Everyone loves a bargain, who wouldn’t right?!
Why would you consciously spend more on a product when you know that you could get it for a far cheaper, more economical price? And what’s even better than getting a bargain? It’s when you fortuitously stumble upon this bargain without premeditation! And what’s even better than this luck? The intoxicating feeling of euphoria that surges through your entire being as you leave the sale, knowing that it’s one of those ‘good’ days! This happened to me last week. As you know, I work in Richmond, an area which is the epitome of bargain shopping, renowned for its sales and bargain-basement prices. On Friday, a few weeks ago, while I was casually strolling down the road to grab myself some lunch, I unwittingly came across an A4 poster that was plastered onto a light post. It was pure serendipity that the poster caught my eye and drew me to it. The big heading wrote ‘Lolita Warehouse Sale’, followed by dates of the sale, it was fortunate that the sale had only started today.
On the poster was also the picture of an arrow directing people into a certain direction. I felt intrigued, never one to shy away from a sale, I preceded to follow the arrow. As I walked, I saw other posters stating ‘sale this way’ and more arrows. I followed these arrowed poster into an ally and around the corner. I was starting to feel rather cautious as I wasn’t sure just exactly how ‘safe’ this sale really was! But eventually, after turning the corner I saw a massive garage door that was fully open, and inside stood rows upon rows of hung clothing particles. At first glance I couldn’t quite make out the scene as I was quite stunned to observe that so many bodies could cramped together into such a limited space. Nevertheless, it only took me a split second to digest the sights before I hurled myself wholeheartedly into the masses which was the bargain hunting bonanza!! An hour later, I walked back to work with a bag full of goodies, and a massive smile on my dial. I managed to get 12 items for $140!
As they say, a picture is worth a thousand words, so I’ll let my photos do the talking:
Dress $15. I quite like the shoulder details.And the last item I bought was this dress, also $15
What do you think? Jealous of my loot?
I was exhilarated when walking back to work after the sale! My summer wardrobe has already started. Sorry Su but I didnt model these outfits as suggested. I'm hating my body at the moment so dont really want to take phots of myself.
xox♥ ♥
Love all the bargains. Nothing beat the feeling of satisfaction after shopping and knowing that you didn't spent much.
