Confessions of a bargain shopper

If my husband is reading this.  Please stop, it's really only boring girls stuff and would hold no interest for you.

What most people don't know about me is that I am really, really cheap. I love clothes, shoes, makeup, skincare and everything else you can imagine but I can not pay full price. Sometimes I'll even balk at 50% off. It's not that I want to rip anyone off, I just need my limited funds to stretch as far as they can. I have decided to share my post christmas sales bargains. I am definitely looking at next season, summer is nearly over so I'm not investing in that any longer.

This was from Witchery in North Lakes. I think this is my best haul by far. Originally the jacket was $169, slouchy long line white top was $49 and the Raspberry Zebra scarf was $49. I walked out with these delicious wardrobe additions after handing over $25.85. Yes and I am serious. Witchery has a very generous membership card, you should really check it out. 
When shopping for a friend, I came across these amazing shoe boots at Nine West Chermside reduced from $189 to $49.  Insane! I think I'll wear these lot in Autumn and they'll look great with the Witchery outfit.

Myer at Northlakes.  I love pretty bras.  These are hard to see, but trust me, they are pretty and make my bust look hot. The Elle MacPherson one was $69 reduced to $9 and the Chloe and Lola was $49 reduced to $6.
Aaahhh, my slouch black boots from Wittners at Chermside.  I think the original price was $190.  I could look it up but I am too lazy.  These were only $59.  My six year old discovered them hiding at the back of a shelf.  She will be a great bargain shopper one day.
My tan wedges from Zu at Chermside.  Originally $120 but only $36 for the eagle eyed shopper. They are on sale on their website, the link is here.
Lastly, buckled Witchery pants.  These were originally $129 but I paid $29.


Total original prices = $873
Total spent = $213.85

It's important to love what you buy and not just buy them because it's a bargain.  I think I love my purchases but, only time will tell.

I think I am set up pretty well for the change of season and I have no reason to look for anymore bargains. But like I always say, who needs a reason.
