Everyone loves a bargin, right? But, just because its on sale... doesn't mean its a good deal.
So how do you find the real bargins? I'm glad you asked! After working for years as a merchandiser, I learned the saying is true... "good things come to those who wait."
Everything goes on sale sooner or later... just keep checking your favorite stores.
On the other hand, department stores tend to have really good sales throughout the year, and particularly at the beginning of a new season. And its not what you're probably thinking... buying winter clothes in the summer and spring items in the fall. For example, you can find some pretty great deals in February... when folks are tapped out from Christmas and stores need the floor space for new Spring merchandise. And guess what? The clothes on sale... that's right, you got it, are winter clothes. And where I live, it's still cold in February.
Also, remember to shop smart! Don't buy it just because its on sale; 3 or 4 good buys can turn into a pretty expensive shopping trip, if you're trying to watch your pennies.
Another great tool is the internet! Hallelujah, for technology. If you're looking for a specific item... browse for that item on the web first. There are several websites that specialize in bargins like: http://www.shopittome.com/
Hope this helps. Love Yourself :-)
