I say Sears too. Also Belk's or Macy's. I think there are lots more coming out with first communions and Easter on the way.
Have you tried Marshall's or TJ Maxx? I have gotten some deals there before.
Hello Moms/Dads - I need some advice as to where I can purchase a toddler boys white baptism outfit size 3T. I checked out a few places online, but the prices are a little more than what I'd like to spend. Any advice? I'd be willing to purchase in store or online. Thanks in advance!

We used the white version of this one as for my son who was a ring bearer in my friend's wedding. It's still a little pricey at $50, but much cheaper than most communion outfits. Otherwise, I would just do an internet search for a white suit and you might be able to get one cheap (or just get some white slacks and a white shirt).

We actually had good luck at Nordstrom. I bought his in the store but they also have them online.

Hi, Paula! Congratulations on your son's baptism! I bought my daughter's gown at an unexpected place--Babys 'R' Us! I hope you find what you're looking for!

I bought my son's baptism outfit off of Ebay - it was handmade and I even got his initial embroidered on it. It also came with booties and a bonnet - oh, and it WAS a dress - I'm very traditional!! I paid $115 for it - more than I would normally pay for an outfit that would only be worn once, but I reasoned that it was such a special day... Why not make it a special outfit? I also got his photo taken in it by a photograper, and they are some of my most precious photos of my son. You might check on etsy.com too for other handmade baptismal things... Good luck!
My boys were baptized as infants, but I got both their outfits at Sears of all places. My oldests was a little shorts/overalls type outfit (he was June in Texas) and my youngest was a little pants and shirt/vest outfit. Both are very cute and I paid less than $40 for each of them.
Also, you might be able to purchase a white tux from a bridal store for $60 or under. I've purchased two tuxes for my boys when they were in weddings and I paid $50 for one and $45 for the other.
The KidsEverywear consignment is going on now at the Morrisville Outlet Mall. They may or may not have one, but it's worth a shot. And I'm sure you'd find some other stuff you'd like anyway. You can go to KidsEverywear.com to get all the info you'd need. Hope that helps!!
I agree with looking on eBay. I just bought my daughter a brand new smocked dress for her baptism for $40. They have all kinds of different outfits for boys though. I actually just sold a Strasburg outfit that my son wore one time in a wedding when he was 3 for $30. I had paid over $80 for it so you can definitely get a bargain there. Good luck!
Babies R Us has them where I live.
Check the consignment sales in the area. It's consignment season...there is no guarantee that you will find something, but I have seen some on occassion and it is definitly worth the money. Try kidsconsingment.com for a listing of sales and dates.
Usually the JCPenney store here in Raleigh has alot of options, so Durham probably does also. I would choose a weekday and call them to ask for the kids dept, then ask if they have them in 3T sizes. If not, their online catalog may. Also some of the Catholic and Christian stores carry these items year round. But with spring here now, perhaps some white suits with be out and you could use that as well.
Best wishes.
I wanted to suggest have your tried Ebay? You also may have to have someone make it, especially if you want something all white etc... as most baptismal outfits are for for infants or toddler sizes. They too can be quite pricey as many are made to be handed down in a family as a heirloom or keepsake item.
I bought my sons at JCPenney, they have a really big selection here in Florida not sure about NC, I also checked Babies R' us as well, Hope this helps =)
babies r us had them
I don't know where you live but in Murfreesboro, Tn. on Memorial Blvd. between the intersections of N. Broad St. and Northfield Blvd. there is a small store named Tienda Garibaldi which sells very inexpensive boys and girls baptism outfits.
