Last year Emma told me she would like to get some new clothes for school. This is coming for my daughter who runs away screaming when I ask her to try something on. I was so excited. We went right before school so we were only able to find a few things at Kohl’s. There weren’t a whole lot of choices.
With this being Andrew’s first year of school I knew they would both need or should I say want some new things. This year I was ready, I was going to start early. I didn’t want there to be only a few things to choose from so as I saw things going on sale I would grab them. I had a pretty good stash put away.
My mom went to Kohl’s and found some more great deals and got a huge bag of clothes for the kids. She also found some things at the Meier and Frank sale. I happened to be at the mall last week and Children’s Place was having their monster sale. Everything that was on Clearance was an additional 50% off. So I got a few more things. Well last night at Old Navy we had a huge clearance event with an additional 50% off of our clearance as well. With my 20% employee discount on top of that, well the deals were too good to pass up. What does all this mean? My kids have WAY TOO MANY CLOTHES…… again!
This morning Andrew woke me up much earlier that I would have liked. After I started a load of laundry I decided to add my bargains from last night to the other stuff that had been collected over the past month. We put together outfits for him. You would have thought it was Christmas. OK so he wasn't Christmas excited, but pretty close. He was so happy to see all his new clothes. “Can I wear them now?” he would ask. I told him no, except for two pairs of comfy shorts that are for around the house, they need to be kept for back to school. He is the daughter I have always wanted!
