God bless the after-Christmas sales! We went to the new snooty mall today and walked out with two sacks full o' bargains. First stop was The Body Shop, where I got two bottles of Snow bubble bath and a cranberry soap for less than one bottle of the bubble bath was just two days ago. Then we hit Crane & Co. and I got a box of Christmas cards, a box of Christmas thank you notes, and two boxes of note cards for less than the Christmas cards were originally. It's the only way I can afford to shop there. Shhhhh...don't tell anyone... Then we locked down the checkbook again and ducked out before anything else could suck away the balance! But it sure was fun playing for a few...

You almost get the impression they're checking your tax returns on the way in, huh? ;-)

I went shopping today too, didn't spend a great deal of money though. Certainly don't have anything like a snooty 200 store mega place though. I noticed it had a Starbucks ;) I did manage to get 4 rather decent quality T's for $30 (about $16US) so that made me happy. Now I have to stop going out and spending money I don't have!

Oooh, did the Body Shop have lots of goodies on sale? I noticed a big crowd in mine today as I passed it, returning from making returns at the Discovery Store. I need more Vanilla perfume from there ... I love that stuff!

Yep -- The Body Shop had tons of stuff at 50% off (all of the holiday scents and holiday gift boxes) -- and lots more at 25% off (home fragrances, etc.). My two favorite scents from them are Cranberry and Snow, so I buy one bottle of bubble bath when they first come out each year, and make myself wait for the post-Christmas clearance for the rest. :-) Then I'm stocked up for the next 10 months...
