Temptation Weekend
O, tukso, layuan mo ako!
It’s a little too late for me to be saying that now. I’ve already given in. *sigh* What can I do, Tax-Free Weekend, only comes around once a year! Hee hee! Yes, shopping is THE temptation I was referring to. What else is there? Did you think otherwise? And as if tax free shopping isn’t enough of a temptation, stores are having sales at the same. My favorite department store, Macy’s, for instance, is holding a One Day Sale tomorrow, and a preview day today, with extended store hours from 8am to 12mn. Not only that, they have this thing called “Morning Specials” where there are super duper extra discounts from 8am-1pm! Argh! Well, “Weee!” is more like it, at least for me, and “Uh-oh!” and ”Woe!” for Hubby.
You could probably already guess where I was between 9am and 11:30am today. It’s very rarely that I go anywhere by myself. Aahhh, the wonders that shopping can do. It’s so, uhm, empowering! Hee hee. I would have shopped longer had not my school drop-off and pick-up duties gotten in the way. But no worries, we’ll be hitting the mall again in a few minutes and then there’s still tomorrow. ;) Kawawa naman ang asawa’t anak ko kung di sila makakabili. Hahaha!
I’m very pleased with my morning loots. I got an 8-piece Bed-in-a-Bag at 60% off and a set of down comforter and pillows for Hubby and me. See? It’s not all for me! Hubby has something to gain in all this, too! ;) I had to leave the Bed and Bath department right away or else, I would have gone home with 3 new sets of beddings. Hee hee.
And for myself, I bought 12 items of clothing for only $60.00! Nice, ei? You’d think I shopped at the kids’ department of Target again. Not that I do that all the time. :P The exciting thing is that out of the 12 articles, 4 are designer bottoms, which I got for less than $10! *takes a bow*
Oops, I’d tell you more about my shopping spree. But Hubby’s work hours are finally over. Time to hit the mall!
Have a great weekend! I already had a very good start plus, Abby will turn 4 on Sunday! :) We have a packed and exciting weekend ahead of us. Cheers!
