It’s hot. How are you beating the heat? I made meself an iced vanilla almond chai. Spicy, sweet and cool. A winning combination.
I have to brag about my recent bargain. I have a bathing suit fetish. I limit myself to one per year because I don’t wear them all that often. I just love all the varieties: flowers, stripes, solids, patterns, embellishments! Since we’re going to the beach this weekend, I bee-bopped into Old Navy (sometimes I like to call it Old Air Force because I’m biased) to see what I could see with coups in hand. I totally won this one, walking out of the store with 60% off my purchase.
Top: $16.50 – $8.58 = $7.92
Bottom: $16.50 – $8.58 = $7.92
Sunglasses: $5.00 (clearance)
Total: $20.84
Since Old Air Force is really the only game in town, until TJMaxx opens, I signed up for their emailing list. They send coups to your email inbox! The more you use the coups, the more they send you and the better the coups <– best part. I do this with Loft and Express, too but I have to drive for quite a while to shop there.
I also went to K-mart and exchanged the beach chair that someone…ahem, Alex, cough, cough…broke when we were sittin’ in the sand at Port A. Heh, heh…whoops!
For the record, he is well under the suggested weight limit for these chairs. |
