when you go shopping do you shop from the sales? or you buy from the first rank?
if you like a piece of clothing .. do you buy it right away or you wait til it goes on sales and clearance to buy it??
I'm asking you this question because i went shopping the other day with my friend and me and her we bought clouts..
i bought two shirts for $60 each one was $30
BUT my friend she went to the sale rank and she got this beautiful shirt it was black formal shirt and it was $6 only ..!!i thought to my self how stupid i was to waste my money like that and what a smart shopper my friend is ..
and from now on .. I'm thinking that i want to buy only from the clearance .. and if i didn't find what I'm looking for , then i'll go to see in the front or the new collection .. and maybe if i like dress or sweater i should wait for it to go on sale .. and come back later for it ..
what do you think of my plan
so as for my subject .. what is your shopping happit ? are you like my friend or you are like me?

Hello! I can't blame you if you feel that way because I felt the same when I bought clothes with its original price but after a month it goes down to half and a quarter of the original price. It quiet upsetting though I am enjoying and i never regret buying it. If the item is worth it of the price then why wait for a long time for it to be sale? I am impatient, so if I like it and if its in original price, I do not have time to wait for it to be on sale..hehe. I love buying items on sale though.

i know i feel the same way .. but there s another reason .. i don't get out much .. so if i don't buy it know the second time you see me in the mall maybe month later .. that's why i buy what i need and go.. once i bought a nice boot from spring and i wanted to ware it on the eid (its a holiday for Muslims ) but a weed later they but it on sale .. that made me sad cause i had it for only one week and its already on sale ..

I am a clearance rack shopper. I will look for those first before I hit the new arrivals. I also buy off season, like now the winter stuff is going on sale, so I will be shopping for my children's winter clothes for next year in a few weeks. Why pay full price when you don't have to? I save a ton of money doing that. There are times I will just go to the mall and hit the big stores and look for deals, I've found jeans for my husband for 2 and 3 dollars marked down from 20 and 30 dollars because it was end of the season, and they had to get rid of them. There are plenty of times, I have bought my kid's clothes for 1 to 5 dollars marked down from 15, 20 dollars per item.
If it's a must need item, I will hit the close out stores, or bargin stores such as TJMaxx, Ross and Marshels, because their prices are still low enough for me to justify it as a deal. I had to have a cocktail dress for a party, I seen one I loved online for 150.00, but checked Ross and got one almost the same for 29... couldn't pass that up.
Good luck finding deals and happy shopping!!!
thank you forthe tip

I love shopping but I dont really spend that much this year cuz of financial problem. I need to save a lot of money for other things, so not much on spending. However, if i go shop for clothing I would go to see the clearance first and then I will see the new Items also. If the new items are really cute and I can't help it then I will get one if I could effort. Most of the time, I love shop for clothes with they are on sale... so I dont end up with too much spending.

I am the same like your friend. I love getting things on sale and clearance. I will still buy things new, but only after I've checked out the clearance rack.
