HiYa

Hey everyone! All zero of you people actually reading my blog =)~
Is it possible to have a negitive amount of readers? hmmm.... anyways! On to my meaningless rambling! Away!

Too much caffine - that's what I get for having dr. pepper for breafast! Sugar & caffine, better together!

Anyways... I thought I would write for my first post how to score some sweet deals, mostly on makeup and clothes but these "tips" apply to pretty much anything you buy.

1) Sign up for email newsletters for any brands that you even might want to buy from. Lots of companies have freinds & family sales and you will usually get first alerts clearance sales. Free Shipping codes, etc.

2) Check out other websites. You can use google but RetailMeNot.com is an exclent source of sale codes. They even have ratings and expiration dates- that's very important! Takes the guess work out of if the codes actaully work or not!

3) If you don't like it - Don't buy it, no matter how cheap it is! Spending money on something that you will not use even if it's a fantastic deal is not really saving money. If it doesn't bring you joy and you can't / won't use it -It's just a waste.

4) Stalk your favorite store's websites. The best way to shop for great deals is online. It's less time consuming! Costs nothing in gas and is great in the wintertime because its too dang cold to go outside anyways!!! You will find good clearance sales this way - clearance sales are a good way to buy things to try out - something that you wouldn't normally wear or try instead of spending alot on something just to find out you don't like it!

Other things to consider:

Return Policies! Always check the return policies and remember - they tend to be different for sale/clearance items.


Well, that's all I've got in my lil' ol mind right now so I hope this helps you out! Even though it is Monday - have a great day everyone (pretend it's friday if you have to! ha!)


The "B"


So the question of the day is....(drum roll..) - What are your favorite "get a good deal everytime!" shopping sites? Mine? It's a tie - Beautycrunch.com and Sephora's (search "sale") clearance section. Let me know!
