Did anyone get good after-Christmas deals?

I didn't do much post-holiday shopping this year, but I did pick up some workout pants at Macy's today for about $12 each.  They actually fit so I was pretty psyched; at 5'1" it's nearly impossible to find pants that aren't about a mile too long.

Re: Did anyone get good after-Christmas deals?

  • I ordered three shirts, a sweatshirt, and a pair of cords from ON all for about $55 with shipping. I was pretty happy with that! I'm big on online shopping though, I'm guess I could have found better deals in stores, but it's really hard to find good maternity stuff in stores, especially at ON. Most of their stuff is online.

  • I did some shopping two days just prior to Christmas and got some amazing deals.  I got three sweaters from Gap for under $50!

    This is completely random but I thought you were taller for some reason.  I know that's completely strange and random.  I wonder if any other nesties look the way I picture them, or if I look the way any others picture me? 

    (end random tangent...) 

     Now something a bit more relevant... We scored some pretty good deals on ornaments, decorations, etc and we bought a TV for the bedroom, its a 26 in. LCD Toshiba TV/DVD combo, and it only cost us $200, it retails for about $50.

    Haha, I wish!  On my other local board we've learned that we assume a lot of things about our fellow Nesties for some reason, isn't that funny?

    Maybe now would be a good time to tell you that I'm also Chinese if you haven't picked it up from previous posts, which sort of explains the 5'1" as well :)

    I think I knew you were Chinese, I think it was the Volleyball that made me think you were tall.  All of my friends who played in high school/college were pretty tall, maybe that's where the assumption came from!

    Aaah, I see how that could be confusing!  You'd be amazed at how many really good volleyball players there are who are under 5'6".  A couple of guys with the highest verticals I've seen are about 5'6" and 5'9", respectively.  Crazy!  None of us could play professionally, of course, but we hold our own ;)

  • We went to go return something to Burlington Coat Factory (which is really scary BTW- they aren't nearly that grimy in NY or FL! haha) and just picked up a few decorations and gift boxes for next year because they were 75% off. We made the mistake of going to the mall to try to return something also and it was an absolute disaster so we didn't want to stay there long!
