Shopping Bliss

Today, my lil girl was a real trooper! I had lots of errands to run and was told about a great sale at Liquidation World starting at 9:30 am today... I was in town until 6pm, and then we had the weekly dinner with friends so I just had time to drop off the stuff at home, grab a few more diapers (and the dessert I made... I'll post on that later) and go. Then we found out I forgot to pay for my drivers today... due by midnight (ooops) so we ran back to town to take care of that (and look at a few books for 10 minutes at the book sale in the mall... picked up 10 kids books for $3... I'm on a roll today!). Anyway, here's a pic of the lil cutiepie herself, all decked out in her new sunglasses for summer!


Liquidation World has a bunch of clothes from Please Mum (but mum's the word... shhhh... even though you can totally see the name of the store on the clothes tags). Awesome stuff! Seriously! I got 3 pair shoes and 3 summer hats, a touque for next winter, a really big (but super cute) skirt for when she's heading into age 5, a pair of tights for 12 months... 2 shirts, capris, overall-shorts, shorts, and tights for this summer... a spring jacket and a dress size 2-3... AND I got a hat, socks, and shades for my nephew (due this summer). The final tally? Under $50 (including the taxes)! WHEW! I just HAD to find out what the retail price would have been and after checking the tags (and estimating those that I couldn't find tags on) it would have cost me $330 before taxes otherwise. CRAZY!


Along with that, I had to post pics of some of the other great deals I've gotten in the past couple of months. I managed to grab 2 onesies 12-18mo for $3 total at superstore, and then at Walmart I nabbed 3 12mo sweaters, 2 2 year sweaters, and a 6mo sweater (oops, missed that pic) for a grand total of $13. Chaching in my wallet!

Man, you are awesome at finding great deals! And the clothes look super cute, too! Super job! (Also, if I'm ever in the market for a personal shopper, I am SO calling you...)

You really got some good deals!
I am not a bargain shopper, so I feel really good when I come across a good deal:)

Good deals! I love a couple thrift stores in our area, I always find great deals there too! Not to mention that the season of yard sales is starting soon too!
