Anna Sui - La Vie de Bohème 50 ml Eau de Toilette - limited edition caravan tin set:  $18 @ Winners (RSP:  $29.99 - $65)

I decided to exchange a gift, otherwise I probably wouldn't have come in here.  I totally didn't expect to find anything good today, but I was so happy when I found this:


I actually saw this when it was regular price!  I think they only had one, so I wonder if this is the exact same one I handled about a month ago.

I liked it then, and it was a good deal already, considering their regular price of $29.99 is around half off the original retail price....but I don't like paying "full price" for anything.
 

I'm glad I waited.  $18 is a steal!  I only had to pay $3.37 out of pocket, so that was even better.  Hooray!

I really love the bottle, so I might have bought it just for that for that price.  Luckily, the fragrance smells great too.  Win/win!

I was really surprised that the butterfly necklace showed up - it never arrived and the seller said they would resend it.  

By that time, it's too late to leave feedback, so I've had a lot of no shows in that situation.  I'm glad this one was honest!  The necklace is gorgeous.

Red chiffon dress:  $2.50


Janice Young for Vanessa - Lace butterfly floor length slip:  $2

Both @ MCC Thrift Store

The first one was a no-brainer!  The skirt has such a gorgeous flounce to it, and I love how fitted it is.  The button up detailing is a nice addition.  I might get rid of those sleeves though...and possibly shorten it.

I'm a sucker for butterflies so the other one had to come home with me.  I wonder if it would be appropriate to wear outside?

Padded corset:  $10.43
Metal bow pearl bracelet:  $1.49
Black lingerie set:  $3.25
Butterfly knee high stockings:  $1.63

All off eBay.

I've been trying to win that black lingerie set for the better part of a year!  I'm glad I finally managed to snag a set in my price range.

I've wanted the padded corset for a while, so I decided to pay a bit more than I normally do for them.   It's still cheaper than they normally go for, so I'm happy enough.

I'm trying to win a red one with black trim.  This style comes in a myriad of colour combinations but that was always my favourite one.

Flower cameo locket

$2 each @ The Mad Hatter's Superstore

I really didn't plan on buying anything like this today, but I'm such a sucker for beautiful things.  The mirror was just too gorgeous to pass up, and I've got a thing for cameos.

Blue thong:  $.60
Purple lingerie set:  $1.25
Purple butterfly thong:  $.99
Snoopy underwear:  $1.29

Both the first purple lingerie set and the blue thong are the right style, but the wrong colour-the first one was supposed to be black while the thong was supposed to be red.  I really wonder if I should bother to complain to the seller since that might get me banned.

Blue butterfly thong:  $.99
Black butterfly thong:  $1.12
Black butterfly thong:  $.99

The pantyhose was a nice surprise-it was much better quality than expected.  Most of the time sellers don't include packaging, so that was unexpected.

The thongs are gorgeous too.  I think I've pretty much exhausted most of the butterfly themed options at this point.

Red butterfly thong:  $.99
Blue butterfly thong:  $.99
Black butterfly thong:  $1.12
Purple butterfly thong:  $.99

I never cared for thongs before, but I find the butterfly ones incredibly gorgeous!  I made it a sort of mission to have one of every type I could find, especially if the price is right.

These are all from the same seller as the last bunch, and all including shipping just as well!
