My birthday, you may recall, was in February. And at that time I acquired, between my mom & step-dad and my parents in law, £200. Of which I had, until today, spent £12. And that was just last month.
You see, I’m a cheapskate. I hate paying full price for *anything*.
The problem with that being finding things I like in my size when the sales happen.
Last month I found a pink and grey stripped tunic top/dress at Dorothy Perkins (can’t find it on their website), originally £40. I got it for £12.
And then today I was at the mall and wandered into Debenhams. And found three pairs of jeans.
These, which I got for £12.50, down from £25
These, which I got for £9, down from £30
And these which I got for *free* as they were on the buy one get one rack with the ones above.

I think, based on the website, that the red ones were on the wrong rack and I shouldn’t have gotten them for free. Although, as I remember, they were marked at £9 like the brown ones above them.
Anyway, big bargains. I was very pleased.
I’ve also been looking for a new purse, so I went into Cath Kidston. I do like their purses but none of them were quite right. I did, however find this very useful ticket holder to keep my bus ticket in along with some other cards.
So a very successful day’s shopping, indeed!
