Remember this post?
Then, remember when I decided to be frugal and mature and returned the loot I'd purchased?
Well, my lovelies, there's a silver lining (or, perhaps a pleather one?) to share...
Club Monaco online is not known for sending a whack of promo code discounts. Sure, the site has sales, but it's no Banana Republic. Well, today I was on the online site - they're have 30 per cent off cashmere till tomorrow - and I signed up for the newsletter (I'm already on the newsletter but I figured it wouldn't hurt to reapply since it came with a 15% discount code.)
Then, on a whim, I decided to see if they had the pleather leggings I'd bought and returned. They're a continuity item, which was in stock in my preferred colourway (black on black) in my size. 15% off the price I'd paid first time seemed adequately motivating. I've thought of those leggings many times since I returned them.
Somehow, and I swear I wasn't looking, I came across the paisley sweater I'd also returned. It was there - on sale for 30 per cent off?! before the 15% discount?! OMG people. Can you say click, click? I repurchased the exact same loot, only this time I saved 85 bucks. And the shipping is free.
I can't tell you what a thrill this is. 5 minutes of shopping. Savings. Items I love (that should fit, unless this stock is of a different batch that is radically differently sized). It's a beautiful shopping tale.
You've got to admit, that's awesome.

Nice shopping, how could one resist such a bargain? I've just bought a winter coat online and am hoping I like it as it was a bargain and will be warm and practical. Wasn't intending to spend any money but sometimes the stars just align that way, don't they?
ReplyDeleteI know! Sometimes the deal just hands itself to you.
DeleteI am not a shopper at all and I love this tale. LOL
ReplyDeleteI think it's even more fun for a non-shopper cuz it's shopping by proxy :-)
DeleteIt's awesome! Patience rewarded, bread upon the waters and all that. Good score!
ReplyDeleteAlas, it's probably just dumb luck - but I'll take it :-)
DeleteFabulous and well-deserved! I was so impressed when you returned those, and now your discipline is being rewarded. Yay!
ReplyDeleteWhy thank you. I'm not known for my returns :-) but I cannot possibly justify clothing in my wardrobe when there are better ways to spend the money. I have enough for 3 people. Mind you, when the deal pops up, it's like the shopping goddess is waving a wand!
DeleteI've mourned clothes that I returned out of guilt. MOURNED!!
ReplyDeleteYou know, so have I! There's a vintage dress in Santa Barbara I SO should have got in 1988. I think about that way too often.
DeleteLOVE when that happens. Guess it had to be this way around to really appreciate it but darn don't you wish it'd just come on sale in the first place and you'd been wearing it all along. The reward for sending them back perhaps ? ? ? Enjoy
ReplyDeleteI really do appreciate them now! More than ever! And it's not like I've gone unclothed in the last 3 months :-)
DeleteYay! Happiness will ensue when your package arrives :).
ReplyDeleteBelieve it or not - I returned the leggings yet again! (Story to follow.) But replaced them with another pair in store.
DeleteHurruh for the blessings of the shopping gods.
ReplyDeleteI know. If only they could get together with the Visa gods for some sort of work-around :-)
