You've got to love a Freebie

As you know, I love freebies attached to the magazines. This morning I had to make a trip to Kippa-Ring for some necessary supplies and as I rushed through Coles I glimpsed across at the racks of magazines looking for the telltale plastic wrapping or protruding cardboard notifying me of the freebies attached. Excitedly dreaming of lip gloss, tweezers or a make up brush and what did I see ....... nothing .... not even magazines. It was past 11am, how can they be so late in stocking the magazine shelves? Seriously, it's magazine Monday, they should stock magazines before milk or bread. Who is running this circus?

I took a deep breath and walked to the news agency next door. This is usually not the best plan because the freebies are usually only in Woolworth or Coles. As I am walking towards the magazines, I notice one pile significantly high than the others...a thick magazine....wrapped in plastic...enclosing something. Gold I tell you, I struck gold, Cleo this month has a free maxi Seduce dress worth $129 attached. There are two choices, a black one or a pink one with orange trim.

 I am a happy girl, sitting here in my pink Seduce maxi, with my black Seduce maxi wrapped around my shoulders reading how Katy Perry wants to get back with Russell Brand.  I'm pulling for you crazy kids.

7 ways in 7 days - Free Nookie dress

Yesterday when shopping for fruit at Bluewater Redcliffe I noticed the Girlfriend magazine had a free Nookie dress worth $69 attached.  I never purchase this magazine and it completey goes against my freebie rules written in an earlier post (the rules).  I decided to break my rules just for you. The last post with the free Seafolly dress 7 ways was popular I thought I would challenge myself to try again.  To make it fun for me, I can only use shoes and accessories in my closet and give myself about 10 mintues to throw it all together.  As you know, I am not a stylist or even stylish, just a girl (pretend with me that 38 is still a girl) on the peninsula that loves a free dress.

This Nookie dress comes in two colours, black and orange.  Black is the safe choice but the orange was the only choice for me.  It only comes in one size, thanks girlfriend.  This can not be a one size fits all, it may be one size fits one thigh.

Well that was fun, looking back over the photos I noticed two things
1. Where are all the fun colours I like; and
2. All the shoes where bought at Shoes on Scarborough on the peninsula.
