So we are a couple of days in to the new year; how's it treating you so far?
On New Year's Day, the Cat and I headed over to Dillard's (a local department store) for their big sale- additional 50% off of all markdowns. I had a game plan, having gone in the day before to see where I wanted to start and what I wanted to get.
On top of my list were Christmas ornaments; they had some gorgeous pieces that would complement my tree and help fill it out. I made a beeline for the second floor and got everything on my list, minus one item.
Then we headed over to the clothing section, where I got the dress I had my eye on, and then downstairs to lingerie where I scored the two bras I
may have hidden at the bottom of the bin the day before. We then headed over to the jewelry section where I nabbed the necklace I had wanted (and a couple of other pieces, including a charm for my kiddo). The Cat and I also each got a pair of matching leopard print slippers that are ridiculously comfy and look like the shoes I just ordered online from Steve Madden (those are pictured below).
I know it sounds like we went a little crazy, and maybe we did, (oh, did I mention when we went back upstairs I found another dress that I
had to buy?!) but the deals are really amazing. I got hundreds of dollars of Christmas decorations for $57!
So now on to my regularly scheduled post. I am still obsessed with leopard, so when I saw the picture below on pinterest, I immediately started looking around the internets for those shoes. I was taken to a number of places that all basically said the same thing- sold out.
I ordered the shoes on the right- before the Dillard's sale. I think I may have possibly purchased more things after Christmas this year than leading up to it. I got free shipping, plus I got a percentage back since I used
ebates. If you aren't signed up for Ebates, you really should consider it. I have been signed up for a while, but really only recently started using it. I have already gotten back over $40, just by making online purchases that I would be making anyway. (Here's one example- I got 10% back for a purchase at Onlineshoes.com- that worked out to be $10 back on top of the coupon I was able to use from Ebates). If you're interested, you can click the link
here and sign up. I am not getting paid or anything to talk about this; I just actually really like it! I mean, come on, who doesn't like getting (at least some of) their money back?!
And now I will stop rambling and let you get back to your day.
I hope your new year is off to a fantastic start!
