Flower bouquet ring:  $1.04

Royal blue quilted purse:  $4.93

Black rose belt:  $1.06

All off Ebay. 

Delicious - brown knee high boots:  $10

Bought these off of Craigslist-they were described as only being tried on once at home, which is the highest degree of 'used' I would accept.  

It took a while to arrange a meet up with the seller, and for a while I didn't think it would happen..but I'm really glad it did, because the boots are gorgeous!  Much better than expected.

Sele - little black dress:  $.70 @ Winners (RSP:  $40+)

Jessica Simpson rope belt:  $.70 @ Winners (RSP:  $44)

C'est moi - black/white dress:  $2 @ Winners (RSP:  $50+)

Ali & Kris - pink plaid bustier top:  $2 @ Winners (RSP:  $34)
Ali & Kris - blue plaid bustier top:  $2 @ Winners (RSP:  $34)

This one was pretty cleared out-there was literally only one tiny round rack of clothing left when I arrived.  How ironic that I ended up buying most of my clothing from this location.

And so ends this round of Winner's final clearance.  It sure was a great one-I can't wait until next year!

Dreams - purple caged shoes:  $1 @ Winners (RSP:  $60)

Chinese Laundry - chain belt:  $.30 @ Winners (RSP:  $38.50)

Buffalo by David Bitton- black belt:  $1 @  Winners (RSP:  $25)

I really like the look of the shoes, but I might return them because they're too big.  A size larger than I normally wear..and pretty wobbly to walk in.  

Then I think, they were only a buck!  At the very least, I do like looking at them....they were that cheap because one of the zippers is broken.  I don't have any other shoes that look exactly like that, and I keep on thinking I could make them work somehow. 

The chain belt is broken too (missing the stud to link the belt together), but I'm sure I can fix it.

The last one was broken too, but it's a really easy fix.  The fabric covering the buckle just needs to be glued back on.  

I guess these were all still left since nobody else likes fixer uppers!

Unfortunately, I had to work on this day, so I was really rushed in the end.  Since I was starting around mid day, I couldn't go to all of the ones that I originally wanted to.

This was the last one on my list.  It was pretty far away, and I had never been there before...since I was so strapped for time, I almost considered not going.

Well, I'm really glad I reconsidered!  This was the best one yet-shoe heaven!  I got a lot of crazy stares when I was filling my cart, but it was so worth it.

The grey dress is my favourite piece of clothing from this entire clearance haul-it's gorgeous!  Most of them were $5, but this one was the only one clearanced lower for some reason. 

It's actually already my size too, so that's a plus.

I was exhausted at work after this entire run, but at least I was extremely happy :). 

Wishes Wishes Wishes - black/grey lace up dress w/lace accents:  $2 @ Winners (RSP:  $45+)

Boom Boom Jeans- ruffled jean dress:  $2 @ Winners (RSP:  $50+)

JFW by Just for Wraps - jean dress:  $2 @ Winners (RSP:  $40+)

Jessica Simpson - JP Oneil heels:  $3 @ Winners (RSP:  $125)

Chinese Laundry - Suzana heels:  $5 @ Winners (RSP:  $70) 

Finally, some clothes!  I was really starting to think that I would walk away empty in this department.  Nothing else I had seen previously was worthwhile.

Some of these are a bit too big for me, but that'll be an easy fix.  Totally worth it for the price!

The shoes are both size 10's-normally way too large for me in that type of shoe, but surprisingly, the Chinese Laundry pair fits pretty perfectly.

The Jessica Simpson shoes don't fit as well, but they seem pretty workable.  I like the design, and it was a great price, so I probably won't return them.

Dollhouse - Molly sandals:  $5 @ Winners (RSP:  $60)

Michael Antonio - Taji - gladiator heels:  $3 @ Winners (RSP:  $60)

Dollhouse - Lidyana sandals:  $3 @ Winners (RSP:  $40) 

I was realllly happy by this point of the day.  Little did I know that this would be the start of a rather fearsome shoe windfall. 

Luichiny - Passa Fy Bootie:  $9 @ Winners (RSP:  $100)

Dollhouse - Lidyana sandals:  $3 @ Winners (RSP:  $40)

I wasn't sure about the boots, but now I'm glad I bought them.

They were size 10's...they fit fine, but I thought a smaller size might be even better.  I didn't end up seeing them anywhere else, so I'm glad I picked them up when I had the chance. 

Their logo is so stupidly illegible, I had to get help on the internet to decipher it!

As for the sandals...I didn't have any before, I've always found them ugly.  Leave it to Dollhouse to produce some that I actually like.

I'm not sure how often I'll be wearing them, but it's nice to have the option. 

Dollhouse - Tano - red floral lace platforms:  $10 $5 @ Winners (RSP:  $60)

Cameo necklace set:  $1 @ EFADS

Rose/pearl/crystal earrings:  $1.12 

Black coral rose bead:  $.25

Coral coral flower bead:  $.26

Red lace up belt:  $1.96

These are the sexiest shoes I've ever seen!  So vampy and gorgeous.

