Where do Kindergarten teachers buy those stupid sweaters w/ 85 lbs of embroidery dangling off them?

Coldwater Creek?

1. Whoever wears things like that should be burned alive.

They're threatening the public's safety and mental well-being.

2. Ross?

4. at the Ross's near me you need a valium and a shot of jack daniel's before you even thin of going in

3. the women that lives next to me wears those, she's not a teacher (thank gawd).

anyhow she sports one of those with her mom jeans. She's around mid 40's but she dresses like she's much older. She also had a yes on prop hate so technically she's dead to me, sure if her house was on fire i'd call the 911, no reason for her kids to suffer.

5. QVC

My mother in-law loves 'em.

[Love Bug]

7. Yep. Those look like Quacker Factory sweaters to me.

[femmocrat]

16. I don't think they are Quacker Factory.

The labels don't look like QF labels and I don't recognize those two designs. QF has kind of toned down their patterns the past couple of years. You can probably tell that I've been watching QVC for years! LOL

6. Admit it. You secretely want one.

You're just looking for some hints as to where to shop without coming right out and asking.

You ain't foolin' me.

[LaraMN]

8. Hahaha!

No.

10. That sounds like a pickle store.

:P

14. It would be about a 1000 times better if it were a pickle store!

Me no likey the Dillard :)

11. My wife owns a sweater like the bottom one! She works in an elementary

school and wears it every Halloween!

[Greyskye]

12. Ditto.

I think she finds dressing up for holidays at least as much fun as the kids do.

Doesn't bother me as long as I don't have to be seen in public with her. :evilgrin:

13. I think those were stolen off the back of a fourth grade teacher in my kids' school.

I've always wanted to have a "Bad Holiday Sweater Party" (wait, that's redundant ... there is no such thing as a "good" one of these butt-ugly travesties).

[femmocrat]

15. Awww... c'mon! Lighten up!

Those sweaters are gawdy, but colorful and just right for kindergarten teachers!

I must have 20 different Christmas sweaters (although not as ornate as those). I got them different places, including QVC and various department stores. The two you show don't seem to be from Quacker Factory, though.

The kids really do notice what we wear, especially jewelry for some reason! :)

[LadyoftheRabbits]

18. I agree

I remember liking the bright, busy ones when I was in elementary school. :P

17. Obtained from their grandmothers

Who have friends who spend too much time at yard sales and flea markets. Or, at least that's where I get all of my appliqued sweaters.

19. thrift stores

just watch your wallet.
