While cleaning out a closet, I found an old Bon Marche bag. Sniff! Dang Macy’s took over and ruined what used to be my favorite store!!! I no longer go into Macy’s stores unless I have a gift card to spend, but I occasionally shop it online.
I loved the Bon Marche too along with many other regional chains: Marshall Fields, Meier and Frank, Robinsons, May to name a few.
While shopping at Sam’s Club I spotted a cart full of Puma track suits for babies for $6.49. Bought it on a whim and was happy that my son was excited by it. He doesn’t ordinarily get excited by baby clothes but this one was really cute.
I’m not afraid the Sam’s Choice ice cream I bought for $1/qt. is bad Blue Bell stuff…highly doubt Walmart is knowingly going to sell deadly recalled products. I’m more concerned about chances of getting mugged in the store’s parking lot at night. 'sides the ice cream I bought has expiration dates of April 2016 printed on bottom of containers so in the worst case scenario I have about 11 months left to live.
Speaking of Penzey spices, I like their Apple Pie Seasoning blend. I use it in apple pie and homemade applesauce. I started making my own vanilla extract just a couple of years ago and will never go back to buying it again. All it takes is a colored vanilla jar, a vanilla bean and vodka. I made them two Christmas’s ago as gifts for my co-workers and friends and all appreciated it. I have a jar in the basement for refilling my smaller bottle when I get low.

A pair of Munro slides for $40 at the local TJMaxx (this is definitely a good buy because they are still $80 at 6pm!):

Man, they are so comfy!
BB, that’s a great deal!
That is a nice deal. I was so happy last year to get a Tiganello soft leather bag, perfect size, strap, compartments and at least 40-50 off what I could find online. Better though was in the spring when the black color was on clearance at 40.00, only one and I grabbed it : )
Still waiting for the full spring stocking at my local TJ/Marshall’s but I hope to pick up some nice tops and workout wear now that I lost weight (40!) from last year. ; )
I hope my local TJ’s has those Munros–they are THE most comfortable shoes.
Great shoe buy!
Great weight loss Debruns!!!
Anyone know of any good deals on Longchamp bags? I really want the travel tote, but am a little hesitant to spend $120.
On a side note: I believe an ebag sale is coming up soon (?) Last year, there was a huge one around June. Does anyone know about this?
Thanks 
BunsenBurner, Those sandals look really nice! Good job! I would love to replace an old pair of Clarks with them.
Kohl’s is having a Family and Friends extra 20% off using any credit card (not just Kohls card). It was a happy surprise when I checked out today. Runs May 7-10.
Thanks! That style if sandals would be great for feet with bunions, BTW, because the leather straps leave that area open. A good alternative to flipflops! I’m going back tomorrow to look if they have a larger size - will send it to my sister who suffers from foot issues.
Munros are on sale at zulily.com. I didn’t check the prices because I don’t need any right now, but remembered seeing them mentioned here. I’ve ordered from Zulily and have been happy with their service.
I ordered these shoes from 6pm. http://www.6pm.com/naot-footwear-laura-black-patent-leather
Only small sizes left, I’ve been on a quest for a pair of comfortable sandals with a back that aren’t too old lady-ish. I hope these fit the bill.
My TJ Maxx had title nine and athleta clothes, bought a couple of items.
Very nice, deb! Hope they fit well.
HerRoom F&F sale started today - 20% off.
Bought bread at Dollar Tree…$1/loaf. Same whole wheat, multi-grain, bagels, sandwich rounds (Nature’s Own/Cobblestone) selling in grocery store next door for about $3.50/loaf. Not ‘day old’… exact same stuff bread route guy puts fresh in regular groceries. Dollar Tree clerk said the bread route guy stocks his bread display in the store 3 mornings week.
Anthropologie is having 20% off this weekend for Mothers Day. Online and in stores.
My daughter and I made an impromptu visit to our outlet plaza, no buys (for us) at J Crew, Ann Taylor. but Banana Republic was a “score”.
Everything we bought was 50-60% or more off price. For 136.00, we left with a black 3/4 sleeve length dress (9.99 on clearance) another spring shirt dress, a beautiful spring pleated skirt, a cotton sweater, a tee shirt dress, sweatshirt and a pair of capris.
When we left a cupcake truck was there and I indulged in a black bottom cupcake : ) Still waiting for my annual TJ Maxx bargains, but this was a good day.
