    Talking I admit it... I went shopping!

    I wanted to brag share my recent shopping extravaganza...

    First I popped in to Payless Shoes because they were having a BOGO sale and I need (yes, need) a new pair of sneakers because my last pair met an evil demise. I was looking for a pair of plain sneakers. No such luck... BUT... I found something for DD.

    3 pairs Hannah Montana socks (for Christmas) 5.99
    1 pair plain white sneakers on sale for $5 -- pd$2.50

    total spent $8.49

    Then I went to Fashion Bug... my old clothes don't fit right after the surgery... they keep falling off

    1 pair red capris (I'm short, so they are ankle length) (orig. $34.99)
    1 pair denim capris (orig. 22.99)
    1 red floral tunic (orig. $12.99)
    1 green floral tunic (orig. $12.99)
    1 pink floral tunic (orig. $12.99)
    1 black/silver evening shirt (orig. $17.99)
    1 berry/silver evening shirt (orig $17.99)

    Everything was on clearance, so the price on the tag was less... and then since they had an orange or red tag, they were 50% off the reduced price... and THEN as I was standing at the register, a woman handed me a coupon...

    "original price" would have been over $130!

    My total... after sale & coupon...

    Are you sitting down??? Are you sure???

    $ 17.44!!!!

    I can't be out of money... I still have checks left!
