Leave a reply

I hope everyone had a happy Thanksgiving!  I spent it with my family in my hometown, and I ate turkey, but I actually had more honey glazed ham this year.  Remember that tomorrow is Cyber Monday, the best day of the year to shop online.  Make sure you check the online sales out!

Prices of Steal or Splurge outfits

Here are the answers to the Splurge or Steal contest:

I asked you to leave a comment telling me which outfit you thought was the steal (from TJ Maxx) in both photos.  You should have answered Left for #1, Right for #2.

#1: Splurge: $707.99, Steal: $346.94.  The white shoes cost $99.99 at department stores, while only costing $19.99 at TJ Maxx.
