How to Save at Carter’s: A Complete Guide

You love Carter's for cute, durable outfits, and you also want to stretch every dollar. Here's your straightforward plan to use rewards, time the biggest promos, and stack savings the smart way so you pay less for styles your kids will outgrow fast.

💡 Hack #1: Join Carter's Rewards

Carter's Rewards gives you 1 point per $1, and 100 points = $5 reward. Rewards work at Carter's, OshKosh B'gosh, and Skip Hop. They expire 45 days after being issued, so use them promptly and plan redemptions around big promos.

💡 Hack #2: Consider the Carter's Credit Card (VIP+)

The Carter's Credit Card adds perks like free standard shipping every day, 2x points on purchases, cardmember-only promos, and a strong first-purchase discount. Combine with rewards and coupons for maximum savings.

💡 Hack #3: Doorbusters & Clearance = Deepest Discounts

Focus your cart around Doorbusters and Clearance. Major promos often exclude them, but rewards dollars can still be applied. Watch for Carter's signature $5 bodysuits and $10 pajamas during doorbuster events for unbeatable value.

💡 Hack #4: Sign Up for Emails & Texts

Subscribe to unlock a welcome code and get first alerts on doorbusters, sitewide promos, and members-only offers. Easy win to stay ahead.

💡 Hack #5: Time Your Hauls Around Big Sale Moments

Build bigger carts during Black Friday, Labor Day, and Memorial Day sales. Size up for next season so your kids can grow into the savings.

📈 Bonus Tips: Stack The Smart Way

• Order of operations: Clearance → Doorbusters → Rewards → Coupon.
• Rewards + coupons: Both can be used in one order. Rewards usually apply before coupon discounts.
• Free Store Pickup: Skip shipping fees and grab orders the same day.
• Cashback portals: Activate before checkout when available to layer extra savings.

🚚 Shipping, Pickup, Returns & Price Adjustments
