It's hard to beat a good sale. I mean, everyone loves a deal! Some more than others, but I haven't met anyone who will turn down paying less for something they need or want. I have some customers who won't even look at the sale rack, and others who only look at the sale rack - so there are the extremes on both ends of the spectrum, but over all, no one is going to turn down a deal. Personally, I get extra excited when I can get a deal on something I'm buying anyways, even if its just 25 cents at the grocery store on an avocado, it feels super good!

Lately, I've been totally hooked on the "just for you" app thru our grocery store Albertsons. It does specific deals for you, based on the things you buy and how you shop. And then as you spend more and more money, you can collect rewards and get products for free. Its like collecting tokens at the arcade! They have different categories, and some things cost more than others, but I love saving up my points, and then picking out free things. A couple of weeks ago I cashed in all of my rewards to get some cheese and ice cream (you know, the must haves) FOR FREE! I also love looking at my receipt when it breaks down how much you saved and what percent that was and all of that. Its a rush! My biggest savings so far was 65% at the beginning of the summer when we only needed a few things, but got our first watermelon of the season, and with my specialized savings, I ended up saving over $15 on this watermelon. That really increased my stats! 

Side note, I don't know why the watermelons were so crazy expensive. Maybe it was the first of the season and so there weren't a ton, and they were charging an arm and a leg for them?? I'm not sure. It was seedless, but not even organic. Just your plain old watermelon. I saved $15, but I won't tell you how much I actually did pay. All I will say is that it was incredible, and worth every penny, but I am not planning on spending that much on a watermelon ever again.

Okay, so the ONESIE SALE today - there are some must haves for sure! Some good things got marked down that are totally wearable for now and well into the fall weeks ahead. I love getting things when they first come in (I am currently wearing my Citizens of Humanity Kayla Shirt for the 3rd time this week), but also love a good sale, and even more when its on sale! ;) LV and I always laugh about how some of our most treasured pieces or most complimented items over the years, have been sale finds. Isn't that funny how that works out? I'll wait months and months for something to come in (currently writing orders for Velvet spring right now, and its CUTE! very excited!), and that's fun, and super special, but there is also something really amazing about getting a good deal and loving something even more than you imagined. 

And...piggybacking on what LV said yesterday about getting in the gift giving mindset, I love finding things on sale, and stockpiling gifts for people as I see them. That way, I'm not left in a bind, and am not just buying something to have something to give, even if its not perfect. PJ sets are always my go to, but I also have my sights set on a few other pieces. Gotta keep people on their toes! :)

Cheers to the Onesie sale - Lets shop!
