I am NOT a bargain shopper. I try, but I fail miserably. I admire people who are good at bargain shopping and who always find cute things at shocking prices. Unfortunately, as much as I try not to be the way I am, I am notorious for always buying things at the full price and sometimes it can get kind of expensive especially if we are talking about clothes or shoes. I always tell Tim that it's ok though. Just like he used to collect baseball cards, I collect clothes. And I have a pretty decent collection... no Marc Jacobs or Jimmy Choos but maybe someday... ;)
BUT, BUT! I have redeemed myself for years to come! This weekend I found a $140 blazer at Ann Taylor for $10. I. AM. NOT. KIDDING. I thought that the tag had been misprinted and it was actually marked down to $100 (which still would have been good!) But, nope! The lady said that it really was $10. And it was cute! (Usually I am not a huge fan of Ann Taylor-it seems kind of old but I went in on Saturday and found a few cute things!) After finding the jacket, I proceeded to find some REALLY cute chocolate brown pants to go with it (unfortunately not as good of a deal) and it made it all the more attractive. Even if I didn't find cute pants to match it, I just had to buy it to say that I got a $140 jacket for $10. That is absolutely jaw dropping, especially considering my luck at finding bargains. So, maybe there is hope yet for me to find good deals and to become a better bargain shopper...that would make Tim so happy!
