Confessions of a Bargain-holic

I have to confess ... I love a good bargain. And today, I was in bargain heaven! I got a flyer in the mail a few days ago advertising a huge pre-4th of July Sale at Kohl's Department Store. What caught my eye was a Black & Decker 6-slice oven toaster going on sale for $39.99. My mom has told me that they need a new oven toaster and that I should keep my eye open for a good deal. The Kohl's price was an extremely good deal since the same toaster was selling for $99.99 before the sale started. The sale starts today so this morning I called our local Kohl's and found out they only had 4 toasters to sell. I dragged my sister to Kohls as soon as we finished lunch.

While at Kohl's, I couldn't resist. Not only did I get the toaster, I also got a few other items that were on sale too. New pillows for Jojo and myself, a turquoise Elle blouse, and Buy-ology environmentally friendly bags (the kinds that are great for traveling cause when folded they can fit in your purse but when opened up they are the size of a regular tote).


Today's shopping spree: (2 of the 4 Queen pillows, my Elle blouse, the Buy-ology bag (see how it opens up?), and the Black & Decker toaster that is now packed in a balikbayan box on its way to Manila!)

Original Prices:
Toaster - $99.00
Pillows - $9.99 each (I got 4)
Elle blouse - $36.00
Buy-ology Bags - $1.99 each (I got 2)
My total should have been: $179.93

THEN on Sale the prices dropped to:
Toaster - $39.99
Pillows - $3.49 each
Elle blouse - $18.00
Buy-ology Bags - $1.69 each
So my total (before tax) was $75.33

THEN I whipped out my Kohl's card and find out that all Kohls members get an additional 15% discount. My total goes down to $64.03.

THEN the clerk tells me they have a special promo today. For every $50.00 I spend, I get a coupon for $10.00 to use on my next purchase.

Is this a great bargain or what??? I love it!
