After some positive comments about THIS look (and feeling a little more confidence in myself), I checked out the hosiery department while I was grocery shopping earlier this week. Imagine my delight when I found a sale--Buy 1/Get 1 Free!
Not only that, but these 3-Way lightbulbs were drastically reduced! We seem to run out of them quite a bit. One or the other setting wears out before the others...(do YOU have that problem?)
For some reason, I am having difficulty letting go of the old-time lightbulbs, so finding 6 of these 3-Ways provides me with a few years of security.
I'm not a shop-o-holic. But when I go to get groceries, I make a round of the entire store with an eye to "specials". I have my "route" and it doesn't take me long. I like to stock up when I see a GOOD sale, and I am disciplined enough not to buy something just because it's a good deal--usually.
Examples of what I wait for GOOD sales to stock up on are: deodorant, shampoo, shaving cream, men's razor blades, toilet paper, paper towels (occasionally), trash bags, coffee, rice, sugar, flour, peanut butter, and Shredded Wheat cereal.
I didn't even realize Leggs made leggings. Can you tell I don't shop much? Good for you for spotting a sale.

Darla, Yep! And in a couple of styles & lengths :) I DO still wear "nylons" so that department is one that I frequent while I'm cruisin' for sales.
ReplyDeleteOh my gosh, I've not worn stockings in years. For one thing it is way too hot and humid to wear them, and we don't go that many places that I feel the need to wear them.
ReplyDeleteYou sure do know how to shop Rebecca. I also look for the sales at the grocery store and stock up if it's something we use regularly.
Have a great weekend ~ FlowerLady
Don't forget your coupons! But I'm a fine one to talk, I'll spend the time to cut them out but I'll forget to take them with me :(
ReplyDeleteBonnie, I'm quite half-hearted about coupons. My shopping list is SO basic that I seldom find coupons to match it! (Occasionally cereal or coffee...but otherwise not so much.)
ReplyDeleteHi there-well done on your bargains and you look lovely in that hot pink top in your last post too! x
ReplyDeleteI do that in my favourite drug store - I've found amazing sheets, a couple of stools, some storage baskets...all super cheap, heavily marked down.
ReplyDeleteEnjoy your thrifty finds! (especially the old fashioned light bulbs .. you should see my stash .. I detest the new squiggly ones .. but maybe I should check my three-way supply) Leggings .. now that's cool.
ReplyDeleteThose Wasit Smoothers are a brilliant buy, I've got a couple of friends who'd love those, wonder if they sell them in the UK? xxx
ReplyDeleteGood shopping! I think Meijer has regular light bulbs on sale this week. Would love it if some of the ladies could give style tips on wearing leggings. You looked great in the outfit you had on a few days ago.
ReplyDeleteAnything that helps with muffin top is a wonderful thing lol!!...those look like nice leggings I will have to look for those ~You are certainly talented when it comes to shopping and getting good deals ~Love Heather
