FRE§H|FOR|LES§

    Ok, so I'm no "Save-the-day-coupon-mom" or anything (not yet anyways) but, as a young woman in a furiously growing-fashion conscious-frenzy of a world, I do need a good deal ;) You may agree, disagree, hate or love what I say, but regardless these things have helped me- and I'm no "Shabby-Sally" either!

   I ALWAYS sign up to receive retailers emails. I know you don't want to "fill up your inbox with junk", but lets be honest, your inbox is probably already full of junk so don't sweat it. If you're really concerned get a free email just for promotions. If you just refuse, go online and "Google" coupons or specials for the places you KNOW you need to get things; people post links for deals ALL THE TIME! Anyways, most places I shop send promotions and special offer coupons right to your email just for signing up. Here are some examples of some free stuff and/or discounts I recieved recently:

         1. Victorias Secret coupon for a FREE BEAUTY RUSH LIPGLOSS with ANY purchase of $10.00( a $7.00 value!!)
         2.  VS PINK coupon for a free 2.5 oz. PINK body lotion with any pink purchase-not clearance (a $6.00 value)
         3.  VS coupon for a FREE PAIR OF UNDIES (cute too!) and $10.00 off any bra purchase.
         4.  Best Buy coupon for 10% off any single regular priced item (great for my husband!!)
         5. Macy's coupon for an EXTRA 15% off CLEARANCE items--yesss :)
         6. American Eagle coupon for 15% off my entire purchase!
         7. Bath & Body coupon for any FREE signature collection item with any $10.00 purchase (a $12.00 value!!)
         8. Rue21 coupon for $10.00 off my next $30.00 purchase (a $10.00 value in case you didn't get it haha)
         9. Rue21 coupon for 20% off my next purchase just for signing up!

So, that's $45.00 (and then some) I'll save just by doing one simple little thing.

      Now my favorite part!!! Here are some fall must-haves I'm excited about :) I've taken the original higher-priced item and found a comparable less expensive one....
