Of cours...There's nothing like a good bargain.<br /><br />Of course, my favorite price is free :) but anything less than retail is fun.<br /><br />Our neighborhood is having a rummage this weekend (that's what they call it here - I'd call it a neighborhood garage sale!) and we have a few things to put out in the driveway tomorrow. Someone's going to get a bargain, because my dear husband is ready to give the stuff away for free! We just want it out of the garage so we have room to move.<br /><br />(That's what happens when six adults live in a four bedroom house with no storage...things get crammed in the garage.)<br /><br />But my best bargain ever was my Kitchenaid mixer (now my daughter's). It was the display model at Walmart, and I happened to walk by as they were dismantling the display - they had that puppy marked down to $40.00. I grabbed it.<br /><br />My favorite bargain story is similar to Kav's. I was looking for a table for my new apartment when I graduated from college. I found the perfect little oak table in a garage sale for $10.00 and thought I had a bargain...and then the guy said, "There are four chairs that go with this...they're down in the basement." Yup, all for $10. When I have a office, I use that little table for my desk. I still love it, 33 years later :)Jan Drexlerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05609332074458434806noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7945786327884906788.post-32665927748401519352013-08-09T09:38:36.263-04:002013-08-09T09:38:36.263-04:00Bargain hunting is almost a sport, isn't it, M...Bargain hunting is almost a sport, isn't it, Missy? We don't have Bealls or T.J. Maxx around here. We're getting a Target store soon though. :-) <br /><br />I haven't been shopping in ages but I think my last bargain shop was getting my dining room table at IKEA. This was over ten years ago. I'd never owned a dining room table and wanted one desperately. Imagine my euphoria when I found my table in the scratch and dent section -- a $350 table for $40!!! It was stretching my budget at the time but I couldn't resist. And then -- bonus...a few days later I found 4 chairs at a garage sale that matched the table for $10 for the set. I felt like a princess every time I sat down to eat at my honest to goodness table.

They had a clearance rack, and by the time they added in all the discounts, the package rang up for like 75 cents!! LOL I got such a kick out of it that I made sure to tell my dad. Of course, I also bought him another gift since the first one was practically free. :)Missy Tippenshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05480008023330542958noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7945786327884906788.post-69188893657928354262013-08-09T08:44:52.827-04:002013-08-09T08:44:52.827-04:00Oh, don't you just love a bargain?

List price was $35, but the sign said they were on sale for $16.99. Still more than I care to pay for a skinny piece of fabric, but I was also tired of shopping.<br /><br />So we go to the checkout counter and it rings up at $35. I mentioned the sign. One clerk converses with another, somebody has to go check something... In the end, we got the tie for $4. They were about to mark it for clearance, so they did just that. My son and I were both shocked. Now that's my kind of price. :)Mindy Obenhaushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15049730175697756032noreply@blogger.com
