Panda lunch bag

Pink silicone whisk

Porcelain cat jewelry holder

POP lunch box w/chopsticks (polka dots)

POP lunch box w/chopsticks (lace)

$2 each @ Daiso

Except the lunch bag, which was $4.  I thought it was worth that, it was cute enough plus functional!  I didn't see a 200 yen sticker on it though, so I wonder if they just jacked it up of their own volition.

Always love coming here!  I wish it were more convenient to get to.  I'll try to come once a month or so.  

I wanted to get more cute animal or strawberry lunch boxes, but they were all gone!  Hopefully the other one still has them.

That whisk was so perfect!  I love pale pink things, and clear things..together they're irresistible!

14K gold filled wolf ring:  $1.12 (Highest:  $4.02)

All off eBay.

I already have a gold mesh snake belt, but this one looked a bit different so I wanted to get it too.  To my surprise...it's so much lighter than my vintage one!  Probably about 1/4 the weight.

For the price, I'm not surprised.  A lot of the vintage ones go for $20+!  I had seen some costume ones that looked the same for around $10 new, but I think they're probably lighter like these ones.

I just found out that the gem necklace is a dupe of J. Crew's jewel encrusted necklace, except in different colours:

I don't think J.Crew has anything made in China, but this looks exactly the same to me!  I've read that some people say that these ones are the same quality as the real thing...so I really don't see why there's such a huge markup for costume jewelry.

I almost didn't go, but I'm glad I did.  I almost always find great stuff, and this was no exception!

I was pretty annoyed at the prices though.  This is one of the worst ones I've seen!  They had a lot of USED dresses for $20...which is crazy.  At least the other ones reserve those prices for NWT stuff!  

Which makes me really surprised that the Joe Fresh dress was so cheap.  It was extra small, so I didn't think it would fit...but thankfully, I tried it on and it did!  It wasn't even too tight, it was like magic.  

The 6 Shore road dress is missing 3 buttons, which means I'll have to replace all of them.  But the style is so gorgeous I thought it was worth the effort.

I wasn't sure about the last one, but since I'm a sucker for halters it had to come with me.

The coats...I'm sure the bebe one was new, because there were three of them, and all of the labels were cut off!  They all had slight staining to the sleeves, so I think they were probably donated by the company.

They were all marked a large, and they certainly looked the same size...but two of them were actually extra small!!  Thankfully, one was a medium, and that one fit.  But really, looking at the rack they all looked the same size!

Bebe stuff is normally super pricy even used, so I kind of thought the prices were sort of up there.  I do think they have a lot of interesting styles.

I was surprised to learn that the jacket only retailed for $129!  I guess they price things so high secondhand because there's a demand for it.

I was happy about the black coat, since I've been looking for a long, warm, fitted one for a long time.  The outside looks new, but there are a lot of tears in the lining that I'll have to repair.  Considering how great it looks on, I thought it was worth the effort!

The last part of my haul!  The black plaid dress wasn't new with tags, but since it was so cheap and I liked the material, I had to get it.

I'm happiest with the plaids.  Even though those ones were made in the 70's, they still look so modern!  They had a ton of short sleeve plaid ones, but those looked horrible...the sleeves were so huge and boxy!

It was a great day though.  That's never happened to me before, and I'm sure I'll remember it forever!  

A lot of these dresses came with belts too, so it was even more of a steal!

I don't normally go to this one first, but I did because I wanted to get that dog purse!  Thankfully it was still there.

I don't normally like animal shaped purses since most of them are way too childish.  But this one was fashion quality!  The dog was stiff and somewhat realistic, plus the strap is made of leather!  

When I went home, I saw that it sold on ebay for $30-$50 new....that's when I thought I should have bought it!  But I decided to wait since I didn't want to go back just for that.

Well, it was in a different section, so I thought I missed out.  Thankfully, that wasn't the case!  It really grew on me, though I don't know if I would use it.  It really doesn't hold much!

I also saw that fuzzy nation makes a lot of neat, realistic dog shaped purses too.  They're around $50 each!

I think they're really neat, but I wouldn't pay that much for them.  I might as well attach a strap to any realistic plush dog!

I'm so glad I went to this one.  It was late, and I wasn't expecting much..luckily there was some stuff waiting there for me.

I'm happiest about the boots!  I was really surprised to see them, since this is supposed to be summer clearance.  The heel has a small problem, but it'll be an easy fix.  I couldn't leave them behind for that price!

I've heard of the brand before, but never paid attention to their prices.  Winners said the regular price was $120, but I saw their actual pricing online and was floored.  Score!

12 x Lace underwear: $.63 each @ EFADS (RSP:  $1.25- $2 each)

It would have been $18 for all of them at full price!  I ended up paying a bit over $7.

I think all of these chains are closing down...it's kind of sad.  I'm glad I didn't pay full price for these, but now I'm kicking myself for paying $1 each!  

Most of the ones I bought last time were still there...only 3 of them weren't. 

Even then, that's just the specific colour, they still had the same styles there!  Would have saved myself $3 if I waited until now.

I really love the one with the little hearts.  That wasn't there last time.  All of these are pretty cute, I wouldn't have thought they came from a dollar store if I didn't buy them myself.

Things are down to 8 items for $5...if it goes even lower, I might buy more!

Well, this location was almost a bust.  Everything was still pricey, thank goodness I stumbled upon this section!  It wasn't even properly placed in the final clearance area, which is probably why I lucked out.

I would have left the black panties behind if it wasn't for their original price!  They seemed pretty basic, the quality and design didn't seem to warrant the price.

Turns out the company has been in business for 125 years....impressive.

They're made out of 100% cotton, but it's so smooth it doesn't feel like it!  Definitely a great find.  It goes for $36 new!

Funnily enough, just about all of the Winners tags show a much lower "compared to" price.  The blush panties were $18 off the mark!
