Here's the deal (pun intended) there are so many flash sales and daily discount websites out there it can be overwhelming. Trust me, I know. Here's an abbreviated list of some of the shopping emails I get daily:
daily candy deals
groupon
gilt
ideeli
zozi
lifebooker
fab
...just to name a few. *Wink! I rarely purchase anything, mainly because I always feel a little awkward handing in my coupon. But sometimes the savings can be irresistibly substantial.
$4 for a manicure?! Why, thank you! I shall!
$25 for a month of unlimited yoga?! Don't mind if I do!
A trick? I don't consider it a true bargain if it's any %-age less than 50% off. I think that's something my mom told me and I still believe it. Also, I file confirmation emails into folders; bills, library notices, dr. apts, travel, shopping (obvi), etc... That way, I don't have to wade through a bazillion emails to find what I'm looking for when it's time to redeem/track/check when my library books are due. I know. Earth-shattering. Brilliant. I should be on TV.
Bisous!
PS - the pic of the "overwhelmed shopper" above is from this charming Etsy Site where all the dolls are needle felted by hand. AH! The shopping possibilities are endless!

Junk Food for the Sentimental Soul
My friend, Jennifer, sent me a link to a great blog entitled, Moment Junkie. It features one, utterly touching-hilarious-charming-sassy-gasp/tear-inducing wedding photo each day. It's amazing. Really. I maaaay have already clicked through all 60+ pages. Ooops!
Beware though, in the words of Jessie, clicking is akin to falling down the "rabbit hole".
Bisous!
PS - Moment Junkie doesn't actually let you copy their photos (for obvious reasons). The above pics are from my favorite blog, Cup of Jo.
