A Thrifty Buzz

Do you ever get a tingly feeling inside from when you get stupendous thrifty deals? I went shopping today and got some great deals. Of course, I had to share the good news with my thrifty moms.
Today I stopped by the consignment store to drop off another tote. (I am pleased that we are getting rid of all our baby and children’s things. I’ve been taking in a tote about every week.) While I was there I saw they were having 75% off their winter clothing. Wow! What a deal!
Consignment store prices are usually pretty good. Sometimes there are items that are way overpriced, but for the most part you can find some good deals. Imagine getting 75% off those prices.
I stocked up on sweaters, jackets, blue jeans, long-sleeved shirts, and all kinds of winter goodies. Now I have to put it all downstairs and label it appropriately. Another great thing is that I had a credit for all the things I’ve sold so far, so I didn’t have to pay for any of my purchases.
So, if you’re wondering what I got . . . I got over 40 items for $50! 
Awesome! You rock, Karen!
(I, too, get tingly.)
Thanks Angie. There’s nothing like a good bargain. I have to admit that I did feel a little guilty for getting so much stuff, since I got some good deals at Sears over the weekend. The bargains I got were hard to pass up. My daughter just needs some pants for next winter and we’re all set!
You did great! I, too, love deals like that.
Thanks Revka. I am quite pleased with my bargains.
You are one fo the few people that I know of besides me that consistantly get the great deals. Although I have hit a dry spot lately. I can’t wait until next weekend!
You know I love a good deal. There’s something about hunting and conquering and then feeling like you walked away paying too little for something.
