Good Deals

I think bargain shopping is part of my heritage...my mom,sisters,and I do it,my aunts do it,and my Grandma D. does it...I'd say we are all pretty good at it too. 

You can't beat a good deal!! 

Mom went to Sears the other day after she took me to work. When I came home there was a bag on the sofa.

I will admit the thought did cross my mind that it was something for me.

Alas,I looked in the bag,only to find a shirt for my dad.

I was a little disappointed.

Then my mom started telling me about how it was on clearance and she got another amount off. 

Let me remind you,we are not mall shopping people. When we want clothes we go to thrift stores and buy it second hand-we let someone else pay the ridiculous prices.

Apparently she got some sort of card there and so she earned another $7 off,so she said we should go in sometime. 

We ventured in there today and left with a sweatshirt for my brother...

and a scarf for me. 

I really wasn't going to get it...

but my mom insisted.

Really,she did...

I walked away from it and she kept going on about how nice and spring-like it was...

so I went back and got it.

It was a $24 dollar scarf on clearance for $11.99,with an additional 30% off...

and then my mom had $7 dollars off...

so we got the scarf for a little over $1 ! 

it's double sided polka dots!! 

We walked out of Sears today with a shirt and a scarf and the bill was only a little over $10.

I'm sure my sisters and I will pass on the heritage to our children and grandchildren of bargain shopping...

because who doesn't like a good deal?!?!?
