On Tuesday my good friend Tess and I were talking, and she asked if I was going to go to the Mervyn’s huge clearance sale, where if you buy ONE clearance item, you get TWO free. Oh, no! I couldn’t go because I had signed up to work at the book fair at the elementary school for the whole time that John would be at preschool, and then it was parent teacher conference, and then I had to take the girls to dance, and then I had rehearsal. So, I wouldn’t be able to get to Mervyn’s on Wednesday, and it was only a one day sale. <\/p>\n
So, I told her to call me from Mervyn’s, and just buy some things for me, if she didn’t mind.<\/p>\n
And shop she did! She called me from the store to ask me a few questions, and I told her to err on the side of “just buy it” and if I didn’t like it I could always return it. <\/p>\n
We ended up with:
\n2 Sweaters for the girls
\n1 Dress for Natalie or Megan
\n1 Jacket for John
\n5 long sleeved shirts for John
\n3 shirts for Cole
\nand a partridge in a pear tree! Ok, no pear tree, but we got all that for……
\n$27.77
\nWow! I spent almost that much on just two dresses for the girls earlier this week!<\/p>\n
So, Tess did my bargain shopping FOR me! So, it’s just like the bargain shopping, only without the shopping part!
\nThanks, Tess!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
