Sale shopping can be exciting, enticing, entertaining and exhausting. It can also be downright dangerous - to your sanity, your self esteem, your image AND your wallet.
It is all about bargains. Finding one, catching one and then snaring one. A bargain is "a thing bought or offered for sale for a low price" So, using that definition, everyone can find (and buy) a bargain. However, is it a bargain if you a) do not need it, b) do not use it and c) it does not suit you? C is the big one. Nothing is worth the price - whatever the price, if it does not suit you.
The bright purple, extremely fashionable and "now", full length designer leather jacket that DID NOT work for you last week at the price of $$$$$$$ will still not work for you at the bargain price of $$$! The article has not changed, only the price tag!
It still has not passed the magical 3 Simple Steps Elimination Test. (3 Simple Steps of Successful Shopping - 1. does is work for YOUR colouring, 2. does it work for YOUR shape and 3. does it work for YOUR lifestyle.)
However, if the article in question gets a resounding Yes to all 3 elimination test questions - then grab it and run - do not dawdle - run to that customer service point, hand over the money and make that garment your own. It was meant to be!
The perfect garment that works for you (on every level) AND at a discount price. Now THIS is what successful sale shopping is all about. Go have that coffee and glance (only occasionaly, to stare and brag about your purchase would be mean to the other frustrated shoppers) at your perfect purchase in the carry bag. Smile (contentedly) and listen to your friends starting to question their shopping choices. Your shopping choice is perfect and they are already wondering if they have made good decisions.
Oh, it is great to be informed and able to source a REAL bargain.
Happy shopping!
