Classy and Opinionated Lifestyle Mom Blog
Okay, I know its June 17th and I know I’m a little (a lot) behind on some of my bargain hunting and frugal finds posts. Please forgiving me! We’ve had a LOT going on the past 2 months with the family. Back in early May …
How many of you enjoy shopping at your local Flea Market? We have several fleas that are within a 30 minute drive from our home. I really enjoy going to them when I have the time. We try to hit one up every month and …
How many of you live near an outlet mall? We have an Outlet Mall in Hershey, one in Gettysburg and then we have the world-famous super Outlet Malls down in Lancaster, Pennsylvania. Every year people flock to Lancaster County to visit the Tanger and Rockvale Outlet Malls. Between the two of the, I bet there is close to 150 stores!
A few weeks ago we were down to the Rockvale Outlet Mall and I was able to pick up some great deals! I came home with 4-5 large bags full of items. Today I’m going to spotlight just a few of the great deals that I found.
* I picked up this one-piece designer (name brand) women’s swimsuit dress that was regularly priced at $118.00 for only $15.00. Wow, what a deal! I really like how it fits me and you can tell that it’s quality-made. Really happy with my purchase.
* At another store that sells handbags, wallets and accessories I found this adorable floral print wristlet wallet. I had been wanting a new wristlet wallet to use when we travel but didn’t want to lay out a lot of money for one. The one that I purchased was originally $28.00 and I got it for $8.00. It’s cute!!!
* There are several food and candy shops & outlet stores down there and I found one of my favorite chocolate snacks in the one store. I’m a huge fan of BarkThins and typically pay $4.89 per bag at my local grocery store. The store down there had them for $1.00 per bag and yes…they were still in date (not expired) so I picked up a total of 10 bags and brought them home.
* In a discount store down there I purchased 4 new swimming pool floats that were originally priced at $10.00 each for 1/2 price, so I got them for $5.00 each and the family has been enjoying them in our pool for the past few weeks.
I got a lot of other things too, but those are the items that I wanted to highlight today. Do you live near any outlet malls? Do you like shopping at them and/or do you have any favorite ones that you like to visit?
How many of you have tried those Zero Gravity Lounge Chairs? I’ve been seeing them on TV and in the retail stores a lot. Some people absolutely love them, while others don’t seem to care for them. Every time that I’ve seen them in the …
One a month I like to get together with a few of my girlfriends and go out for some fun bargain shopping. After spending a few hours shopping, we will enjoy a late lunch or early dinner together. I enjoy spending time with my girlfriends …
You all know that I’m a bargain shopper and like a lot of you…I love finding a great deal. Well, I was on the hunt for some new winter boots and I found not one, not two but three pairs at a price that I couldn’t resist! Yes, three pairs!!!
Let me start by saying this. Last fall I purchased a pair of boots made by a different company, but very similar to the style that I’m featuring in my post today. The pair that I purchased last fall was in a solid black color and had a zipper entry on each boot. I had purchased them from an online retailer and paid $46.99 plus tax and shipping. They’re nice boots and I wore the heck out of them! Needless to say, this is why I needed some new boots.
I was browsing some of my favorite online retailers two weeks ago and found a deal that I couldn’t pass up! I was over on the DAWGS website and they were clearing out their boots and offering 3 pairs of them for $39.00 plus tax and shipping! As I browsed through their boot styles and colors that they still had available in my size, I found three pairs that I had to have. They’re all the exact same style, just different colors. I got 1 pair in solid black, 1 pair in chocolate brown and 1 pair in a fun leopard/animal print.
They’re slightly different in style from the boots I purchased last year. This style from DAWGS have no zipper, you simply pull them on and off your feet. They inside of each boot is lined in faux-fur which helps to keep your feet toasty warm. I like that they’re not too short, nor too high. I believe they’re 9″ tall boots!
Anyway, I purchased 3 pairs and after they arrived…I was even more excited that I had gotten them! They’re extremely comfortable and they look perfect with my denim jeans and leggings! Since we’re halfway through winter now…I’m sure they will still be perfect for next winter too. Wow, what a deal since one pair of these boots retails for $80.00 and up….I got 3 pairs of them for $39.00 plus tax & shipping. Wahoooooooo!
Disclosure: We’re NOT affiliates for this company and did NOT receive any products from them! We purchased the items directly and just sharing our great bargain find with all of our blog readers.

Over the past few weeks I’ve been working on giving my kitchen a good “deep cleaning”, down-sizing my kitchen goodies and then re-organizing everything that I decided to keep. At first I thought this project would just take me a few hours on a weekend, …
