Thanks Barb!! There was two Angel statues with a lot of silk Ivy between them on display. A box was behind the Ivy Holding the Ivy in postition I just kindly replaced the Box with the egg!! It looked the same!! HAHAHAHHA
The other one I hid in the crafts section in a huge basket of pillow filler!!! I guess someone thought it would make a very uncomfortable lumpy pillow!!

Wow that is beautiful!!!! I find good deals like that sometimes at my Walmart too!

I LOVE that egg!

Bargains galore!

Di, if we went shopping...me, Lynne, and you---I think we'd need a u-haul attached to the back of the vehicle!

That is the first time I heard of anyone doing that ..Ha ha
YOur a smart cookie......

Glad you got it so cheaply..
Nice combination..

Awww Thanks Barb,, I learned that trick when I got divorced yearsss ago When the girls were in grade school I couldn't afford name brand Tennis shoes soo I would hide them in the store( shoes in their sizes plus a 1/2 size larger) ) wait for them for them to go on sale( buy one get one 1/2 price) then I'd go find the shoes and ~~waaa laaa ``The girls had namebrand shoes!! I tell ya when your poor you learn to do what you have to do so your kids will have nice things!!

Yep Loz I bet your right~ We'd need a uhaul!!!!! LOL

I wont tell if you dont tell......I really liked what you did with it .
I gurantee, I been on the rough side of money lots of times.....
I scrip and save every way possible.....That is why I love this seed swap stuff so .........I feel like a millionere with all the flowers outside..
Good trick I think..

Ha ha

My first day of good deals and I thought I should share. I bought some $55 Sketcher flip-flop sandal things for 6.59. And I bought the girls several shirts regularly 9.99 for 1.99, and a pair of Levi capri's regularly 36.00 for 4.19. Woohoo, apparently I'm not too old to learn something new!! Thanks ladies.

Thats some amazing savings Sarah!

Way to go Sarah!

As summer stuff goes on sale I buy it a size bigger for Athena for next year!

You got some great deals Sarah!

I do the same thing loz!

Excuse me Sarah,

Where were you shoppin at ?

Oh how we love to the bargain.......Helps out fit the kids........I was at sears and another store about a month ago......spring sales, was buying Haley clothes for $3.00 ......jammies , tops teas,

Howerver their too big yet..ha ha
Good girl happy shoppin. :ding: :ding:

Sears. They are having their huge sales, in fact, all retail (Penny's, Dillards) do their summer clearout in July. Or so I'm told.

I'm always buying stuff too big for the girls next year. DH thinks it's "wasteful" but every summer he refuses to buy them new clothes because they are too expensive.

February is a good time to get deals on winter clothes in places like Penneys, I've found.

I think that February is the ultimate bargain time for shopping. IF you can find the sizes you need.

Sears huh?

I dont often like the selection there.......They arent reall large here.. The store.........SOme of the nice persons who work there tell me to go else where for bargains???????????
I do..TJ maxx and another one I like.

No offence intended.......Just our dumb area.

We have a small sears as well. But, I live in a small town the only department stores are sears, penny's, and dillards. Unless you consider our one walmart and one target.

Isn't someother outfit buying out Sears?////Ours been downsizing for about a year.........
Makes one angry what you buy this year , you cant get parts for it next year.. It is the way to make one buy everything yearly.

Well, well, well.....it's been a while since I posted in here---but guess what?

We went to Fashion Bug yesterday right?

I got a pair of Capri's that are so cute for $6.98 and then I got 2 pairs of flats for 4.98 each. Camo(but cute), and a green pair with gold charms on them.

I was happy with that. Then me and mom got home and we found out that we got coupons for there in the mail! Mom had spent about $65 and one of the coupons was if you spend $100 you got $40 off. So we went BACK to Fashion Bug so she could get a price adjustment....so she spent the same amount and got pants and a shirt for free basically.

I used my coupon I had and for $38 I got jeans that were normally $29.99, 3 pairs of drawstring knit pants for $5.14 each(normally $12.99), a purse for $3.19(normally 19.99), and 2 belts(normally 16 and 14 bucks). Not too shabby when you consider I got 4 new pairs of pants + the purse and belts. Woohooo....I love a good deal. And I needed new pants.

Oh and I got Athena a pair of shoes at Peebles for two something. Those little croc type shoes that are rubber with the holes in the front and the strap at the back......can't beat that!

Awesome deals Loz!!!!!!

loz

Loz is a showoff.....Bidding.

:ding:

Good buys for sure .Are you wrapping them for the Present room?

Jess, you know I love a good deal!

No barb, not for the present room! For me!

I did get 2 boxes today....total weight was 48 pounds. Now they are for the present room and need wrapped. Lots of things for my 3 best friends.

Do you get large packages delivered to your house every day??

Loz.......

If you run out of folks to buy for, you can always add Dodge to your list..

Loz, Doesn't it feel so great to get good deals? Kind of gives me a high

I honestly think when I get a good deal I have Seretonin released into my brain! I'm not kidding.

This time of year I get lots of packages! UPS and Fedex get sort of tired of coming here I bet.

You better find some excuse...... :ding:

The UPS man said to me the other day....you must be Christmas shopping because you have been getting a lot of packages lately.

Today I got UPS and Fedex both here!

:ding:

Some one has lots of money.

No, not really at all....I just bargain shop and it's getting close to Christmas. I wish I had a lot of money though!

If you town has it this store is a great place to find amazing deals on clothing and some home decor

Bealls outlet mondays if you are 60 or over you get a certain amount discount and on friday anyone under 60 gets a discount to and everyday most items are all marked down they even have things that are 95% of. I went their the other day got 2 pairs of desinger jean and thery were aroun 50 each on sale i got them both for 28.32 and their was nothing wrong with them at all.... Hey i have a question does anyone know why they have done away with size 32 in lentgh for mens jeans all i can find is 34 in legnth now and its starting to make me mad because i go barefoot alot and end up getting holes in them and it looks tacky to roll them up...

Which gender are you ?

If your a lady cut them and hem them.

Walmart is having a sale on jeans this week.I think $7.00 dont know about the sizes......I think HD wears 30 length.
I like 32 and dragging.

you can find 32, but they are hard. that is the most popular size. lately, i'll see maybe 3 pr of 32 length, then bunches of 30's and a few 34's.

Yea, thats all i see to jiffy it gets frustrating but i will survive. Oh and thanks for the tip off on walmart dodge! Ill have to get there earlier in the mornings that way i might find 32's...

By the way HAPPY NEW YEAR YALL

Back at you.

I can't get anywhere to shop the after season sales.....it won't stop snowing.

i go to the mall and shop er day whenever someone takes me im addicted and i didnt have a chance to look for jeans while i was there because my grandma needed my help finding things for her.