When I saw them, it was instant love...the strongest, most enduring love I've ever had for a shoe, as wrong as that sounds.

They were even my size.  One pair there, and my exact size-I just had to have them!

Even had my name on them...seriously!  What more of a sign could you ask for?  They're labeled "Jeni", even though I can only find them under "Tano" on the web.

I was pretty conflicted though.  I knew that if they were still there the next day, they would have been half price....

In the end, I just couldn't risk it.  I hadn't seen them at any of the other Winners, and I would be really sad if I missed the chance to get them.  Ended up finding them for $5 at another one.  Hooray!

Turns out they're nearly identical Louboutin copies. 

Don't know how I feel about that...I'm fine with 'inspiration', but not the complete ripping off of an entire idea.  Well, at least the originals probably didn't come in red..

Pretty happy about the cameo set I got today.  I actually bought a similar one over a year ago and I really regretted not getting more (I just bought one pink one).

The cameo is actually the same as the other one I bought, except in a different colour.  

This time the actual cameo was the same, but the rhinestone settings came in red, white, and orange.  Probably blue and pink as well, judging from what I saw there. 

I actually don't really like orange, but I bought it because the cameo itself was the nicest.  The shading was the most uniform, the carving the crispest, and it just had the best sheen/color variation to it. 

This one has a really beautiful shell like finish to it, opposed to the first one I bought that was just uniformly one matte color.  I'm really hoping I can find some in decent condition at the other ones. 

All in all a really great day.

Apple Bottoms - Julisha - purple suede open toe ankle boots:  $9 @ Winners (RSP:  $80)

Revolution by Edwin - orange snakeskin wallet:  $5 @ Winners (RSP:  $48) - returned -

XOXO - white belt:  $2 @ Winners (RSP:  $20)

Chinese Laundry:  black studded belt:  $2 @ Winners (RSP:  $30)

I love final clearance time-too bad it only comes twice a year!  

Maybe that's for the best, since I tend to go just a little crazy whenever they're on.

I also saw these Dollhouse shoes for $5-it took me so long to make a decision!

I ended up passing because they were too big for me..size 10's.  That's my preferred boot size, but it just doesn't work for shoes like these.

The real clincher was this-they were the most uncomfortable shoes I've ever worn!  I seriously couldn't walk two steps in them without feeling the pain.  I've tried 6 inchers before, but the real problem was the crazy incline.

I guess what's crazy is, I still would have bought them if they were my size!  A 9 max.  I would probably even buy the pair I passed up if they were clearanced again!

I would probably never wear them even if they were my size, but I would enjoy looking at them!  They don't need to be my size for that :P.

Bamboo - black boots w/pink riveted accents:  $5

This was a first for me.  I ended up buying this from someone off of a Craiglist type site-the first time they inadvertently stood me up, but I'm glad I gave them another chance.

I wouldn't normally consider buying used footwear, but this was listed as being brand new, never worn.  

I inspected the soles and they were indeed clean, so I feel like it was an accurate description.  That and the fact that the seller had other items that were disclosed as being used.

It was my size exactly-8.5.  I don't normally like using my actual size, and it was especially risky this time since I couldn't try it on first.

Well, it ended up working out great, and I'm really happy I took the chance.   It came with a matching pink hat (not the same brand), but I'll probably end up donating that.

I'm going to be looking for more items locally, but only if they're brand new, or have only been tried on once or twice inside.  I'm sure most 'new' shoes have had the former done to them, so it feels like the same kind of deal :P.

Romanesque pillar frames (4):  $1 each @ EFADS

Pink plaid glasses case:  $1 @ EFADS

Chinese Laundry socks - purple/white 2 pack:  $.70 @ Winners (RSP:  $10)

Chinese Laundry socks - pink/white 2 pack:  $.70 @ Winners (RSP:  $10)

Some of the colours aren't that great, but how can you go wrong for $.35 a pair?

The frames are for my notre dame postcards.  I'm really happy I finally found a suitable frame for them.

As for the case...I'm just a sucker for pink plaid.  I was considering buying a laptop with the same motif (still am), so I thought I would get this to match.

True Love by Penny Loves Kenny - knit - snakeskin pumps w/rose embellishments:  $8 @ Winners (RSP:  $50+)

Joe Fresh - 'silver' eyeshadow:  $.04 @ Superstore (RSP:  $4)

I didn't think they would restock the eyeshadows, but they ended up having two of this shade when I went today.  The cashier wouldn't let me use my card, when I knew I could....but I didn't argue because I was short on time.  

After a tiring day of work, I ended up checking out the nearby Winners.  Most of the things weren't really clearanced that low, so I was surprised to find these.  

They caught my eye right away, and they just happened to be the only ones on sale!  I'm really happy they're mine.

Groove - 'Prop' high top tennis shoes:  $3 @ Winner's (RSP:  $30)

Enamel flower ring:  $1.12 off Ebay

It's finally Winner's final clearance again!  I'm so excited.  The first one I checked out wasn't that great, but hopefully the other ones will be better.

