It has been more than 2 years since I last wore very high heels.  I used to go to the office wearing high heels everyday and walk around the office for 10-15 hours.  Used to be good at it too haha.  Well, I was at Ross in Alcoa the other day when I saw these Nine West 5-inch pumps with fake snake-skin heels and its on clearance for only $3.49!  How can I saw no to that?  And the awesome thing is the last pair is my size 8 1/2.  Maybe its a sign that I have to start wearing high heels  again haha.  Anyway I am very happy with the purchase and plan on using it next month when I attend a cousin's wedding.   Now, I need to find a dress to match. ;)

woot woot!  Last week I was scouring through the Last Chance Clearance racks of TJMaxx (they usually have it at the end of every holiday, or beginning of the year).  I love TJ Maxx and I usually go there every week and I always go out with something small .  I decided to blog about all the great deals I get from TJ Maxx and other outlet stores such as Ross, Marshalls, goodwill or habitat store, craigslist and other stores I usually go to.  I never buy anything at full price (well except for produce, meat, you know what I mean) and every week I find something totally awesome and something that does not break the bank!

For this week, guess what I found! I scored a $120 Cynthia Rowley bag from TJ Maxx  and only paid $20! I love it.  Then going through more racks, found a small silver leather Cynthia Rowley wallet for only $7!  It was originally priced at $58.  Both items are on clearance. I am an ecstatic woman! haha  Love the colors too!

Today I didn't really plan on looking for something but you know me, I window shop ALOT and if I see a good deal on something that I know we would use/need, then I'd get it. This afternoon, on the way back from my brother-in-law's from Loudon, we stopped by this huge yard sale which funnily, they set up at a car lot with storage buildings and it looks like they have a lot of crap in there.  We decided to stop because I still want to get more frames to re-purpose for my gallery wall.  Well I went in there and did not get a single frame ( i should have) but got a lot of good finds. I have not really been going to yard sales this year because I've got Apollo and I think this is like the 2nd time that I actually stopped to check out one in a long time.
