I just had to show you guys all the fun stuff that I got the other day I mentioned it HERE.
My mom and I have been watching a certain Roberts that was going out of business in Salt Lake City, UT. Last week the whole store was priced at 75% off which is a screaming deal but being the bargain hunters that we are we knew that they would go 90%! So my mom called them early Monday morning and they said yep we are going 90%, the whole store was 90% OFF!!! We went crazy!
Here is the stuff that I got!!
{Fun florals the daisies are actually plastic, I thought they were a modern twist to the fabric ones!}
{Jars and vases, the white one is actually covered in lace! I thought it was funky!}
{Candle warmers I can never have too many because I always find a way of breaking them! The one on the right retailed for $50! Which made it $5 for me!!}
{These are magnetic boards the large one is going in my kitchen and I am thinking it could use a coat of mustard yellow paint! The small on is staying in our TV room and I have a few things in mind for it!}
{A thick frame, magnetic calendar, and a mirror which will also probably get a coat of paint as soon as I decide where she is going! Oh ps the mirror was $5!!}
{Funky fun fruit, half went in my kitchen the other half is in a bowl in my TV room.}
{Tall wreath hanger which actually has the small magnetic board on it right now in my TV room, and the coolest frame easel display thingy!}
{Couldn't pass up this funky modern vinyl, and its huge!!}
{Another modern vinyl set, this will be going either in our TV room or kitchen.}
{A cuckoo clock vinyl which has to go in my kitchen somewhere!}
{This is probably my favorite piece I got from the sale, its bright and fun and perfect for my kitchen. It retailed for $169.99, which means I got it for $16.99, plus its HUGE!}
{I am not a big scrapbooker so I got these for the fun papers and embellishments that the kit came with, I sure can find something to do with them!}
My final cost was $83.00 and some change. Can you believe that for all this stuff!!!! I pretty much just re-decorated my whole main level in our town house apartment!
Do you want to score some deals like these?
Here are some tips:

Do you want to score some deals like these?
Here are some tips:
1. Be Patient: If you see something that you like in a store it will more than likely be reduced in price, it is a gamble but it could pay off and save you a ton of money!
2. Be Aware: Get to know what sales are going on each week at your favorite stores. I subscribe to the local newspaper to receive weekly ads, also check out blogs that post great deals, I love Hip 2 Save and Utah Deal Diva.
3. Be Consistent: Be sure to check back regularly on the items that you are watching to be clearanced out. The early bird snags the worm with those tips of deals!
