    Default BWWWAAAHHAAAA!

    Last night I was watching tv and I saw an ad for the Bealls one day sale today.
    I remembered that when dh was in the hospital over the new year his Mom gave him a gift card for $50 to Bealls from his Grandparents which he handed right over to me because he is such a sweetheart that way.

    I never used it.

    So I thought last night, I am going to get me a nice new purse!

    So I got all dolled up--you know, shower, shampoo, scents, spackle, chicken wire lol--and headed for the mall.

    Oh my word I got:

    1 purse--$40 at2 off marked to $20 THEN they gave me1/2 off the $20to $10 and finally off $4 more--

    Yes $40 purse for $6 freaking bucks! I love it!

    Then I went to the teen section and got my dd who is 12 and 5'7 a top for $7.99 an under tank to go with another top---orginal price was $28 it was red tagged to $7 then they took $2.80 off that and I got it for $4.20

    I still had money and I didn't realize the stuff I was buying was going to be less than the final tags so I went back to purses to the one I really really want and decided to get it and throw some of my weekly allowance at it to make up the difference...

    Purse orginal price-$44--$17.60 off=$26.40

    Total without sale=$119.99 plus about $9 sales tax

    My cost=FREEEEE! or $48.27!

    2 purses and 2 shirts for dd.

    Then I had a coupon and ate chick-fil-a for $2.97 for sandwich, fries and a drink!

    I had a good day. I got to shop for free and I got a cheap meal that came out of my allowance.

    Still a no spend month so far!

    Amount of Free items 2012 $391.33


    Debt #2 12/31/12 CC $901.88
    Debt #3 12/31/12 $3648.83

    Madness, mayhem chaos...my work here is done!

    Oooohhhhh I *lurve* them both! Good for you I picked up a really funky metallic gold hobo bag there a while back at 75%off for $6. I just love it too. Enjoy your new bags .
