Birthday Shopping (Thank you!)

Since I had gotten a gift card from Josh's family to the mall for my birthday (thanks Bob, Merry, & Ann!), I decided to do some shopping yesterday and today. I was pretty excited about my clothing finds since I will need dress clothes for school. My sister and I went yesterday and I found 2 pairs of dress pants at JC Penney. They were marked down to $10 and then 20% off that. $8 each! Also, I found a nice brown purse originally $42 and with the mark downs it ended up being $16. Next, we went to the Limited (a store I always want to shop at but usually don't because it's a little pricey). However, they actually had a large section of clearance. I found a nice pair of khaki pants that fit me really well but were still marked $25 (over my price range). I thought I would ask them to check the price (you never know!) just in case. They were still $25 but the cashier said she'd let me in a secret that all of their clearance would be an additional 50% the next day. Woo hoo! So I put them on hold. Today Josh and I went back to get them and I ended up finding three nice shirts for $5 and a suit jacket (originally $168!!) for $15. And I still have money left!
