A Little Spring In My Step!

Well, it's supposed to be Spring but you wouldn't know it by looking out the window and feeling the temperatures when you walk outside.  It's currently 45 degrees, damp, and the sun is nowhere in sight.  What kind of Spring is this!? I want the sun, I need the sun (vitamin D deficient).  This weather has got me down, so what do I do all day since I have to be inside?  I at least try to make myself feel better and put a little spring in my step, by going into my happy place, my closet.  I spend time in there putting together some outfits to grab when I am in a hurry to get dressed and go (once the sun finally shows it's face!!!)  
I had my eyes on this car length coat for a few weeks at Marshall's, but didn't want to pay the price.  It was originally being sold for $110, Marshall's was selling it for $59.99, too high for me, it was reduced to $39.00, waited it out and finally picked it up on the clearance rack for $29.00, YAY for me, and it fits perfect!

On The Hunt For A Bargain

My sister and I were out on the hunt for bargains last week.  We stopped at Kohl's and were browsing around.  Both of us were looking for active wear, for our daily walks when the weather breaks.  We were in the women's department, and of course got distracted checking out the 80% off sale racks, never pass those up, you can find great bargains on them.  I came across this jacket on the discount rack, that I fell in love with when it first appeared in the store, but would never, ever, ever pay $86.00 for.  Way too much money!  The jacket was marked down to $17.20.  Lucky for me I thought, I have a $15.00 rebate card for Kohl's that I just got in the mail, that means I will only have to pay $2.20 for the jacket.  I was excited beyond belief when I got to the register, I couldn't contain myself looking for the rebate card in my handbag.  I FORGOT IT AT HOME!  I bought the jacket anyway, then took it back, had them re-ring it and got the best deal I ever had for an article of clothing- $2.20 for an $86.00 jacket (savings of $83.80)!  This is a dress up or down, go anywhere, go with anything jacket, that I will get a lot of use out of.  So, what are you waiting for, go, go, go to Kohl's, right now!
