Newest Bargain


So, I love to bargain shop. There is nothing more rewarding than finding a good bargain in my opinion. I never buy full price, if at all possible. To me it seems wasteful to pay $20 for a shirt when eventually I could get it for $3, if I wait long enough. I love yard sales, thrift stores and auctions too. I got our two couches for $2 at an auction. That is total for both. I also just got about 5 pretty new pairs of jeans and capris at a thrift store for .25 each. You can't beat it. So today I was at Dillard's and they are having a sale when you get an extra 40% off all their previously reduced stuff. I have been searching for a Duvet cover for our king bed. We already have a comforter for it so it seems silly to get another one that you then have to store. So to change things up in our room I thought just getting a duvet cover would work but they are so expensive...again, I'm not paying $75+ for two pieces of fabric sewn together. Whey duvet covers are more expensive than the actual comforters is beyond me. So anyway, I have had my eye our for a couple of months for one and low and behold today I go in and find one that normal price is $160. I ended up getting it for $23! Additionally they had a bed skirt that matched normal price $45 that I got for $2.99. I love a good bargain. I also got Patrick 3 belts that normal price were $40 each for $5.70 each. God always provides for us. And as I was reflecting on that today I was just so thankful because he does lavish His love on us and provide abundantly when we are faithful to Him. Our God is an awesome God.
Here is a picture of the duvet cover. I think its elegant. And it wasn't pink so Patrick liked it too. They didn't have all the accessories, but I can find things over time to match.
