I had no kids with me so I actually got to browse- it was like a mini vacation. I really like the sweatpants I bought, and these ones actually fit me unlike the last pair which means I don't have to try and squeeze my pregnant butt into them.

I used my $20 Groupon, which I got for free because I had a $10 credit in my account, and ended up getting some cute stuff for my daughter. I would officially have to say she has enough summer clothes, that is until I see more super cute stuff on sale! (dressing my daughter in cute clothes is a huge weakness for me- luckily the Gap and Old Navy are always emailing me coupons which combined with my Silver card's free shipping equals me not going bankrupt).

Good Bye Closet, Hello Trash Bags!

My husband was recently promoted at work and needed some new snazzy work cloths. I had a 30% Gap Give and Get coupon so I headed out (family free) to the outlet mall to pick him up some stuff and to see if there were any good deals on clothes for the kids.

I got my husband some jeans, really nice work pants and nice button up work shirts at the Gap and Banana Republic outlets and I even treated myself to a new pair of jeans and some shirts. The Gap Kids outlet didn't have too much that was at an acceptable price for me but I did get my son some shirts and a pair of pants to put away for next year. I love the Banana Republic outlet and rarely go because taking kids to the outlets is not fun- the stores are not very baby carriage friendly because they put the clothing racks so darn close together.

When I got home and my husband went through what I bought him he went through all of his clothes and donated a trash bag full of stuff that didn't fit him anymore or that he didn't like. I was inspired and went through my clothes also. I totally outdid him and came up with two trash bags full of clothes that I no longer liked. All I have to say is that whoever gets our clothes will be very pleased considering most are name brand and in excellent condition.

I suppose most people would feel wasteful having so much that was sitting around and not being used but I don't. Those two trash bags were things I at one time liked and now I don't like them. My taste changes and I am not going to hold onto stuff because I feel bad getting rid of it. Plus, it feels so good to get rid of things. My drawers are free of clutter and now I can work on filling them back up again (that was a joke- kind of).
