I love a good bargain...by Divinity

“omg...I do love a bargain...my roomy and I went to Goody's after seeing the new Bridget Jones Movie.....( it was good......not as good as the first one....)....
anyway......

“Shop till ya drop!”

“get this woman some oxygen, stat!”

“div dear, your math doesn't add up.

Must be divinityland math. ;-)

Anyway, good shopping!!!”

“see yall, she really is a girly girl on the inside!”

“Guys.....She probably got an extra 20% off the lowest marked price. Divinity, day after Thanksgiving, I was at Dillard's Dept. Store and in the Housewares section I got 75% off the lowest marked price...which was already 50% off. Nirvanna!!! They had to get this kid to bring a cart from the shipping dept. to get it all out to my car. Took care of 3 people for X-mas and only spent around $50. I know you understand. (guys...I've heard bargain shopping for females compared to the thrill of the hunt for males...lol)”

“good job, Divinity ;-)”

“anyone ever shop at Old Time Pottery. It had been yrs since I had been in that store.

I went Saturday to look at Christmas ornaments, trees, etc.

I bought a few ornaments that I put out on the window sill. I decided not to get a tree right now.

I did end up buying some stainless steel stock pots for $ 2.50 each. I bought the 8, 12,16 and 20 quart sizes. I figured what the heck I will buy them just in case I ever need anything that large.

I like Santa Claus figurines/statues so I bought a couple of them also. I need to see if I can get the ones I bought back from my ex.”

“Let's see--- got 16 things (bracelets, brooches, a handbag and jewelry case) for only $103 at the Liz Claiborne outlet store. Each of the bracelets were $18 originally, and marked down to 2 for $9.99... :-)

Also scored some new mikasa vases and salt & pepper shakers for only $2.88 each at the Mikasa Outlet... I couldn't believe it!”

“Wooo Hooo...while shopping @ Target a few weeks ago, I found a tent for $14....so I took it home & set it up....it is 9 x 7 with a 4 ft center height....it is a bit heavy, BUT not if 2 folks are sharing the weight....it has been thru 2 of our really bad storms while waiting to be waterproofed (one was really bad wind & rain & one really hard rain....) and it only had a small amount of water...& I can fix that with seam sealer!!!!...the ripstop polyethylene bathtub floor seems a little thin, but it seems to be a great tent!!!...wooo hoooooo!!!!...actually I bought 2 :)...and two chairs with foot rests for $7 each....wooo hoooo!!!!

“BUT...I am really interested in a hammock....I'm gettin old & the ground seems harder!!!!!!!”

“Cool! You should bring it up to Red River Gorge for the mother's day trip so we can all check it out!”

“ohhhhh....I am through with work the first week in May...I maybe should think about that trip!!!!!!”

“You absolutely should! We have a wonderful time! Very laid back.”

“Wooo Hooo...went to a store called Peebles in Mount Vernon ...looking for something warm, cause I'm freezin....
...found a Columbia fleece coat regularly $45 for $4.99
...& for the other grandmother a Chaps fleece coat regularly $75 for $4.99


wooooooo Hooooooooo!!!!!!”

“Good deal, for $4.99 you couldn't even buy enough fleece fabric to make it yourself.”

“There was a Peebles where I lived in the Tidewater area. Always good bargains.”

“Divinity, did you snatch up all the other fleece coats that were 4.99 for your friends here on TT?????

And by the way that's not a good deal it's a GREAT DEAL!!!”

“Amazing deal! Good for you and Grandma!”
