Sales? What sales?

Those of you who have been with me right from the start know my thoughts on sales. This year was another disappointment. But January isn't over yet. And most places seem to be slashing their prices even further. I however refuse to call them January sales - most started pre-Christmas after all. 

I went to Watford to try my luck and found so little, I'm not sure it was worth the trip. Although saying that, I was pleasantly surprised by the Watford Primark, finding things that I couldn't possibly have got online:

... I grabbed some reduced cards in Clintons ready for next year:

... and then spent a mere £3 on a mini satchel in River Island:
Is it a key ring? Is it a mini purse? Who knows!

This thriftiness is very unlike me. But then sales weren't all that this year. I had better luck online with the likes of Zara:


... and two pairs of Jeffrey Campbells that have YET to turn up on my door step. Impatient much? I'm still seeking out a reduced pair of Dr. Martens / Timberlands / both

Did you pick up any sales bargains?

    I've been having rubbish luck in the sales this year too, there just doesn't seem to be anything I can find. I am in love with that coat and the nail wraps are so pretty! I still need to get my head around them as I always get them on wrong x

      Thanks Rhiannon! Think I'm going to have a play around with nail wraps this weekend - it's meant to snow again so it'll give me something to do when I'm home in the warm :) x x

      Yep, Office! I didn't get Litas though - I got some flats that were normally £90 each - can you believe it! - so it was too good a discount to ignore! x x
