Looking to save money on next season’s winter apparel? If so, now is the time to be hitting up all of the stores for their after-season sales! That’s right…the stores are already stocking their spring and summer apparel…now is the time to pick up some new fashions for next year.
I headed to one of my favorite stores when I’m bargain shopping for apparel. It’s called Gabe’s and it’s about 10 minutes from my home. Their inventory changes on a weekly basis. You can walk in one week and find deals…go back the following week and find new items to snag! It’s never the same shopping adventure twice.
After going through my wardrobe I realized that I needed some casual winter shirts and long-sleeve tees for next winter. Mine were all getting shabby and needed to be updated. When I shop for casual shirts I try to stick to solids in traditional colors. That way they’re easier to mix-n-match in my wardrobe. I can wear with denim jeans, joggers, lounge pants, etc.
Gabe’s had their long-sleeve tees from several different name brand manufacturers marked down to $5.99 each. I picked up one in a heathered purple and one in a teal color. I then found a cotton & spandex knit gray shirt on clearance for $4.99 and toss that into my cart too. Finally…I found this super cute casual striped knit shirt marked down for $4.99 and grabbed it. I wish they would of had more of that one in my size in different colors as I would of nabbed additional ones too.
In summary, I got 2 casual tees for $12.00 and 2 casual shirts for $10.00 = $22.00 total spent for 4 nice quality casual women’s shirts. Score!!!
Oh yeah, I almost forgot (and I forgot to take a photo)…I did purchase a 2-piece women’s pajama set that was marked down to $8.00 for the set. It has a long sleeve, light-weight top with jogger style bottoms. Super comfortable and I wear it a lot. Well worth my $8 bucks!!!
So…if you need to pick up some basic winter apparel to put back for next year…now is the time to be out shopping. When I pre-buy from one season to the next I try to stick to classic styles and classic colors. I stay away from anything that may be considered trendy. This way what I buy now will be in-style next year too!
I like everything you got and really like the teal and purple colors. Sometimes, I will find lots of good bargains and other times I can’t find a thing. You got some good deals.
I do not have a Gabes near me. However,there have been a lot of good sales at other stores and online. I found some nice clothing.
Its always fun to hear someone talk about GABES!! I was there this morning and OMG they do have so much on their clearance rack. And our has tables and shelves full of stuff marked down. This morning I got a lot of good deals plus stuff that is a OH I NEED THAT! I got a couple of tops off clearance and found for great niece a couple of pull over hats with gloves for $2.50 each. Didn’t buy any clothes for her but I did text her mother some pictures of stuff. they have a lot of craft stuff and some of it better price then dollar tree. I like shopping there have been doing it for over 50 years. It is so easy to get coupons with your purchases. Today I used two $5 coupons off my purchases and earned 2 more coupons.
I love the shirts that you got and what a great deal! I love a good score like that. I haven’t been out shopping too much been snowed in here but I will check the stores out when the snow clears.
