I was wandering the mall one weekend and found this really cute poke-a-dot dress at JCPenny’s. It's very retro and I loved the teal color and the ruching in the front skirt. It was $60. I tried it on and really liked it; but alas I did not need it so I put it back. As luck would have it, I was wandering the mall again. Something caught my eye. I turned and saw that dress hanging there in a different department. I went over to take a look and could not believe the price tag… $2!!! It was missing a button on the sleeve but it came with an extra that I could sew on. I went to the register to make sure this was right and it was! I couldn’t believe it. And at two dollars, I could pay cash and didn’t have to use a credit card (I’m trying to get rid of those). So I left the mall that day, a very happy camper.
So the lesson I learned here was some things are worth waiting for. If you find an item that you can’t live without or is hard to find, buy it (if you can afford it). If you don’t need it, come back later and if it’s still there (and hopefully at a discount) it was meant to be. Happy shopping my fashionistas! J
