S-A-T-U-R-D-A-Y Shopping Day...

Sorry for the late post, but today and yesterday were just crazy!

 My wonderful mother decided this was the weekend to take my brother and I down to the city of Sun and get new clothes and gear for this new school year.

 

My brother is a Freshie... and me a Senior! Time goes by so fast y’know.

  

I even got a new toy to show you some of my adventures for my final year of High school year. 

 New Chess season, new adventures, new lessons, new crafts to be made. OH and of course more Baby Puppy stories featuring our Little Boy Ame!

Some tips though for school shopping if you haven’t gone yet:

 1st: ALWAYS take the spot that is somewhat close to the store and opened up just for you. Don’t try and find another spot closer because chances are you’re going to have to walk… (Sorry Mom)

2nd: Clearance is always a good thing in stores! I can’t tell you boys and girls what a “magical” thing the clearance section is.

3rd: If you don’t think you’ll ever wear it more than once... DON’T get it. It’s a waste of money to get something you're on the fence about.

4th: Be calm and don’t worry about what you can’t get because most of the time you won’t need it.

5th: Have fun! Take friends, family, go have lunch or dinner, dance, be silly, and just have fun with it! Shopping can be entertaining if you let it be. My Mom was discussing shopping clearance undies at Victoria's Secrets for my brothers. Yep, they both choked on their drinks. Good silly fun!

6th: Make sure you have enough money. So far the median spent for school shopping is $500. Ya, I know crazy huh?

7th: Take plenty of breaks. Taking a trip to your parked car and dropping off all those shopping bags is a great suggestion.

8th: Stash up on coupons. That free lipstick isn’t yours without that coupon.

9th: Try some new stores. One store could be selling something you want for cheaper than that other store.

And finally 10th: DO NOT drive your parents crazy! They work hard for the money to buy you stuff. If you’re footing the bill... good for you but STILL give them a break.

Whelp that’s all for this Saturday! I wish you happy shopping sprees and a happy new school year. Make it a great one!
