First of all, my boyfriend had previously spend $150 each on two pairs of Guess jeans. Yeah, I know, he's crazy! However, he has been working out a lot and now those jeans are getting a little tight for him. Quite conveniently, he received a Guess Gift Certificate for Christmas and so he wanted to buy himself some new jeans with that. Now, I offered to go with him as I just seem to have good luck when it comes to finding great deals and prices. People are always asking me to go shopping with them as I just seem to "attract great prices" as they say - ha!
Now, I didn't quite know how good of a deal we'd end up getting if these jeans were orginally $150+ but I had the idea of going to a Guess outlet store instead as they always have great prices and he didn't need the trendiest jeans but just basic ones. So, we ended driving quite a bit to find one, but it was definitely worth it!
I was expecting the jeans to be around $100 - but hopefully under! They had a lot of selection at the outlet so we had fun sorting through them and picking which ones he should try on and they were all around $70-100 - I wasn't impressed but it was still better than $150!
The first few pairs looked awful and I could tell my boyfriend was getting discouraged and didn't even want to try anymore. So, I grabbed his previously bought Guess jeans and read the size and fit and it was no wonder they were all looking awful - he was not only trying on the wrong size but the wrong fit! I went out and tried to look for his fit - which is the relaxed fit and not the slim fit as he was trying on - he is much too built to be trying on the slim fit! I couldn't find any so I asked the employee to help and she brought me the only 2 pairs they had in his size & fit. He tried them on and they both fit him really well - not only did they look good on but he was comfortable in them! I could tell that he was feeling much better knowing it wasn't him who didn't fit well in jeans, but that he just had to find his right fit and these two certainly fit him well!
I offered to pay for one of the pairs since I really liked one of them myself but when we went to go pay for them, it turned out that they were both on sale for $30 each!!! Neither of us believed it when the cashier said $65 for both the jeans after taxes! And since my boyfriend had a $60 gift certificate, he just needed to pay the $5 tax and I didn't need to buy him a pair at all!  | ||

Instead I bought lunch for the both of us at Hero Burger - he got the original 100% Angus Beef Hero Burger and I got a Cranberry Onion Turkey Fiesta which was delicious!!

Now, just as we were about to head back home, I saw a Sally Beauty Supply Store and froze! We had to go in! I thought they only had those stores in the US. They had so much great stuff and if I could I would have gotten it all, but I held back and only ended up getting this:
The first one with the yellow top is called "Yellow Stopper" which prevents your nails from yellowing with UV Protection and can be used as a base coat. The second one with the black top is called "Beauty Secrets Top Coat" which is self-explanatory. I just love how they are both 2.5 Fl.Oz.!! Most of my nail polishes are 0.5 Fl.Oz. and cost the same as each one of these! These will both last me a long time as they are so big but it is so worth it because I always use a base and top coat whenever I paint my nails and I was just running low on my Relvon one which is so much smaller and cost the same as these two huge ones! Then there is also the hair comb in the middle with the metal stick which I just needed and it was also a great price!
I did also get a points card for $5 which gave me discounts on each product and it ended up paying for itself as it came with a $5 coupon off anything on my next visit! At first I didn't know if it was worth it but then the cashier told me that there was another location that was much closer to me that this one, so I got it! I'll post another blog of what I get when I go to the other location!
All in all, today was a great day! I still can't get over that we managed to get two pairs of Guess jeans for $30 each! Damn, I am good! :)
