The Master of Sales

I went shopping today with Alex, and I spent a total of $37. You may say, "ok, no biggie, you probably got two shirts or something." But no, I am the Master of Sales, and I stretched every dollar.

At the beginning of the summer I saw these cute halters at Anne Taylor for about $40. I didn't get them then because I was NOT going to pay $40 for a cotton jersey halter with no special embellishments or anything.
Then, yesterday, I remembered that halter I looked at a couple months ago and thought "I bet it's on sale now!" And I checked the website and it was on sale for $15 on the website. I need some sleeveless shirts asap for summer, so I didn't want to order it online. I went to the mall and bought it and now I am the proud owner of a navy blue with white polka dot halter for $15.

We sauntered over to Old Navy and there was a $2.99 sale, which was just screaming my name. I got three striped tank tops (a purple/violet, a navy/teal and a black/white), two short sleeve boat necks (one navy/teal, one violet/purple), and two pairs of XXL boys' boxers (both black, one with multi colored stripes, one with multi colored skulls). My tally there was about $23.

Oh, and Alex scored a free Dark Knight "WHY SO SERIOUS?" shirt (made with an american apparel tee, too!) from her city job, so that was just a bonus.

So that comes to one free Dark Knight tee, two short sleeved tees, three tanks, one halter, and two pairs of boxers for around $38. That averages to about $4 an item.


Beat that.

All due respect, I could beat that with two hands tied behind my back! Omgosh, not hard at all to beat! :)
