The Budget Fashionista

My husband and I originally said that we wouldn’t be caught dead in stores today.  However, we needed to go to a couple stores anyway so we decided to hit some other stores in order to make returns and use up some gift cards.

I was very surprised by the *lack* of people in the stores.  The mall was pretty dead, considering, and there wasn’t so much as a return line at Target.  Part of it might be that I live in a college town and it’s typically pretty dead here between semesters—but it was pretty hectic here pre-Christmas.

Unfortunately, I also didn’t see great sales : (

Overall, it seemed like just another day.  Maybe things will pick up tomorrow, though.

Interesting post, Meg.

I’m in NY and went to the mall in Long Island...well, I think the entire borough of Queens and Long Island took off today, because there was nowhere to park. As you mentioned, the “sales” were god awful; it was a waste of a trip.

I think I’ll be waiting ‘til after the New Year to do a little shopping.

Hi Amz in Heels!

Things picked up today.  My husband and I went to Target again to replace some mixing bowls that broke yesterday.  The return line was to the door!  Fortunately, I was already done with my returns : )
