how I plan to save money this year + best winter sales!

how I plan to save money this year … something I’m trying to be mindful of are ‘sales’ and I know that’s odd because I like to share good deals with you. BUT I decided this is the year that I DO NOT get sucked in by the word ‘sale’. on occasion I’ve found some FABULOUS (seriously, downright feel like I stole it – because the deal was too dang good) deals but for the most part I feel like I get brought in by the word ‘sale’ to a bunch of ‘stuff’ that nobody wanted in the first place – and now here it was on a clearance rack.

now I don’t want you thinking I’m so ‘snooty’ and I won’t buy anything on sale, because I TOTALLY DO. and trust me, if I CAN get something on sale, then I will. for example, I went to Hobby Lobby everyday for 4 days once so I could use a 40% off coupon each of those days because I needed 4 succulents (and those never go on sale).

I’m just saying that I am being mindful of my shopping, and just because a store is offering a ‘sale’ doesn’t mean that I need to go searching for ‘something’ to buy.

I’m working on being more thoughtful when I am shopping and when I come across a sale. I’m making sure that whatever I’m buying is something that I’ll get a lot of use out of and ask myself if I’m able to wear it a few different ways, and if it’ll be a great addition to my wardrobe.  

so if you find yourself wandering the ‘sale’ sections don’t force yourself to walk away, sure take a peek – but ask yourself ‘do I REALLY need this?’ or ‘do I want it just because it’s a great price?’

I know a lot of us make resolutions to ‘save money’ or ‘spend less’ in the new year and I think if we really implement this strategy of not just buying because it’s ‘on sale’ will really help us achieve those goals!
