Favorite Find Friday......

I am so thrilled about today's post I could hardly wait.  This past weekend my hubby and I did some thrifting.  Normally, I don't weed through the clothes only because for him it can be quite boring and I really enjoy spending time with him so I didn't want to ruin it.  But as we browsed I stumbled on 3 items that kind of just stuck out and he liked them, so I tried them on and then hemmed and hawed over spending $12 on these sweet pieces.  (Cheap skate, I know)  Anyways, that was until I saw a sign that said 50% off entire store.  WHAT, 50%!!!  Could it be?   Yes it was true.  So now my hubby was off to his section to see if he could find a few things for himself.  I'm sure you can guess what I started to do......shop, shop, shop.  It was a grand day and can't wait any longer to share my favorite find for this week and the fab. prices I paid.
Markon boots (never heard of the brand myself, but love the style)
$5.99 on sale for $3!
Ann Taylor Loft orange sweater
$3.99 on sale for $2!
Banana Republic white tailored button top
$3 on sale for $1.50!
The belt is old and the jeans I got for Christmas.
Kohls on sale for $19.99. (not a great deal, but jeans can be tricky for me)
That is a grand total of....$26.50 for a new outfit.
Here I am, pleased with my bargains. 
Not only am I excited for me, but the little money I spent that day goes to a good cause!
Thank you, Bethesda Thrift store in Appleton and Five Days...Five Ways blog for the inspiration.
