I did a little shopping at Target. I texted Dave asking if I should buy the red maternity dress for $4.24. At first I was just trying it on for the price but then thought about his Christmas party and how it'd be nice to wear something besides the only other maternity dress I own. Dave said I looked ginormous.
I bought 2 dresses and a shirt on December 3. Then I went to a different Target and bought boots in a bigger size on December 7. The red dress was 4.24. It was on clearance. The other dress was 6.04. I couldn't try it on since it is not maternity but I really liked it so figured I'd hope for the best. It might be too small. It's hard to remember what size I used to be. I bought a tank top that is a nursing tank because it was on clearance for 5.08. The picture I took of it was blurry but it's not really anything to write home about. I think the clearance deals were quite nice.
Everything I bought on 12/3 was on clearance. The boots were full price. They are better than my current boots but still aren't 100% what I wanted. They were $39.99 and I got a size 10. In the photos above I was trying on a size 9 and they were slightly tight. Too bad the 10 is slightly bigger in the calves and ankles. Yay I finally have some black boots that won't kill the ball of my foot. I was looking at some booties but the largest size was 8 or 9 in all of them and then when I went to the other Target I was with Dave and he was impatient so I didn't mess around looking.
The boots probably won't last that long but $40 isn't that bad of a price. But the rest of my deals are so awesome, I'm excited. I hope the non-maternity dress fits.
Have you gotten any good deals lately? Where were they from?
I think you're going to get lots of comments when you wear that red dress. It just really highlights your belly. Which isn't a bad thing! I actually like it and think it's cute on you. I just realized I think those exact boots were 18.99 on black friday. I wanted to buy them but they were only in black and I needed brown. I already own a decent pair of black boots. Still you did well with the other clearance stuff. I love it when I can find a great item for real cheap at Target.
ReplyDeleteUgh I hate not getting deals. I did have to go to 2 stores to even get my size. I'm also disappointed about the booties because there were 2 really cute pairs I would have at least liked to try on. Also boots were buy one get one 50% off but by the time I made it to the other store they were not. I still want cognac boots of some sort but don't have a need for them until I can fit into skinny jeans AND learn how to match.
DeleteI really like that the dress shows off the belly. It somehow makes me feel way less fat than some stuff that just looks like a tent. I'm glad you like it.
Jealous of the boots!
ReplyDeleteI haven't done much clothes shopping lately. The one thing I did get was $50 off the tablet I bought. Can't wait to get it tonight!
I think Dave got $50 off a ipad but I forget. Before we went shopping he said he was thinking of getting me a new ipad. I said I didn't need one. So then he bought a new one for him. Ha. But days/weeks later he decided to give me his old ipad so now I have 2. They are sitting one on top the other on my night stand. Probably should put one somewhere else so I actually use it.
DeleteDave buys himself so much stuff then wonders why I don't go out of my way to find cool Christmas gifts for him. He even ordered an xbox this week (not here yet). I bought these clothes but I wouldn't even spend 99 cents on an app I use daily so that I wouldn't get ads. He did the other night though and now I lost all my streaks and records and how many games I played. Ugh. It is weird without adds
I have an iPad but it's first gen and doesn't do what I want. I got a Windows tablet (shhh don't tell anyone) with a keyboard docking station/cover. It's kind of a laptop replacement.
DeleteJohn is so hard to buy for! I got him a super expensive fancy monitor with really high resolution. He loves it, but it was expensive and a difficult decision.
Dave spent like $2k on himself the past month. He does this every year. But especially this year we can't afford that plus a million "good" gifts. He said he bought me things but I don't buy myself a ton of stuff around now.
