Pinchin' Pennies


I haven't done a blog lately in regards to my frugal shopping and bargain hunting. Keep in mind, I don't buy anything unless I am getting these sorts of prices but the last few days have been exceptionally good. Good enough to dedicate a blog post to, I suppose.

To begin, a few nights ago I found this deal at Meijer.

These sandals were $15 each, buy one get one free! Total for both pairs: $15! 


Than yesterday I heard it was $1 flip-flop day at Old Navy. I drove up to my closest Old Navy only to find over an hour wait just to get in the store! As I was out shopping in the evening I stumbled across another Old Navy.. and this one was full of deals!! 

These pants were originally $34.50. I paid just $9.97


 
This shirt.. $16.94. I paid $4.49.


 
Another pair of fun patterned pants! $34.50. I paid $10.49


 
Another steal! Originally $17.94.


And the biggest Old Navy bargain.. Originally $29.50... I paid $1.47.

As for the flip-flops (ya know, the reason I went to Old Navy!) by the time I got there only 5s and 6s were left, and they were all black. I was walking away somewhat disappointed that my size 10 feet weren't getting any new flip flops when a nice sales man said "Why didn't you grab any sandals, miss?? You know you can return them anytime within 90 days for any size, any color and still get the $1 price." JACKPOT! I grabbed 3 :)


At the mall, I stopped by Charming Charlies. I don't usually get much there except for some clearance jewelry but I found a great sale.

I found this jewelry organizer on sale for $11 from $25 originally AND it was buy one clearance item get one free so I grabbed this peach scarf (below) for free!


Then today I went to Target and found this dress at 70% off!

Thanks, Target!

Also, while I was at Target, they were handing out bags with free samples and TONS of coupons. I got free gum, shampoo, snacks and a ton of other stuff. It was a successful trip!

I also stopped and got my free Biggby drink of choice (for my birthday!) on my way home. 


Lets do the math...
Meijer                          Originally $30.00                Got it for just $15
Old Navy                    Originally $141.33                                      $33.50
Charming Charlies      Originally $40.00                                        $11.00
Target                         Originally $24.99                                         $12.00
Biggby                       Originally $5.50                                           $0.00
   
Totals:                                        $241.82                            I paid:  $71.50 

A grand savings of $170.32!

Also, this was with NO coupons! Only clearance rack savings and a free birthday certificate at Biggby!


Spend your money on something else, get things on sale!
