Such a deal

I've been waiting for a week to buy these cute sweaters for Brayden for next year. I had a 15% off coupon that started yesterday, so I wanted to wait until that started. But I was worried about sizes running out, so I've been checking the website religiously because they never have the sizes in the store. Well, last night a friend and I went to Children's Place just to check if they had anything before I ordered online and they had just put everything an additional 50% off instead of 30% and they had tons of sizes and selection! Awesome, that never happens!!!! So all for $42 I got a 3-in-1 coat, two sweaters, a sweatshirt, a fleece, a button-down church shirt, a pair of pajamas, a scarf (Brayden is in love with scarves right now), and gloves. And the gloves and scarf match. And then when I was checking out I asked if I could still use my coupon online because I wanted to buy some shoes that they didn't have in the store, and they said yes and gave me a free shipping code. So I went home (after quick trip to Victoria's Secret to get a really great bra. Love the bras, hate their advertising.) and ordered three pairs of shoes online for $15. It should have been $13, but after all that I remembered the free shipping code and I forgot to use my 15% off. Oh well. Even without it I still think everything was a really good deal. So let me give Children's Place some free advertising and tell everyone to Go! My favorite part was the coat. $8.50 and it has a zip-out fleece, detachable hood and outer shell. So I don't have to buy a windbreaker, and he has a super warm winter coat for $8.50. Sweet.

I love a good deal! This past summer I went to The Childrens Place near us and found lots of cute things. My favorite things were there ties for little boys marked waaaaay down to .59cents, and the tiny swim trunks for $2.99!

I miss shopping with you Natalie! Can you believe I haven't bought a coat, gloves, or hat since we moved from Michigan?

I am so glad someone else gets the same kicks as I do...give me a good deal and I'm happy for a week! The Children's Place usually comes through. Glad you had fun.

I usually end up going shopping and trying to use the coupon before it's even good- don't send me coupons I have to wait to use! I'm not a patient person! So way to go, I love finding good deals too!

Don't you almost feel like a better person when you get a good deal? I am going there tomorrow- I'll tell the manager to thank you for the free advertising!

You are funny Nat. You made a similar post last Easter. You are very patient and a good bargain shopper. I should learn a few things from you.
