Hey you guys! I had such a busy day today but it was so much fun! I shopped at a bazaar and got myself a new blazer for a really good bargain. I don't know when or where I'll wear it but it was a steal at just a little over $10! Not only was it brand new, it also fit me nicely. Even if I only got that one item, the trip to the bazaar was really worth it for me. I love bazaars!
After a couple of hours there, my friend and I drove over to the mall where there was huge Mango sale. Mango is a Spanish brand sold in different countries globally. I've never bought anything from the store at regular price as the clothes tend to be too expensive for my taste. Also, the store goes on sale every few months so I just wait for the sale. Anyway, there was a special 2-day sale going on near the mall today and I was so happy to be able to find jeans and tops for dirt-cheap prices! I also got myself a pair of yellow leather sandals for $10!! How cheap is that?!! The best part of the day is an additional 10% off when I paid in cash plus free drinks and a pretzel! Woohoo! What a day!
I really love shopping. Window shopping's fine, but when I buy things on sale, it really really really makes me giddy.:)

Shopping is one of my favorite hobbies. I like window shopping for hours. Though I don't buy everything I see but I think I'm a good shopper.
Depending on my need, I make my decisions to buy the particular thing or not. I sometimes make decisions at spot. I like shopping very much and hence shopping makes me Happy.

It is a bit of a stress reliever for me, I love to get new things for my self and other and show them off. I also enjoy it when I can find a really good bargin.

I love shopping when there is a discount too! And I always feel so proud of myself if I bought cheaper things but they fit me perfect or they look absolutely gorgeous. I did some shopping on Monday (mostly on skincare) and I went nuts because of the 20% offer. I bought so many things and it was very satisfying.

Yes, bargain hunting is fun, lol. Glad to see you had a good day. Just don't turn out like my MIL. She seems to have to buy anything that's on sale, lol. Then she passes them off as Christmas gifts:(
I'm waiting to get that 20 pound bag of dog food she may buy one day because it's just such a steal. She doesn't have a dog, and neither do we. But in her eyes it may just be a good Christmas gift. After all, we should get a dog, lol.

Love love shopping too!
i bet ever girl does.
and nothing could be better than bargain shopping or shopping on thrift shops or vintage shops. it's nice to see very unique pieces and for half or even a quarter of a price of what you can buy in malls.
