Old Navy $0.75 dress?

"Steal of a Deal"
This is a quote i commonly say while shopping for two reasons,

1. I am always buying things from the clearance rack
 and 
2. Because I usually feel like I am stealing by their low prices

I typically get some dirty looks, because people think because I say this I am going to steal.
I have never and will never steal. It is disgusting, there is no reason to ever steal. period.

Below you will find the story, the pictures of the items I bought and my electronic receipt that Old Navy sent me after I took advantage of their sale.

Here are the details:
My boyfriend is awesome, he gave me his $30 old navy bucks because "you will actually use it"
God love him
I put it in my wallet so after any purchase I would remember to see it, I waited until the date finally came...

I went into Old Navy and saw signs saying that their clearance was an extra 30% off,  this excited me as I knew that was exactly where I was heading.

I instantly saw this little beauty, originally priced at $44.94

I asked a Old Navy sales girl if she could tell me how much this was dress was, because it didn't have a tag, after much confusion she said, how about I say it is $13.99 so it will be around 9 dollars. I said sold and ran to the dressing room to try it on, loved it!

Then I saw a body clutch that was priced at $9.99, it was going to be around 6 dollars,
The reason I say around is because of this next part of the story..

I got in line ready to buy these two items and then looked at the old navy bucks, I needed to spend up to $20 to get at least $10 off.

So I got out of line, I went back to check on a sweater I saw that was on clearance but in different place in the store, I asked a manager if it was the same  30% off clearance for this sweater he said "yes and if anyone at the front asked tell them the bald manager said it is" with a smile.
 It was stickered at clearance for $13.99, with an additional 30% (around 9 dollars)
originally priced at $34.94!


I smiled and walked back to line,
The cashier became very confused as I was telling her all of these new prices, so she called for a manager.

The bald manager came back, he then said these beautiful words

"Okay so this black dress was bought online and then returned here, so instead of calling Old Navy online and wasting 20 minutes of your time, how about I sell it to you for $1.47" 

My mouth dropped, I smiled said thank you repeatedly and I was very close to hugging him!
I then asked, can I still use my Old Navy Bucks?
He and She both said yes!!

Here is my receipt.
Yep. $0.75 for a $44.94, dress



These are the reasons to be nice to managers, wait for good sales, use your coupons and be frugal!

"It's my best thing"

Favorite things:
1.

Sending Cards to people. 
I remember when pen pals used to be the coolest thing, however it didn't go too far, more like passing notes in class then sending across the US of A. I think it is fun to send my friends near and far a little something for them to remember that just because we don't talk everyday, doesn't mean I don't think of them, love them and wish them the best, daily.


2.
Trader Joe's


I basically love everything in this store, from the creatively designed products, to the prices, to the checker today telling me she thought I was a celebrity based on my style (which, was nothing to write home about, but she made my day!)

3.
Travel Bag






My Jessica Simpson Havana Nights Travel bag has been near and far, but most recently from San Diego, to Riverside County to Los Angeles, and to San Marcos.

I live about 45 minutes from work, 1 hour + 25 minutes from my boyfriend, 30 minutes from my best friend and have friends in between, needless to say, I travel A LOT! I use up a lot of gas, keep half of my closet in the trunk of my car and stay at my Boyfriend or Best Friends at least once a week until I find a place of my own.

4.
