SALE = Shopping

I, like countless other people like it when there is a SALE in the stores. For a couple of days now, Kohls has a 'Buy One, Get One Free' promotion on regular priced items. They also have a sale for other discounted items, from 40% to 90% off. Well, today was the last day of the promotion so after dropping off Amber in school, Tyler and I went straight to Kohls. They open at 8:00AM so we only had to wait 5 minutes in the car. Almost everything in the store is on sale, it's like Christmas all over again. :)



I spent about 2 hours in the store, trying to find a good deal here and there. I bought some clothes on the Buy 1 Get 1 Free promo: for example, there was a nice white knitted top for $44.00 and I got another blouse with the same price for free. Well, it's not exactly free, it's more like I paid 50% off each blouse. Hey, as long as I don't pay the full price it's considered a good deal, right? I also got a black suede skirt for $4.00 and a party dress with a matching sweater for $8.00 - the best deal. At the end of the shopping trip, I paid around $225.00 and that's a great deal considering I made out with 2 pairs of slacks, 5 blouses, 2 leather belts, 2 shirts and 1 knit sweater for Amber and a small toy for Tyler. I miss shopping days like this, I used to shop frequently when I was single and my favorite stores were Nordstroms and Macys in San Francisco. All that changed when I had my first child, now I always shop for my kids first. It's part of being a mom, I guess. :)
