Since I still have a hefty gift card for Target, I looked a couple of times at purses (to replace mine that was falling apart since about 9 months ago). I thought the other day, I'll just have to check out Kohls.
No sooner than I thought that, a $10 gift card arrived in the mail from Kohls. No catch, just have to use it in the next 10 days or something. Dh and I marveled at what genius marketing that is. Usually those things have a $50 purchase minimum and you think "whatever." On the other hand, can anyone walk into Kohls and spend just $10? LOL. Maybe some, but few.
It help offsets their slightly higher prices if nothing else. Hopefully I can find something I like.
I also should run by Marshalls. I keep forgetting to check their first for things. Marshalls, Ross, whatever.
I peeked a little on ebay but I can't buy a purse without checking it out in person - too picky.
Anyway, the timing is good, as of 9/1 I will have a $40 balance in my allowance account. It's been negative since June so it works out. I won't spend $40 on a purse but I might buy a couple of tops while I am there.
Oh, which reminds me, still haven't gotten my Cookie Lee catalog(s) - BAH - but they are getting more advanced every year and posted it online for us consultants. Oh dear lord - Cookie Lee - temptation is thy name.
It will take a good deal of self control not to spend any of my profits. But I do have the idea to buy a few items for Christmas. Since dh's family is so insistent on buying me tons of gifts. They get all annoyed when it is not varied (various items) but whatever. Will buy some for dh to give me for Christmas, birthday and some for his family too. I can have my cake and eat it too - hehe. If they all buy me one jewelry set - it is a nice start. & it will be cheap for them as will only cost them wholesale price. I am not sure on dh, but we'll see. I now have to think good and hard about 1-3 sets I want the MOST!!!!
The good is it is another great catalog that will sell with little effort. I'll be making money this month.
