out of curiousity... where did you shop this season?

I'm an online and budget girl... so mainly amazon, overstock, and smartbargains.

for regular stores, I went to marshalls/homegoods and ann taylor for most of my stuff, and target for the wrapping supplies...

(oh, and MoMA for my cards, as I do every year....)

My one unusual store was aspinal of london... they're a pricy leather shop that had a wonderful sale in sept... I bought a lot of clearance!

If I do declare, I found some GREAT bargains!

how about you?

Re: out of curiousity... where did you shop this season?

Macys - I signed up for the 10% rewards program in September.

That's pretty much it, I was on a very strict budget so I tried to get the most bang for my buck - in addition to whatever Macys sale I found, I also got an extra 10% off (in essence since I was getting 10% of the purchase back).

I also hit up Wal Mart and Toys R Us (minimal purchases at each of these places).

Re: out of curiousity... where did you shop this season?

Pretty much the same places I normally go, except I didn't find anything in Macy's & couldn't use my 8 billion coupons.

Barnes and Noble
Lord & Taylor (ridiculous sale & coupon)
Crate & Barrel
Sears
Kmart
Home Goods
Staples
Michael's (for wrapping)
Lindt
Godivia
Eastern Mountain Sports


The only thing I ordered online was a magazine subscription.

Re: out of curiousity... where did you shop this season?

I didn't pay full price for anything this year. I used lots of coupons or waited until sites were offering free shipping. It was nice doing things online and avoiding the stores.

Amazon (joined the prime program to take advantage or 2day shipping)
Omaha Steaks (used $20 e-gc that they sent me, free shipping and 4 free steaks)
Borders (used bunch of 40% off coupons)
Target (purchased all the kids toys during Black Friday sales)
Pottery Barn (online, got free shipping)
PersonalizationMall.com (free shipping and 15% discount)
Brownies.com (free shipping and 10% discount)

Re: out of curiousity... where did you shop this season?

everything was online I did a lot of walmart.com, target.com and toysrus. I also have an ebates account and am getting a ton of rebates because before I shopped a store I checked to see if they were on ebates or not. Love that site!
