nothing like a clearance...

i admit it. i am a slut for a clearance sale - anywhere. worse than a blue-light special bimbo, i lurk the aisles of department stores...seeking out the best deals on products that no one wants.

ooh. fish oil capsules...$0.70. what health benefits do they possess? hell if i know, but $0.70 is way cheaper than a sugar bomb soft drink at the drive thru.

lately, i've been scouring the clearances at Target. September is a good time to find shorts and t-shirts for up to 75% off on their racks. got three pairs of shorts and a meadow green t-shirt for $11.50. yeah, i know that thrift stores are cheaper, but sometimes it's nice to know that you're getting a new product. i still have yet to figure out how ARC and Goodwill even have the nerve to sell used undergarments. HELL NO! even more baffling...people who actually buy them. yikes.

i think i did miss one good sale though. i've been looking for a new pair of water socks to replace my super worn out pair that lasted me two seasons of outdoor v-ball. didn't use these until the drought hit the parks last year. i always played barefoot, but could no longer due to the harsh ground conditions. hopefully, things will be better next year and i can go back to shoeless spencer. meanwhile, i'll be on the lookout for some water socks - somewhere.
