Yes... I do gaga over a shopping sale. It's just because I want to buy lots of stuff with the small amount of money I have.

No, I don't go crazy, but I only shop when there is a sale and look forward to them. However, a thrift store is where i go crazy :-) my favourite thrift store had a half price sale a while back and bought quite a bit of stuff at that point :-)

I don't buy in clearance sale unless there is no need to change my cloths. I know one shop claims to offer pay one take three offer frequently. But inflated the price tag. For example a shirt usally priced at Rs.175 is offered for sale at Rs.495 during offer period.

Yes, I sure am, this is the only time that my family can afford to buy new clothes, and I do not buy anything unless it is at least 60 percent off. When the stores can have 70% off sales, it really makes me think about the profits that they are making on regular priced clothes. I almost never buy any clothes that cost more than 10 dollars for myself or my husband, and no more than five dollars for my sons, yet we all look like we spend a lot of money on clothes, and people often comment on our clothes. They are always very shocked to find how much I paid for it. Of course when it comes to my husband s work clothes such as suits and dress shirts, it is impossible to find it at this price, but here I have a guideline of not buyin anything unless it is at least 50 % off, or By One Get One Free. My favorite store for clearance sale is JCPenneys, as tey really do have great sales up to 75% off, and they have the BOGO sales on a regular basis.
