Getting a Good Deal on Childrens Perfume

If you never want to pay full price for anything you buy childrens perfumes may be a sticky category because name brands hardly ever go on sale. Nevertheless, here are a few ways to still get a better deal when you?re buying a perfume for any child on your list.

Special Offers

Many upscale department stores like Macy?s, Bloomingdales, Nordstrom and the like run frequent promotions on child perfumes where they don?t knock off any thing from the price tag but give you incentives like free toys, cosmetic bags, traveling bags and more. There are more promotions running around the holidays but during other times of the year as well you can get a neat tote bag for yourself when you buy a childs perfume. Some have the Nautica or Polo Ralph Lauren monogram on it which isn?t a bad thing if you?re going to use it yourself.

Childrens Gift Sets

If an average bottle of perfume costs $34, you may be able to get a gift set of that fragrance for $40 which would include an extra bottle of scented lotion and perhaps a soap bar or face cloth. This way not only does it make the packaging prettier butit makes the gift more exciting for the child.

Auction Sites

There may be a perfume you?re looking for which doesn?t really appeal to someone else across the country. He could list a brand new, sealed in box perfume on eBay and you can buy it off him at a reduced price. Always compare prices with other e-retailers so that you can compare shipping and handling costs too.

If the perfume is for your own child you may want to save even more by buying an opened bottle. Someone may have not liked the fragrance after trying it on and you can cash in on their loss. Some people even sell testers which mean that the bottle may be slightly used. Always ask for pictures to see exactly how much fragrance is left in the bottle.

Drug Stores

While drug stores like Walgreens or CVS may not carry the latest and greatest brands of perfume they do carry classics like Witch Hazel Lin Fragance and IKKS Young Man Fragrance for Boys and offer them at lower prices than would a department stores. You are more likely to find a wider choice of children's fragrances in such stores so if you're buying a perfume for a child then this might be the best place to start.
