Yesterday I got an email from the company that I buy most of my clothes from. The online outlet was having a clearance sale.
Stuff in the outlet is already 50 to 75% off, and they were offering 40% off the outlet price.
Wow! That means a top that normally sells for $70 is now something like $12. That's cheaper than Wal-Mart!
Naturally, I jumped. When they run sales like that, things go fast, especially in my size. I bought 3 jackets, 2 pairs of pants, 2 knit tops, a turtleneck, and a dress for a total of $110 plus shipping, in the smaller size I'm wearing now.
As I hit the "checkout" key, I thought to myself, "Just watch. I'll get a coupon tomorrow."
Sure enough, in today's mail I got a coupon for $30 off my next purchase over $100. And it has to be used by May 19.
I could spit.
But if I had waited until today to order, they'd have been out of my size in the things I liked.
