George Women's Pull-On Pants (2):  $3 each (RSP: $ 16)
George Womens Rayon Pyjama Pants:  $3 (RSP:  $16)
George Womens Black Rayon Pyjama Pants:  $3 (RSP:  $15)

All @ Walmart.ca

I bought the first one because it had pockets...a lot of them don't!  I bought the other two because they were supposed to be a really light fabric that was wearable in summer.  I prefer wearing pants even when it's hot, so I thought I'd try them out.

Stripe racerback midi dress:  $4.94 @ JoeFresh.com (RSP:  $19)

They had free shipping, so I thought I might as well get this.  It's an xs...but since it's not very form fitting on the model, and because it's made out of jersey, I thought it would fit.

And it does!  The crazy thing is, it isn't even too tight.  It totally looks like I'm wearing the right size. 

For some reason they offered free next day shipping, which normally costs $25!  5 times the price of this dress.  Stupidly, it ended up taking the same time as standard shipping!

George half zip fleece:  $3 (RSP:  $10)
Nygard pull on faux fly pants:  $3 (RSP:  $18+)

Both @ Walmart.ca

The first one was a gift for my brother.  I ordered a yellow one too, but it seems to be out of stock..I don't think it's coming back again.

The pants are the same as the other ones I bought, except in a different colour.  They look so horrible in the picture, but I swear they look fine in person!

Freebies from Willowbrook's outdoor expo.  They said that each bag was worth $25+!  Half of the stuff wasn't actually from their bag, I picked them up from the vendors that were there.

I also got a $25 gift card to a mall for viewing a presentation!  It was a good day.

Asymmetric foil print top - Bronze:  $4.16 (RSP:  $45.50)

All @ Ricki's

Their pictures are so deceiving!  The first two tops looked beautiful online, but in person...I was totally underwhelmed.

The first one looks like a really cheap pajama top.  Not how I expected at all!  I already returned one, and now I need to return the other.  

I'm actually returning everything except the pullover.  Surprisingly, that one fit, even though it's an XS!  It looks really nice too.

I like the asymmetric tops too, but they're pretty loose.  They're not as figure flattering as I hoped.  I just ordered a size down because they're even cheaper now, so we'll see how that goes.

Emporio Armani blazer:  $5


Metal Grecian woman lamp:  $10

Both @ Value Village

I haven't gone in a while, and I almost didn't go today.  I'm glad I did!  I almost always find something great when I go out.

I'm always happy to find Armani in my size.  Surprisingly, it happens pretty frequently!  I might have a closet full some day soon.

Funnily enough, it's exactly the same as the last one I bought, except this one has 2 buttons instead of 3.  

I don't always check the lamp section (because it's out of the way), but I'm glad I remembered to this time.  I was surprised it was so reasonably priced!


Her face isn't very pretty, so I almost left her behind just because of that.  But overall, I love how it looks...and I don't know when or if I'd find another one, so I decided to just get it.

I'm not going to use it as a lamp though.  I'm going to use it to hold my jewelry!  I just need to find a place to put it.

Now I'm really wishing I bought at least one of these lamps way, way, back..there were two there!


It would have made a beautiful stand!  It was even cheaper than the one I got today, and certainly better.  Hopefully it'll pop up again!

Free comic book day!  My family's collective haul.  My brother found me a TMNT later on, so I was pretty happy about that.
