todays the day to start...

thinking about how you can live the lifestyle you want on the budget you can truly afford.

I started thinking about this a few years back while living in atlanta and seeing so many people driving their BMW's and wearing their Seven jeans all while living in their mom's basement. I was alway amazed at the want to have outward status symbols rather than peace of mind or a home to call their own. Can people truly tell the difference between a pair of Old Navy Jeans and a pair of Citizens of Humanity? I doubt it. But there is a major difference and thats about $100.

As I travel around day to day I have seen soo many great deals out there, as retailers make deep discounts to get out from under the mounting inventory they have. Take today for instance. I was in my local Target and saw 75% off in the men's and women's departments. I purchased a mens suit jacket for $14.98 and suit pants for $6.24. Thats such a great deal and well needed as we head into wedding season.

Also spotted, an additional 50% off Old Navy Clearance! I picked up a great spring sweater for $5 and some long sleeved tees for just $2.50 each.

Here's a Tip: Look for your best clearance values on the inside end caps in your big box stores. Keep your eye out and look for these great deals, they are out there!
