I harp on this a LOT...

But I have to do it again.

Just today I was leaving an appointment with a client and I had to drive RIGHT by my favorite consignment shop on the way back to work. SO--I pulled in! There was a rack outside of items for 25 cents!!!! I bought Jere 2 shirts, and me 1. I spent .75 cents. WOOP WOOP!

THEN I went inside and they were having a huge half off sale. I bought Ava 3 pairs of jeans, me 1 pair of black super awesome heels that had NEVER been worn! 

AND I bought Ava a pair of tennis shoes that are a half size too big but it won't be long before they will fit! YAY!

What about you? Have you found any terrific bargains lately?

Old Navy, Sears AND your local consignment shop!

I was VERY excited when I realized that Old Navy and Sears are having HUGE sales. IT's funny... b/c they don't really advertise that very much! They rarely let you become aware of how CHEAP things are.

On a whim I ran into Old Navy when I was waiting for my sister and dad to show up for our lunch date. Rows and ROWS of winter AND summer clothes on sale for men, women and children. I didn't buy anything for me.. man I wanted to!~ But I did get some things for my daughter. 3/4 length shirts that are perfect for this time of year are marked down to $3.00 in the childrens section.

Sears had racks and racks of winter pea coats, nice thick furry vests, jeans, pants, summer tank tops, winter sweaters, belts, and more!

I don't know what your local store has but i'm telling you... this is THE time to be shopping for summer! Stores have stock rooms full of last years clothes and they have to get rid of them. Also a GREAT time to be looking ahead at winter.

your local consignment shop... this is the time when people "Spring Clean." And since most shops(the good ones anyway) only take clothes that are in season or are about to be in season you can find a nice selection of spring and summer clothes RIGHT NOW!

So quit reading, and go save a buck or two :)

The time has come

Rhea Lana's childrens consignment event is coming SOON! Keep an eye out on their website for EXACT details but it tends to be between February and the first of March. So...that means its time to lay those kiddos out and start having a fashion show! Make it fun. My daughter NEVER knows when I am cleaning out her closet she just thinks its fashion show time. So lay everything out, and Rhea Lana's will want it to be IN season or relatively close to season. (Its a pain when you are getting ready to consign but as a shopper... it is SO nice to see only clothes that are in season).

Wash them, go ahead and get them up on hangers. Get those toys, books, baby beds, etc READY to rock and roll!!!
