Guest guest Posted June 22, 2004 Report Share Posted June 22, 2004 Old Navy usually has pj's with snaps up the inside. I live in a very small town so I have all of my extended family and friends on the lookout for pj's with snaps instead of feet whenever they are in the big city. But, I have been really lucky to pick up most of Rose's pj's at Savation Army here in town. Mostly they are boys pj's for some reason. On another note, as Rose has grown and her little legs have gotten longer, having snaps seems less and less important. cramik412 cramik@...> wrote:I also found some wonderful snap pjs at Kohls and Walmart.

The person I took them to was so cheap because there wasn't much labor to it. Just an idea....
