Thrifty Finds

Unfortunately this post is not about thrifting per se, spelunking in huge boxes of vintage goodies, no it is about finds that are thrifty.

At the beginning of the month I went to Holt & Renfrew (the chichi store that sold the $120.00 cookies).

I found loose leaf teas from England in cute tins for a lovely price!

Now I drink a lot of tea during the day and I know loose leaf is always pretty expensive.

Lucky I found 2 of my faves...

Darjeeling and Earl Grey

 

$5 each instead of $12.

 

SWEET!

Well it's late and I must run the flat iron in my hair...exciting

Deals!

I love the after Xmas sales, even if I don't buy a lot...

So I headed to Holt & Renfrew (home of the crazy expensive cookies) to see what they had to offer.

Hum, 20% on top of 40% off? Count me in; if the price is right of course!

 

Well I bought some Daarjeling tea for 5$ instead of 14$

and some other items that will remain secret for the time being!

 

I did see the big glass jar of cookies that was around 50$ instead of 120$, which is a good deal but like my co-worker Debbie says: it is a lot of money for cookies!

 

I also saw this...

 

 

A lovely baby sweater...

 

 

 

72$ for a baby's sweater? Really?

 

FREAKY!

 

This is just a glimpse of the rich people universe.

This is the kind of sweater that Kim Kardashian would buy for her baby.

I'm just saying.

 

CRAZY!
