Bargain Lady

Hello Friends!

As many of you know I like Bargains!

Especially the 70-90% Off ones!

I can thank my parents for this!

They're both very talented in finding

a "Sweet Deal"

When going shopping I

RARELY

pay the original price.

It's my

"Inner-Bargainista"

So,

Yesterday I went to Michaels to purchase some recipe Cards

[F.Y.I. They sell a pack of 20 for just $1.00]

and while I was there, my sister and I stumbled up on this:

In case my picture isn't doing it justice

(Which it isn't)

It's a 3-tiered Velvet Jewelry Stand.

I've been on the hunt for one of these for almost a year now.

Low and behold.

There she was

Just Beckoning to me:

"Holly, Buy me!'
"Buy Me!"

"I'm only $10.00"
"And I used to be $25.00"

"Buy me!"

And that's exactly what I did.

I got her!

(Assuming my fabulous new Jewelry stand is a female)
for just

TEN WHOLE DOALLRS!
The cashier told me that they'd JUST recieved them in the store THAT day

&

I got the VERY LAST one!

Talk about some

FAVOR!

Here she is all dressed up:

Isn't she beautiful!

Now, as some of you may know

earlier this week I had a Job Interview

(Details to come later).

I don't know about you

But, I personally, just don't feel it's appropriate to wear

Open Toed Shoes to an interview.

I think I read that somewhere...

Anyway, So as I was choosing my outfit for the day,

I started looking at my shoes and discovered something VERY SAD!

I did not own a SINGLE pair

of

Black Close Toed Heels.

I know right!

OUTRAGEOUS!

So, I decided that, today was the day,

I would go on the quest for a nice pair of Black, Close Toed Heels

(Preferably Wedges; I like those better)

& so I set out on my adventure!

First stop

ROSS: Criteria Not Met.

Second Stop

TJ MAXX: Found, However not sure.

Side Note: As I was trying these shoes on, a woman, whom I have never seen or met before,

asked me what size shoe I wore.

So I told her.

Then she asked me if I would try a pair of boots on for her

so she could see if they would fit her daughter

who wears about the same shoe size as I do.

So, I did!

And they were so CUTE!

And thus, we determined if they would fit her daughter or not.

Glad I could lend my "Shoe Wearing Services"

Anyhow. Back to the Black heels!
They met the Criteria

To a "T"

BUT, the woman I tried the boots on for,

told us there was a 70% off sale on the shoes at Dillards.

So we, my friend Brittany and I , decided we'd check there before making the Final Purchase.

Third Stop:

Dillards: Criteria Not Met.

Fourth Stop:

JC Penny:Criteria Not Met.

Fifth Stop:

Kohl's: A Little "Sumthin' Sumthin"

I've been wanting a Pair of Oxfords for quite some time.

And while I was looking through the shoe selection at Kohl's

I came across these adorable

METALLIC OXFORDS!

Who's ever heard of such a thing!

Now, Originally they cost

$34.99

What did I pay for them you ask?

ONLY..

Drum Roll Please..

FOUR DOLLARS.

Yes, you heard me correctly

F-O-U-R DOLLARS!
Needless to say I was/am ecstatic!

Can't wait to bust them out!

And right next to them were these adorable sandals:

I'd seen them back in the summer but, they didn't have my size

Originally they Cost

$34.99 as well

and I only paid

$6.99!

I'm telling you

LOOK FOR BARGAINS PEOPLE!

You'll be surprised at what you can find!

However, I didn't find what I'd originally been searching for

So, the quest continued..

Sixth Stop:

Target: Criteria Not Met
And the Seventh Stop well there was NO Seventh Stop.

Because,

I went Back to TJ MAXX and got these Beauties:

I am so excited.

Not only because they met the Criteria

BUT

because, originally they cost

$85.00

and I only paid

$20.00

for them!

Quite the shopping extravaganza if I do say so myself!

Now, I'm off to watch The Princess and The Frog with my sister!

Do you have any Sweet Bargains

or

Recipe's you'd like to share?

Have a blessed Night!
