Shopping with my sis!

   Well my sister was in town for a few days and we shopped till we dropped! I know I know I was just complaining about my husbands shopping but My sister and I had so much fun and found so many amazing deals I just had to share. I got some awesome deals at a store called Charming Charlie's in the mall where I got a purple wallet to go with my Coach purse my husband got me for our anniversary, it was originally $15 and it was marked down to $5 and rang up at $1 (how awesome is that!!) I also got another purse there for fall, kind of a greenish yellow color but really cute, it was originally $30 marked down to $20 and rang up for just $5 (yay again!!) and another wallet now to go with that purse which was originally $10 and marked down to $5 (this actually rang up at $5 though my fingers were crossed  that I would get another surprise at the register lol) Now that was some great shopping, 2 wallets and a purse for $11, even the dollar store couldn't have beat that deal!
   I also had my first shopping experience with TJ Max. I always hear good things about them but for some reason I had never been inside there, until now, I will definitely be back to that store. I got 2 awesome shirts and a great pair of pants for $27 (not bad at all especially since they were on clearance and originally would have cost me $57) Okay so I won't keep naming off every single thing I purchased but you get the idea. I love to shop but I love it even more when I find deals like this, probably because I have become so cheap with my money (more so when I am buying for myself) I can see something I really really want at the store but before I even think about buying it I think about the price (can I get it cheaper somewhere else? Will it be going on sale soon?) then I think about how much I need it or will use it and does the need and use justify the price? If so I purchase it and if not I will gladly walk away from it. I think my sister was a little surprised to see that it's not easy for me to just spend money on myself, I look for the best deals and end up passing up some great items and I never used to be like that, if I saw something I wanted and I had the money to buy it I would and not think twice, but I'm not like that anymore and I think it comes with getting a little older and a little wiser with my money.

   Well I just wanted to share my wonderful shopping experience with everyone and I will try to have a new topic for you when I return. As always I hope everyone has a great day and something to smile about!
