Haul-ah #3: School Supplies + Thrifting


In the video, I show you some of the school supplies that I bought from Office Max and some awesome clothes I bought from Goodwill.

At the time that I went to Office Max, there was a sale of some sort where you spend $25 and get $5 and if you make at least a $5 purchase, then you get 20 free #2 pencils. I had to take up on this deal!

On top of that, Office Max gave me a coupon for Payless, which was printed onto my receipt, for $10 off a $25 purchase at Payless. I needed new kicks so I had to go!!!! I didn't show my shoes or other dept. store purchases in the video because that portion was cut-off or deleted. I don't know why.

Below are a few shots I took of my thrift store finds:

Hollister Pink & White Button-Up Shirt $7
Hollister Red Plaid Button-Up Shirt $7
MOSSIMO (Target) Gray & White Striped Shirt $5
Maurices Teal Blazer (from Maurices not Goodwill) $32
+ Pink Hollister Tank (Goodwill) $5
trying to show you how the blazer kind of points out at the shoulders
Target Lace Dress $25 (from Target not Goodwill)
Haha...my niece Alexia is trying to be cool while filming me *PEACE*
KISSing time! LOL she trying to pose like a teen

COACH purse STEAL @ Goodwill

Sorry everyone for posting late...once again!
But, I really wanted to share my AMAZING steal at Goodwill.
This Coach purse was originally sold for $102.96
and at Goodwill it was sold for $39.99 but it
was half off for this week and I happened to buy it!
So, I got it for $15.74 (with tax).
This goes to show...that you SHOULDN'T
take thrift stores for granted!
You  never know what you can find :)

BTW, you're probably wondering if this purse is authentic
or not. It is, no worries. It has the original tags on it
with the original packaging and everything else!

Haul-ah! #1 - AEO, F21, H&M, Gap, Kohl's, Goodwill

From now on, I will be calling my hauls...Haul-ah! #whatever.
Today is Haul-ah! #1!!!! ENJOY :)
AVENGERS!!!!
Puuurrrrr-feeeccct! Way to start out a blog!
The Avengers rock! If you haven't seen the movie...well, you're missing out!
I found this gray tee in the Men's section of Kohl's and could NOT
refuse on buying it. It was on sale for $8.99.
Who's your favorite AVENGER?
Gap Pink Shirt - $12ish after discount
Originally $19.99 and on clearance for $16.99
I love the sleeves
Lauren Conrad Studded Skirt - $5-$8 (Goodwill - new w/tags)
close-up of the studs and flower pattern
Decree Lace Top - $2.50 (Goodwill)
ELLE Gray-White Sequined Top - $3.50 (Goodwill)
Shirt was on sale so it wasn't $7
WEATHERVANE
Back of WEATHERVANE jeans - Goodwill
These jeans are amazing on! And, they're so unique!
The back pocket, featured above, is quite long on the buttocks.
It like drags down towards your thighs more so your butt looks nice!
I'll post up a picture of me wearing them and showing you how this
looks whenever I start wearing these jeans.
American Eagle Shorts - $24.99 each
This is the tag of one of the workout pants I got from Forever21
I didn't take an actual pic of the pants or
other stuff I got from F21 since they didn't turn out well
That's it for the haul pictures. Hopefully I upload the haul video soon! Thumbs up

ALDO flats = STEAL

I've been eyeing these babies for awhile now, and I finally
bought them from Goodwill! I'm surprised they weren't gone yet!
They're still in very good shape and I love the metallic color
and the design on the top of the flats.
As always, blogger likes to rotate my pictures back to
the original format...and not like the way I had edited it! (GRRR!)

Above is a close-up of the design of the flats.
Now that I look at it it kind of looks weird, but 
normal is boring. My new style...hehehe!
The price stick says it's a size 6, but it's not!
It's gotta be a 7 because it's too big on me, 
although I will get them to fit! ALDO shoes aren't cheap!
These flats were definitely a STEAL!

Thrifting + Giveaway Update

Today, I went thrifting and bought tons of clothes...$45 worth of clothes.
I only bought two items for myself, 1 for my mom,
LOTS for my sis, and my brother-in-law.
Below are my findings along with how much I bought them for, etc.



I created a Photobucket slideshow instead of
uploading the pictures directly on my blog
because they're always rotated the wrong way
and it bugs me to death how my pictures look
very unorganized being that way.
Is this better? Let me know!

BY THE WAY...

This Hello Kitty sweater I wore in the video is from TARGET



UPCOMING GIVEAWAY UPDATE:

In my last video, in the description box, I mentioned
that I was going to be doing a giveaway in my next video.
But, I completely forgot about the giveaway because
I don't know what to do/give...yet.

Comment below on what you would like to win
whether it's a gift card, or makeup, you name it!
I'm at a loss for picking a prize or prizes.
Also, give me ideas on WHAT this giveaway should
be for or WHY I should even bother with one.

My first idea was to just do a giveaway for the heck of it.
The prize was going to be a full-blown $50 worth of
assorted makeup such as a foundation primer, foundation,
concealer, blush, bronzer, eye primer, eyeshadow quad, etc.!
I'm not such a fan of gift cards. The free shipping is great,
but a gift card has no meaning to it.
It's like I just dumped something onto someone!!!!

Somethings are for sure for the giveaway:
1) You must be a Youtube subscriber.
2) You must be a follower/subscriber of my blog.
3) ...hm...it'll probably have to be something creative

That's it for my haul and giveaway update.
Comment below if you have any questions!!!!

Thrift Store Haul

Puuurrrddddyyy!

My sister went thrifting today and happened to pick out some
AWESOME American Eagle shirts for me while I was at school.
Unfortunately, they were either small or unappealing on me!
BOO!

Regardless, the shirts are nice and in good condition
so that's why I'm assuming they costed more.
Each shirt was about $7+.
If you're interested in buying them I am selling them
on this Facebook app called Style.ly or something.

Here are the other pieces I got:

Thrift Store Haul


Today I went to my local Goodwill store and bought some amazing pieces! All for only $8?!
Most of the clothing items I bought were either on sale or clearance but they were still in great quality.
Now, I don't know about you guys but I love my Goodwill store.
I admit that sometimes the prices are high but if you look thoroughly you can find amazing deals!
This is actually my second trip to Goodwill. I didn't do a blog post or anything for the first trip simply
because I didn't have time to blog about it.
All the things I bought are listed below along with the price that I bought them for.

Abercrombie & Fitch Muscle Tee - $1.49


Maurices Gray Plaid Vest - $1.75

Maurices 3/4 Length Maroon Shirt - $1.49

GO(vest)                          GO(shirt)
These two are from the actual Maurices site. They look similar to the two Maurices' items that I bought so thought I would post them so y'all have an idea of how my pieces look. If you want to see more product info on them simply click the "GO" button and you'll be directed to the exact page on Maurices.com where the item(s) is located.
Here is the Old Navy Dolman Sweater from oldnavy.com that looks similar to the sweater that I bought for my sister. I bought it for $0.74 at Goodwill. If you want more product info on this sweater click the "GO" link under the image and you'll be directed to the product location.

Here is a look-alike of the muscle tee I bought from A&F. This is from the exact site abercrombie.com and if you click the "GO" button you'll be directed to the product location.

As for the white skull-patterened tee I don't know where it's sold at. I bought it for $1.49.

Did y'all recently go thrift store shopping? Comment below on the great deals you found! :)
