Great Purchases this Week

December 6, 2012

I think I made some great purchases and got some fabulous deals this week!  I love to do most of my shopping at discount stores like Nordstrom Rack and TJ Maxx, etc.  I don’t really see the point in paying full price for most items that can be found at these stores for lower prices.  Here are a few things I picked up this week:

Sequined sparkly candles that I bought at Michael’s for 50% off
Ballet flats from Sperry in Leopard Pony at Nordstrom Rack
I paid $59.97 instead of $99
Vince Camuto ballet flats in Deco Gold at Nordstrom Rack
I paid $59.97 instead of $98
I also had a $20 reward certificate!
The Brand New Naked Basics palette from Urban Decay.
This had to be ordered online as it’s not available in stores yet.
(full price)
These cookies are amazing!  I purchased them at Sprout’s Market.
I picked them up in several flavors in the individual serving size bags so that I don’t go too crazy.
Have you gotten any great deals recently?
I plan to get most of my holiday shopping complete before the stores get too crazy.

Have a great week!
