    Default kicked myself for skipping this shirt at thrift store

    While oneline window shopping today I was surprised to see this shirt
    from Eddiebaur.
    http://www.eddiebauer.com/EB/Women/Sale/index.cat#ppl={type%3A%22transition%22%2CensembleId%3A%2235655%22%2CformatStr%3A%22product%22%2CpassedIdObj%3A{%22ensembleId%22%3A%2235655%22}%2CcategoryId%3A%2221291%22%2CpathInfo%3A%22C1C3C21291%22%2CcolorId%3A%22632%22%2CsizeIdSelected%3A%22-1%22%2CquantitySelected%3A%22-1%22%2CimageName%3A%22EB09IC_0087478_632B1%22%2CimageTypeCode%3A%22B%22%2CcatPath%3A%22~~categoryId%3D21291~~categoryName%3DSALE~~pCategoryId%3D3~~pCategoryName%3DWOMEN~~gpCategoryId%3D1~~gpCategoryName%3DEB%22%2Ccs%3A%220%22}

    It was the exact same shirt right down to the same color that I tried on two days ago at Salvation Army but talked myself out of. So I get the urge to head back there and try it on It was gone. Someone else bought it.

    They had just put out some belts and I have been needing a belt in the correct size for a while now. I've been checking out belts everywhere but not a one has said "Buy me I'm yours", until today.
    I found a lovey genuine full leather braided belt at Salvation Army today. It looked similar (a tad bit prettier IMHO) to this one I saw while window shopping Eddiebauer today

    I bought it for a $1.18 after tax.

    Yeah, I hate that when it happens but if I hadn't wanted to go back to try i ton again I wouldn't have been there when the belts were put out and been able to buy the pretty belt I really needed.


    So it is all good!

    Well I can't see it but any shirt you can get for $1.18 total is one great deal.

    Ooops, my goof. Either way it was a good buy. I can't see the pic, is that really long paragraph of foreign writings the link? If so that is the longest link I've ever seen.

    I have passed up so many things and kicked myself in the rear each time. At least you were able to pick up the belt.

    Yes that was a very long link! LOL I thought it would hyperlink but it didn't for some reason.

    I cut and pasted it in the browser and it link to the specific picture of the shirt.

    The second link was to the similar belt that I bought.

    Love the fact that I got the belt that I needed and although I liked the shirt I didn't need it so it worked out for the best, I guess.

    I sometimes kick myself for buying something also not just passing out something. LOL
