oops...the blog got published before my ending!!!
According to Karen Carpenter (I loved her music...and all 70's music in between) "rainy days and Mondays always get me down"...I say give me a rainy Monday and I will shop this town upside down! But I keep asking myself, "how many more necklaces do I need?" and stay tuned to see how I fare with the "Bob Shoes Fall Collection" at Shoe Carnival, because the little voice inside is saying "buy one get second pair 1/2 off"...Houston, we have a problem!!!

Mondays Will Always Be A Good Friend
Monday morning is usually my time to sleep in, sip my morning tea with my breakfast, read the newspaper, check in on facebook and enjoy all the birds enjoying their breakfast at my bird feeders. Monday has turned into a "bonus day" for me. It has allowed me to have my own schedule, time is of no object and it's a good day to regroup, refresh and revitalize.
And Mondays have always been a good day for me to shop...and I have been on the trail blaze of shopping with great deals to share so let's waste no time and get to the good stuff. My hubby and I love...love...love The Gap Outlet store. Everything is marked down from 30% to 60% and of course we had an "iPhone" coupon for another 30% off. We walk in, he goes to the right, I go to the left, we shop for 45 minutes and meet at the cash register...hey it's a system that works for us! I bought 2 shirts and he got 2 shirts and a pair of pants. The total was $189.84, less $55.69, brought our total down to $133.84...not bad!
Onto Elder- Beerman. I was lucky enough to hit the yellow sign sale, which means an additional 70% of the already marked down red priced item. So I found these great pants by Briggs...they fit sublime. Retail for $48.00...marked down to $29.99, less 70% brings them to $8.40. Okay so I bought one in black, tan and green, I could not resist!!! If you are there for the yellow sign sale... SHOP IT!!!
At Macy's shopping the Jewel on sale and because of my necklace addiction I had to have this one marked down from $26 to $13 and of course I didn't need it but it's all about the addition...you understand!!!
Well, you gotta love JCP with their new "Best Price", I'm not sure that I'm a fan yet. However after finding 2 good "finds" on the racks (a beautiful poncho-style top with a fabulous print and a great looking necklace with the status of art-show quality) and paying $5.00 each, maybe my opinion might just change!
And now to one of my fav's...Steinmart, it's a perfect ten in my book. Steinmart is the only store I ever need (I hope their big wigs see this). And love it when their clearance racks offer another 40% off with no limit!!! I bought 3 tops, a picture frame and 2 plates (the plates were only 96 cents and they went down to 58 cents.) So my total was only $45.09, and this is always the best part..."if purchased elsewhere $188.00" and "your Steinmart savings $145.77." Yes I love to see it every time.
And last one to report on is Christopher & Banks...another great store, they are so personable they call every time there is a big sale. After finding nothing on the sale racks I checked out their small selection of jewelry and found a necklace that retails for $15.98, my price...$6.39, of course a no-brainer!
