So last night I hit the fashion lotto. During Sunday's trip to the mall I tried on several peplum skirts and silk tops at Express and found pieces to create the most amazing outfit. Despite having made my selections I left the mall empty handed (okay maybe I just left Express empty handed hehe) because I am fashion omnipotent and knew that Express coupons would be arriving in the mail shortly. Therefore, it made no sense to pay full price on Sunday when I knew that sometime in the near future I could make the purchase for far less. As luck would have it I came home last night to a $40 coupon from Express!!! I immediately signed online and ordered the skirt in Aquarium blue, the blouse in solid black and for good measure I threw in another pair of skinnys. As I was about to check out, however, I noticed that my coupon was coming up invalid so I immediately dialed Express customer service for assistance. After briefly explaining the difficulty I was having in placing my order the customer service rep brought up my customer profile. Upon quick review of my order history she decided to adjust my discount from $40 to $50 off and waived shipping and handling for my troubles. In the end I got all three items for $99! Booyah....that's how it's done people.
I may be an insane shopaholic who buys something everyday of her life, but I know how to work the system and stretch a dollar. Oh and while I was at the mall on Sunday I also scored a navy three quarter length wool coat and a silver necklace to go with my peplum outfit for 50% off at Banana. I may not have won the actual lotto, but I'm pretty sure that the thrill I got last night was comparable to winning millions!
