Impulse buys but practical!  I was surprised those gloves retailed for so much.  I though they'd be useful since I don't have any other gloves made from that material.

I almost didn't go to this one, because it was so out of the way...that would have been a mistake!  I wasn't sure if there would be anything left, but there was plenty I wanted.

Most of it was in perfect/near perfect condition too!  That surprised me.

That pillar candle holder is huge!  You can't even tell from the picture.  It's great quality, even their regular price was decent.

They had a ton of other pillar candle holders for as low as $.70 here!  They were covered in beads, and were nice quality too.  But...I had no use for them.

I don't really have a use for this one either, but it was just too good to pass up!  There was a $2 one I liked too, but I didn't feel like lugging around all of these heavy things.

I almost bought this pretty jeweled Shourouk inspired clutch.  It was nearly perfect, but it was missing two beads.  It was also a floppy velvet, so I didn't like it as much.  If it were cheaper, I would have bought it anyway...but it didn't feel worth it for $5.

Also passed up tall suede boots for $9!  I almost bought them, but in the end, I thought they just looked two rough.  They weren't even the same shade!  Plus there was some other weird discolourations and scuffs, so I'm glad I left them.

I'm glad I started checking this place out!  The scarf was such a great deal.  I'm glad I didn't pay $3 for it a while back.

The makeup bag is pretty crappy quality...it's not even sewn straight!  The sides are really misshappened.  But since I loved the print, I picked it up anyway.

Surprisingly, I got all of this stuff only an hour after the last time!  I really didn't expect them to mark things down so fast, but they did it twice in that time!  I'm so glad I decided to look again.

I was really excited about those gloves.  I've been eyeing them since they were $10!  I didn't want to pay that much, even though they were always in perfect condition.  These ones are ripped near the fur, but it's an easy fix.  

$10 seemed more like regular price, especially considering that the fur isn't real.  It just didn't seem like much of a deal.

I was pretty happy about that dress too.  I loved the colour, but it was $9 when I first came.  I thought it'd go down to $5, so $3 was a nice surprise!

Ditto on the jacket.  I actually didn't even see it the first time around, but even if I had, I don't think I would have been tempted to pay $16 for it.

$11 was a steal!  Especially considering that it's filled with feathers.  The other puffer I have is just filled with polyfill.   If I knew it was this good, I might have been tempted to pay the $16, so luckily I didn't see it until then.

I'm happiest about that jumpsuit.  It's so neat!  What a great price too.

The velvet clutch is also quite pretty.  I just need to put something at the top, because a decoration is missing there.  No big deal...at least everything else is in perfect condition.

Lace up shiny pvc gloves (black and red):  $5.86 each @ Walmart

Full price....I rarely ever pay that!  But I've been looking for gloves like this for a long time, and I thought the price was decent.  They go for $12+ online!  I've even seen this exact brand sold for over $20 in places.

Found larger stock images online, which sold me on going back to walmart and picking them up:

Sadly, they're a lot cheaper in person!  Some of the fingers are weird lengths, and they're sloppy at the tips.

They're still ok, just not as nice as they look in the picture.  I really would have preferred to get them for half price...if they are around on half price day, I'll totally be kicking myself!

This is the stuff I was excited about!  The dress is definitely the best deal for this round.  It's such great quality and just gorgeous.

I was also happy about the leather gloves, but I really wish the black ones were cheaper.  They were missing one stud!

Both of them are perfect otherwise, and $5 for a perfect pair of leather gloves is a steal to me.  I didn't want to come back later so I bought them anyway, at least they're warm and awesome looking.

The Lolita Lempicka bath foam was an afterthought.  I wasn't sure if I wanted it!  The prospect of getting something from Sephora for cheap clinched it for me...plus it smelled nice and the jar was cute.

Now I'm really glad I did, since it retailed for around $50!  I'm pretty happy with my purchase.

All @ Value Village.

I really wasn't expecting much from the 75% off sale (especially since I didn't go early), but to my surprise, almost everything from before Halloween was still there!

I didn't buy any costumes because they're always such crappy quality.  I'd feel dumpy wearing them.  The above I'd actually wear in real life...they're gorgeous!  Especially that belt. 

They all look like normal quality, which is probably why they were priced so high.  I actually found a picture of it on their website:

I also thought about buying this paper/wood geisha umbrella - it was only $2.50!

I thought it was actually really nice quality for a costume piece, but the illustration could have been better.  In the end, I didn't think I would use it.  Ditto with those pearl gloves in blue (they were so gorgeous).  Go me!  Getting marginally better with money.
 
I don't collect Polly Pockets, but the bag had at least ten pair of shoes that fit minis (no other company makes them, that I know of).  I saw that those accessory sets retail for around $30, so I feel like I got a steal!  The one I saw only had 4 shoes too.

Those things are so tiny, kudos to the kid who managed to keep them all together!

As for the My Scene doll...I just wanted the boots.  They're pearlescent and so pretty!

I grappled with paying $2 when that was the only thing I wanted, but in the end, I decided to get them.  Turns out someone else was willing to pay $6 for the boots alone, so I feel way better about it!

Now this was another surprise.  I wasn't even planning on going to this location since it had next to nothing two weeks ago. I ended up going because I had time to kill and it was in the area-I'm glad I did!

It did have one small table left, but I managed to find some things I wanted.

Those gloves are so odd.  I don't know why they're priced so high since they're unlined and unhemmed!  I think it's because they're made in Italy.  At least the leather is really nice.

I thought the bath melts were chocolate at first!  The heart shaped box, the paper cupcake liners, all of the white...that's originally why I picked it up.

I don't normally buy bath stuff I wouldn't use, but then I saw the price-I couldn't believe their price was $20!  Makes me wonder what actual retail is. $35!


Anyway, it was pretty and cheap so it came home with me.  I probably won't even use them.  They smell good so I'll probably just put them in my bathroom.

The brown tights are pretty nice quality, and so is the pantyhose. I'm stocked up for a while now!

The tunic was a steal!  It was actually way better quality than I thought it would be.

Conversely, the zebra dress was way worse than I thought.  I kind of wish I didn't buy it. 

I thought I was passed the cute stage, but I just had to have that t-shirt.  I'm surprised it's not engrishy, and I got it for such a great price.

The seller sent me the wrong gloves so they refunded me-the gloves were supposed to be ruched as shown, but they just sent me plain ones.

I kind of wish I paid less for the gloves since I saw them cheaper later on-oh well, they're gorgeous anyway.

I thought I might have been able to wear the costume as a top, but it turns out it has gold lame accents..I don't think it's going to work out.

The bag arrived damaged so the seller refunded me.  Since they shoved it in an envelope, it came flattened with a big crease in the front...I don't really think it's usable anymore..

I spent soooo long at this location...I really only wanted the lace/pleather gloves, the sunglasses, and the compact (it's also a handy pop out brush!)-I wanted them so much I decided it was worth it to pad out my order.

It took until closing time for me to decide-I'm satisfied with what I picked out, except I wish I didn't pick up the studded gloves.  I forgot that I already had them in that colour, and these ones have some missing studs that I didn't notice at the time.

I wish I picked up another pair of lace/pleather gloves, since the seem is coming undone at one of the fingers.

I also wouldn't have minded a backup pair, since these are comfortable and look great...whereas the other ones are uncomfortably tight.  Oh well, live and learn!

I don't really care for Hello Kitty, but I didn't think anything else there was worth it.  I'll probably see if I can give it to someone who's into that sort of thing.
