Good evening, friends!
I’m keeping my fingers crossed that I may actually get out of work a little earlier than normal tonight, which would be amazing, so I can get home to see my favorite Wednesday night shows. I’m telling you…if you aren’t already watching The Middle and/or Modern Family, you are totally missing out!
Some Eats
Last night, I put together a big veggie-loaded salad to bring with me today, which ended up working well around dinner time tonight.
In the mix: romaine lettuce, cukes, yellow grape tomatoes, red bell peppers, corn, onion, pickles, leftover beets, and goat cheese, which all got topped with a generous helping of pineapple-peach salsa. It was amazing.
Some of the rest of today’s eats included some peanut butter and banana-topped rice cakes (recycled photo),
and, of course, one of these. Okay, maybe two. ;)
On another note, I realized that I never shared the new goodies that I got when I went shopping last Friday with my mom at Old Navy.
Here’s the loot:
- Cowl Neck Poncho Sweater
- Flutter Top Tank
- Blue Printed Tank
- Black-White Dolman-Sleeve Top
- Black Pleated Tie-Neck Top
- Roll-Over Wide Leg Lounge Pant
- Blue/Grey Striped 3/4-Sleeve Top (couldn’t find on the website)
By the time all was said and done, I’d say that it turned out to be a pretty successful trip, wouldn’t you?
Bargain shopping success!
The total for everything you see there was right around $75.00, which I was ecstatic about. Plus, I now have $30.00 in Super Cash to spend within the next coming weeks. Luckily, I left a few things behind on Friday that I’ll be able to check for when I go back. Or, I suppoooooose I could do a little Christmas shopping. We’ll see how it goes. ;)
Alrighty folks, gotta jet…looks like it’s time to head home! WOOT!
Question for the Evening:
What stores do you tend to find the best deals/bargains at? Do you work hard to try and find good bargains when shopping?
Ashley @ My Food 'N' Fitness Diaries says
I love your new buys!
Old Navy is a great place to get bargains!! I also love Forever 21 and Target to find great deals. Ross and TJ Maxx is great too!
Pamela says
I was actually just on the Old Navy website last night and thinking how they have such cute fall/winter clothes! Good finds! Forever 21 is one of my go-to stores for bargains, but Express is definitely my favorite! I try to find deals because I am a poor grad student! :)
Erica says
i love forever 21 for a good deal!
i did however, find a good deal at banana republic this weekend where the entire store was 40% off! i got a great trench coat (petite size too!) for 40% off!
Erica @ For the Sake of Cake says
I love to shop for basics at Target! Old Navy is great for that too! I also like to hit up the outlets that are by me!
Savannah @ Sweet and Savvy says
I find the best deals at Marshall’s and TJ Maxx almost always! I also find some obscure awesome food finds at Big Lots! They have Bob’s Red Mill products for SUPER cheap.
Courtney S. says
Funny you mention that, I’ve noticed that Big Lots has A TON of Bob’s products! Random, but cool!
chelsey @ clean eating chelsey says
Love old navy! I usually get a lot of good deals at Kohl’s or JC Penney’s!
Alysha @Shesontherun.com says
I’ve found some great stuff at the goodwill in my town. Lucky brand jeans with the tags still on them for $10. Gap khakis for $4. Thrift stores are underrated! But I also love TJMaxx and Marhsalls for chain stores.
Lindsey says
That is a awesome deal! I love Old Navy for deals! My favorite store is RW&Co but I almost never buy things at full price there. I wait till they go on sale (seems to be every 6 weeks or so) and then I watch Twitter because they’ll have one day sales with an extra 40% off all sale items :)
Laura @ Backstage Pass says
Cute new clothes! I love Old Navy. My only complaint is that none of my local stores seem to carry the pet outfits / accessories anymore!
Colleen @ Jimmy Choos on the Treadmill says
I will splurge on quality products, but will not pay full price for something at a store like Old Navy. Don’t get me wrong, I love Old Navy, but I feel like their price point has risen. I’ve seen some expensive stuff there lately!
Hope says
I love what you got from Old Navy! I definitely need to go there and see what they have! I love browsing their clearance racks. The last time I checked, I ended up getting 2 pairs of really nice jeans for $6 total! Not a bad deal if you ask me! :)
Jodi says
That’s a great bargain! I love how Old Navy always incorporates the latest styles, but keeps prices nice and low. I like everything you got!
Ashley @ Good Taste Healthy Me says
I went shopping this weekend and got 4 new sweaters and a pair of leggings for $69! I was so pumped! I am a total bargain shopper. I love going to Marshalls, TJ Maxx, and Kohls. I can find so much good loot there and never buy anything full price. Clearance, here I come!
Nicole says
Nice finds! I think I need to hit up Old Navy… haven’t been there in forever!
Crystal Coppel says
I LOVE Modern Family!! My brother and Mom turned me onto The Middle last year and I just LOVE that show too! Wednesday night has lots of laughs going on! Awesome score on stuff at Old Navy!
Kim @thefamilypractice says
Courtney did you see that there is a friends and family sale through nov 8? its 30% off so maybe you can get the other stuff you wanted too :)
Its online and in stores. The online code is ONFRIENDS
Shannon says
I love The Middle & Modern Family- they’re the shows that I only watch on Wednesdays.
I find good deals sometimes at Macy’s & JcPenney’s. Macy’s ALWAYS has a One Day Sale like, every day, pretty much and JcPenney’s has some great clothes. I love American Eagle & Old Navy but only like to spend money if the stuff that I like is on sale. If not, forget it! Nice savings, by the way. :) And I love the stuff you bought.