It's funny.  It took me a really long time to decide upon two pairs of shoes...the first pair was a $5 pair of Cougar shoes.  Thermal, retail price of $80, comfortable...but in the end I passed because they just weren't that nice.  I have some shoes that are both cute and comfortable, so I thought there was no point in settling for less.

I found the above shoes for $5 as well, but decided to pass on them.  I just thought maybe I could find a better deal on them elsewhere.  

Funnily enough-just before I left, I found another pair clearanced to $3.  Love that I didn't have to wait too long!

Flannel sheet set:  $4.89 @ Liquidation World (RSP:  $20+)

Striped 400TC sheet set:  $10 @ Liquidation World (RSP:  $60)

Striped/floral 300TC sheet set:  $7.50 @ Liquidation World (RSP:  $30+)

Silver/clear eyelet belt:  $1 @ Liquidation World

Swarvoski flower ring:  $1.12

Black rose bead:  $.23

Black flower bead:  $.21

Faux pearl bracelet:  $1.04

Finally!  I've been waiting the whole year to pick up new bed sheets.  I'm really glad I didn't purchase any of these sets before now..I was really considering the striped one for the longest time, but I thought I could find a better price elsewhere.  

The belt rang up as American Eagle, but I don't see any markings on it.  I thought it had a cool futuristic look to it, but I'm sure it can work for practical outfits too.  I'm just such a sucker for wide belts.

The jewelry's from Ebay-the bracelet broke the first day it arrived!  A shame, it was actually prettier than I expected.

Joe Fresh eyeshadow:  less than free (!) @ Superstore (RSP:  $4)

The colours are chocolate, plum, espresso, pebble, and midnight.  I grabbed one of each type left-there were only about 8 eyeshadows left when I got there! 

Their retail price is $4, but they were on sale for $2.04.  They also had a coupon this week for $2 off any Joe Fresh eye makeup, which was probably an oversight.

With my discount, I actually ended up getting money back!  That amused me greatly.  They paid me $.78 to take this stuff away :P. 

Gold bear:  $1.25

Flower/gem cuff:  $1.79

Black 'coral' flower:  $.24

Purple 'coral' flower:  $.15

Red 'coral' angel:  $.24, $.30

Flower ring:  $.39

I love that gold bear-all of his limbs are movable, and he has swarovski crystal detailing in the middle.  It was supposed to be a necklace, but I'm hanging it from my PSP instead.

The cuff was a bit of an impulse buy.  It is nice, but I probably wouldn't have paid as much if I saw it in person.

I bought all of the coral beads to turn into rings.  The angel was a total disappointment-it looked incredibly beautiful in the seller's photo (which only showed a partial side), but ended up being horrifically ugly in person.  

I've never been so surprised by an online buy in my life!  The bead is seriously grotesque.  I'm glad I paid so little for them, but it's too bad I'm stuck with two. 

Pink rose purse:  $10.50

Black quilted barrel purse:  $7

White quilted barrel purse:  $6.50

Finally, Ebay purses that aren't total disappointments! 

I'm absolutely in love with the pink one.  It's ingenious!  It can be worn two different ways-via the strap shown above, or the embedded handle hidden at the back.  Totally worth the price!

I didn't take a picture of it, but it's the same kind of handle this grey clutch had. 

The bottom two are pretty cute, but I had to stuff them to get them to a decent shape.  I hope they won't reform back to their shapeless selves once the stuffing comes out.

If I saw them in person, I don't know if I'd be willing to pay as much, considering the quality.  Ah, the magic of Ebay pictures!

What annoyed me was, the seller packed them rubbing together..and the white purse arrived with stains!  It doesn't really show up in the pictures, but it's pretty noticeable in person.  I really hope the seller will do something about this. 

Monkey wallet:  $1.50

Swarovski elephant ring:  $.99

Biwa pearl ring:  $1.16

Beaded flower choker:  $1.52

The wallet's pretty kitschy, but I thought it was kind of neat.  It has a little coin purse that's attached inside, the front is die cut, and there are even hand holding monkeys to be found!

American Eagle jeans:  $3 each @ Liquidation World (RSP:  $50+)

Dussault jeans:  $.75 @ Liquidation World (RSP:  $130)

They were clearanced to 75% off the lowest ticket price, so I just had to snatch them up.  I normally don't bother since they don't have dressing rooms at any of the Liquidation Worlds I've seen before, and it's a huge hassle to bring them back.

I bought three size 2's and one size 0-they were supposed to be goal pants of sorts.  It turns out that two of them actually fit right now, so the sizing must be off.  The quality is pretty nice, and I like that they vary the button and pocket designs. 

The size 0 is actually the same style as one of the size 2's.  It doesn't look like a true 0, it's probably a standard size 2.  Well, we'll see if I ever fit into them!

The Dussault jeans were the same deal.  I just couldn't pass up new jeans for $.75...the ones I bought previously were size 26, while this one's a size 24.  I still can't zip up the 26's, so I'll be really amused if I ever fit into the 24's. 

White rose ring:  $1.04
