We don’t have kids. But we’re petite and on a budget, so we buy kids' clothes. That’s why it’s so cool that Whippersnappers sells small stuff at affordable prices. Kids Danskos, for instance, run about $20 cheaper than women’s footwear of the same brand name. You’ll get a similarly good deal on sweatshirts and T-shirts. If you actually have kids, Whippersnappers offers adorable outfits, including ladybug dresses, pink tutus and, for the more mechanically inclined, T-shirts with big yellow trucks on them. The downtown retailer is locally owned. That means we can’t think of a better place to pick up a screaming deal on our next pair of tennis shoes.
Whippersnappers: 127 N. Higgins, #B, 728-7400.
