MarilynJean Marks Canadian Debut into Booming Online Children's Retail Industry

Retail and E-Commerce powerhouses join forces to launch Canada's first
private-sale website offering discount pricing on name brand children's
apparel, toys and gifts

VANCOUVER, April 23, 2012 /PRNewswire/ - Now offering Canadians access to name
brand & stylish children's clothes, toys and gifts at deep discounts,
angel backed MarilynJean is pleased to unveil their ultra-specialized private sale site.  After
a positive period of private beta testing the site launches with a
membership of 20,000.

As Canada's first ultra-specialized private-sale site focused on moms,
babies and kids, MarilynJean is a highly anticipated new player in the
children's private-sale arena.  Entering a market dominated largely by
American competitors, including the Howard Shultz funded Zulily.  MarilynJean is designed for Canadian parents tired of misleading
discount sites that inevitably cost more after shipping and currency
conversion.

MarilynJean is uniquely Canadian and innovative in its ability to
negotiate great prices while maintaining a lean inventory model that
still offers significant discounts to consumers.  This allows buyers to
benefit from grouping buying through exclusive deals offered every 48
to 72 hours.

Founders of MarilynJean include former Indochino first employee Online
Marketing & PR Manager, Jason Leo Carvalho, 3(rd) generation Canadian entrepreneur, Kelita Jean Klein, & former Private
Equity Analyst Filip Stoj.  MarilynJean has also retained a corporate
board of powerful and experienced mothers and Canadian business success
stories including Cathy Thorpe, the former President of Please Mum and
senior executive with Gap Inc., and personal finance author and
television personality, Katie Dunsworth, of The Smart Cookies.

Said Cathy Thorpe, "My enthusiasm for this company is a culmination of
several things that make MarilynJean unique.  The marketing and
e-commerce expertise of this team is undeniable.  But second to that,
MarilynJean is a company that truly stands behind its mission of
helping Canadians get the best possible deal on the most interesting
and sought after children's brands.  And as a mother myself, that is
something I can really get behind."

Starting April 23(th) 2012 MarilynJean will be launching new private-sale events exclusively
to members. Quantities will be limited, so sales will be based on a
first come, first serve basis.

MarilynJean.com is all about focus, focus, focus which enables its
brands to connect emotionally with its shoppers.  Retailers interested
in reaching busy moms who are embracing the private-sale shopping
experience to purchase stylish children's brands can contact buyer@marilynjean.com.  For more information on MarilynJean, or to preview its latest sales,
