Lucky

Wow... that's wonderful, my dear friend. The last thing I remember was a pretty jacket/cardigan I bought for my daughter-in-law for christmas. It was a wrap one, (no buttons), with a belt tie. It was a kind of mule colour, with gold flecks of thread in it, and it frilled down the front and around the bottom. The cost, £29.99. I really liked this cardigan and it was just her colour, so, I took it to the pay desk. When I arrived at the pay desk, the woman asked me if I wanted to apply for a Bonus Club card. I made sure that this was not a credit card, or anything, and filled in the form. She handed me my card, and a leaflet explaining about the bonuses. Then, she took the cardigan off the hanger, folded it and put it into a bag... she took the ticket to the till and rung up the price, promptly returning to the counter, to ask for £13.00!!! I didn't ask any questions... just paid up and left hurriedly. Brightest Blessings.

I love my bargains too pal , I get quite miffed if I have to pay full price for anything , When I show my family something and say how much it coast they always reply " and how much did you pay for it" lol they know me so well xx

Everyone deserves something occasionally, just think of it as a early Easter gift for yourself. I know what you mean about money being tight. We are squeezing our money so tight tight it is squealing. If it hadn't been for the money I made online $65 We wouldn't have internet or phone or cable. I am hoping his work will be starting back up soon enough he worked for a neighbor today and made a few dollars to pay water bill. But as I said you have to do things to make yourself feel special and your right it might be another 16 years before you go that kind of deal again. Hmm, last bargin I bought..Dawn dishsoap this month was only .69 cents. And another time the meat man at the store made a mistake and I got a two pound pack of beef stew meat for only .10 cents. I didn't know if they would actually let me have it at that price or not so I was waiting for her to say something about it and refuse to let me buy it but all she said was, wow, you got a great deal because of the butchers mistake.

I am so happy that you bought that perfume, you deserve it. Thats a nice bargain to get. Have you looked on Ebay for it, sometime you can get a good bargain there. I love getting bargains, I do my best not to pay full price for anything. I will even bargain at the Walmart on stuff. I wanted this particular vacuum, they only had the display model left and it didn't have attachments. I called the manager and bargained with him and got $10 knocked off the price. I had the attachments that fit that vacuum at home, since the one I was replacing was the same brand. You can bargain almost anywhere, all you have to do is ask. Good going with your bargain, now you will be smelling pretty.

Yes mine was last Week with a pair of Shoes I needed a new Pair Desperately as my ones are well and truly worn out lol I could not really afford them as I spent quite a bit on my Daughter for her 21st Birthday The Price tag said £12 when I got to the Checkout they where £6 , so half Price which made me happy

Well I think you deserved to treat yourself sweety and I am glad that you did! My last bargain was a beautiful little fake fur jacket in dusky pink that I bought for Niamh a few weeks ago! We were in the supermarket , in the clothes section when she started oohing over this jacket I picked it up for a look and saw that it was reduced to £8 fantastic, as I tried to get one in her size I saw others marked down to £4 and picked out one of those! When we went to the checkout (self scan ) I never noticed but when I checked my receipt later it had went through at £2, not bad for a jacket that started at £20. xxx

Wow did ya every get lucky I have never got a bargen like that wtg

yup when we go to BUrlingtons Coat Factory . It has all kinds of clothes and things in it not just coats and I got my grand daughter 5 real nice outfits for $56 they lasted her a couple of years now that is a bargain . and they have them all the time ya just go to go take time to look at every thing. grats on your perfume1

That is a GREAT deal!!! I'm glad you treated yourself because you are so right - when will you come across a deal like that?? My biggest savings is on clothes usually LOL.

Well you definitely can't turn down a bargain like that. I'm glad you splurged on yourself and bought it. I'm sure if you hadn't you wish you would have and by the time you got back there it wouldn't be that cheap. Some times we need to do things like that for ourselves. I have found a few bargains like that over the years but can't think of one off hand. Horrible I know. I guess it's old age creeping in. I'll probably remember twenty minutes after I hit post.

Way to go MsTickle!! I like your style because I have the same conversation with myself when I see something on special and I can't really afford it! Just before Christmas I saw Obsession perfume (my fav) on special for less than half price. I had my conversation with myself, and decided not to buy it, but when I got home I couldn't stop thinking about it and was kicking myself for not getting it - so bad, that I went to that shop the day after and purchased the perfume! Could have saved myself another trip into town by just getting it the day before, lol! I'm happy!

Yes! I feel you. I got a pair of shoes off of ebay that were originally marked at 59.99. I bought them for 16.99 and paid 6.00 in shipping. I thought that was a huge steal. They were really cute and not sold around here either so that made it all the better!

wow, great deal, mstickle! that extra 20% off was the cincture, wasn't it? talked self right into a fantastic bargain! hmmm I bargain shop all the time, not quiet sure what the best and latest bargain was though - I think I have stayed up too late again, my brain is working in 1st gear.

That is fantastic! The other week, I bought some more Sims2 expansion games. I knew that one was 1/2 price but not that both were half price! I ended up paying less for both of them than I would have for the most expensive one! And I have to say, I was going to get a couple more, but remembered why I was out shopping and decided against it.

I am wondering what kind of perfume it was, I have not been buying anything because I do not have any money I live mostly on food banks, but at christmas my adult son bought a cell phone, got the phone free with the purchase of 50.00 dollars of minutes.

It was about a month ago. There is a mega store. it was giving discount like buy the first cloth and get the second for INR 99. its amazing. I bought two dress materials for INR 700, which is good.

Brava! I am so glad you got your perfume.The last bargain I found wasn't as large. Saturday, I needed to get my leave in conditioner and it was on sale. instead of paying 6.00 it was 4.47.

wow! that's a big big discount mstickle! it wasn't a mistake that you decided to buy it. something like that happens once in a while. and that's really a big discount to let go! the last bargain i bought was a pack of pears. one pack contains six pieces of pears. i love pears as much as i love apple but at that time in the grocery the apple seemed very small to me and the pears were larger. its because it was on buy one take one promo! so i got another pack for free when i bought a pack. it was a good treat because pears aren't in season and they just get expensive during Christmas.

I haven't bought myself anything in a long long time because like you, money is really tight. But yes I agree, you've got to have a treat every now and then or one tends to get a bit resentful. I applaud you for getting that perfume! That's a long time ago since you've gotten it so it's about time you got it again!!

I only shop for clothes in the clearance rack unless I desperately need something that I have to pay full price for. The last time I just popped into WalMart to pick up some bread and some diapers they had a rack of clothes for boys up by the checkout. Everything on the rack was $1.00. I got my sons each two pairs of khakis and 2 pairs of jeans and 2 sweaters they can wear next year. I spent $12 and got them a 1/3 of what they get for school each year new.
