The title says it all. I am an addict for sales. Especially in stores where I usually buy clothes from. It just occurred to me when I bought a pair of really adorable wedges just before graduation. The price was originally tagged at 1,300 pesos (Philippines' money) but it went down to 400 pesos! I couldn't believe my eyes as they were really really really nice! I bought the shoes right there and then! It was a blessing as I was having a hard time looking for cute silver wedges for my silver graduation dress. And I was able to save money! wub

How about you? What are your experiences during sales? lol

Me too! They are the best times to shop for lots of goods within your budget. And if you have the time and the patience, you can really go thru all the stuff and pick and choose the best ones. Only this is that you have to jostle with the crowd for a place at the aisle and the items are kept back on the racks in a very reckless manner, which spoils their arrangement.
Every year during festive times when there’s big sale going on, I go and buy clothes for the entire family.


myLot reputation of 99/100. aixshaonline (287)   ranked 4,664 out of 7,353 in shopping  4 weeks ago

I really agree with you! I try to arrive at the shop as early as I can so that I can choose the best stuff! There are some items that tend to be overlooked by some shoppers, and I take extra care to look for really good stuff lol

I like shopping,sometimes window shopping too.If the sale is going on its a bonus.
I have both bad and good experience of sale.Once I have a purchased a pretty dress which i was waiting for long.but after few weeks i found the same in sale and for just more than of half price.so now i really wait for sale as not to get dissapointed later on.


myLot reputation of 99/100. aixshaonline (287)   ranked 4,664 out of 7,353 in shopping  4 weeks ago

I can so relate with you! I once had a shirt that I really liked and bought it on the spot. But a few days later, the shop had a sale. I was really thrilled and went into the shop I got dismayed when I saw the shirt was also on sale. I should have waited a little longer before I actually bought the shirt, I could have saved money.

Yes, most people will tend to go shopping during sales.

When meeting a sales season, most people will grasp such an opportunity to buy as many as goods. You see, during sales, people have more options to choose and find the goods with optimization of the comprehensive cost-effective ratio. At the same time, they can get all what they want with little costs, which is helpful to save some money obviously.

It is really a wiser choice to go shopping during sales, especially for people who don't have much money.


myLot reputation of 99/100. aixshaonline (287)   ranked 4,664 out of 7,353 in shopping  4 weeks ago

I really don't mind the hustle and bustle during sales, because naturally, many people like going to sales too. I honestly think that sales are contests for the ones who could purchase the most "bargain"-worthy stuff.

I love shopping, even more so during the sales! You can grab some real bargains. I tend to wait for the sales and really stock up on new clothes. I don't like the disorganised way clothes and things are strewn everywhere at sales times, but the reduced price makes it worth rummaging round!


holyonfire (31)  4 weeks ago

Yeah, you can get some good bargains. That's what I enjoy most about sales. I like to get things for free or cheap, so sales particularly appeal to me. I also find it fun to try to find really good items for an inexpensive price.


myLot reputation of 99/100. aixshaonline (287)   ranked 4,664 out of 7,353 in shopping  4 weeks ago

thumbupThe only thing that annoys me when I'm going through the clothes is the dust. I am allergic to dust and I'd have fits of sneezing just by going through the clothes. But still, it's worth it if I can spot a lot of good clothes or other stuff!

Shopping when sales are going on is the best time. Who would want to pay full price for anything now! The price that your paying isn't the price you should be paying so when they are on sale I jump on it. I won't do it if its only 10-15% off but I def. consider it more when they are more on sale.


myLot reputation of 99/100. aixshaonline (287)   ranked 4,664 out of 7,353 in shopping  4 weeks ago

10-15% is good. But when I see big banners that shout "20-70%" off, I'd definitely go in the shop. Hahahaha. lol

But there are some stores that are really wise. They would usually mark up some of the stuff before putting them on sale. They'll say they have 30% off on all items, but actually, you'll only be getting a small discount instead of the whole 30%. thumbdown

I enjoy it when something I was already planning on getting is on sale, but otherwise I don't really pay attention to when sales happen - I try to avoid shopping while we are trying to pay off debt, or I will spend all of our money on things we don't actually need.


myLot reputation of 99/100. aixshaonline (287)   ranked 4,664 out of 7,353 in shopping  4 weeks ago

I try to avoid sales when I still have to pay off a debt. But sometimes, when the sales are really good, I try window shopping instead. Good for the pocket, but hard for the heart. Hahahahha lol

I love sales!! And especially sales on shoes, they are always so expensive and really if their full price is low, then the quality is low too. Same to say about bags. So I just wait for sales to get all the fancy shoes I like. And the same for pants, I never seem to find jeans cheap enough, they're so expensive! So I wait for sales to get them and save on money.
The only thing I don't ever seem to buy on sale are shirts and tops, I seem to have difficult preferences for those!


myLot reputation of 99/100. aixshaonline (287)   ranked 4,664 out of 7,353 in shopping  4 weeks ago

wubI looove shoes! But it's kind of hard to choose a pair in my size as my feet are small (I'm a size 6, but in Converse, 4 1/2 - 5 lol).

I love shopping when there is great sales. I however love to shop for computer parts and stuff. Clothes are good too but I have a lot of clothes already and don't need a million pars of jeans. I usually only buy clothes when they are on sale. There is nothing like a good sale to cheer you up though. Even window shopping is fun. Sometimes I will walk through the mall with my family just checking out all the stuff for sale. I like to see all the new hot trends and electronics that are coming out. I remember a time when my parents were getting there first color TV and that was amazing. Now they have 60" flat screens that are only about 1" thick and can be mounted on your wall.


myLot reputation of 99/100. aixshaonline (287)   ranked 4,664 out of 7,353 in shopping  4 weeks ago

Now that you mentioned it, I need a new pair of jeans! Hahahaha lol

I love window shopping, too! But sometimes, I get a sinking heart knowing it's a sale, but I have no money. Hahahha w00t

You're like my dad and my brother! They really like going to shops where there are electronic items on sale. They'd usually compare stuff for hours before choosing the best stuff.

I love to shop during sale! A lot of the time sales provide the best bargains. The shopping atmosphere can appear to be more friendly too. Christmas shopping can be a different story though. The pressure is often for purchasing gifts and sometimes it can try our patience. other than that shopping is great fun!


myLot reputation of 99/100. aixshaonline (287)   ranked 4,664 out of 7,353 in shopping  4 weeks ago

Christmas shopping is definitely one of the most aggravating shopping sprees ever. lol That's why as much as possible, I try to buy gifts as early as I can! Hahaha...

I already found 3 gifts for my parents and my sister. I only have to buy 3 more: for my other sister, my brother, and myself! lol
