chocolate laced

aphrickanqueen:

I’m about to do some homework but I wanted to share today’s purchase with you. I might dedicate my next Chocolate Laced blog post to it.

As many of you know, I work at H&M. If you didn’t know, now you do. H&M can be seen as expensive, but I admire the serious price cuts that they make when items go on sale AND when I apply my employee discount to my purchase. Another plus: I’m small enough to shop in the kids department. Go me. 

Here’s what I bought:
Kids/Girl’s items marked with a (G) 

Gray Leggings (G): Orig: $7.95, Sale: $3
Crushed Black Velvet Leggings (G): Orig: $9.95, Sale: $5
Black Tailored Wool Shorts: Orig: $24.95, Sale: $5
Plum Skinny Leg Pants: Orig: $12.95, Sale: $5 
Shiny Black Cropped Pants: Orig: $34.95, Sale: $5
Gray Skinny Jeans (G): Orig: $19.95, Sale: $5
Rusty Brown Leather Trouser Leggings: Orig: $24.95, Sale: $10
Denim Full Skirt (G): Orig: $17.95, Sale: $3
Creamy Chiffon Blouse w/ Gold Buttons: Orig: $9.95 

Bringing my grand total to be $50.95…without my discount or tax. Right there alone, I saved $112.60. With my discount and tax included, my total turned out to be $39.74. I felt like an extreme couponer. 

Who says you have to spend a fortune to get nice things? Not this lady!
