I'm a big fan of online shopping. I mean big fan. I click, I look, I click again and in a few days, it's mine. And for the most part, I can send it back if it doesn't work. So why would I go shopping at the mall?
We'll honestly, it was totally as a challenge from the Grand Prairie Premium Outlets and considering this is mama challenge.com, I had to take it. That, and a reason to go shopping by myself without my children, is totally worth the opportunity to at least try to check out a nearby shopping center (like a stones throw away from home) that I never go to and see what it had to offer.
After I opened up the map, I realized this challenge might be fun. All my favorite shops, no kids and a little money to spend, I was ready to do something completely off the to-do list, go looking at handbags at Michael Kors. AHHH...
I was in love with them all and since I know the prices for MK bags like the back of my hand, I had found some great deals on handbags from this season. The green one caught my eye, but considering I was just starting, there was no reason I needed to blow my budget all in one spot...
Never one to ever pass up the holy trinity known as Gap, Banana Republic or Old Navy, I made b-line to the Banana Republic OUTLET (even better!)
Most of the styles that I saw looked just like the e-mail blast I was sent from BR that morning, so I was even more happy that the prices weren't. Notice the nautical theme on the table? So summer 2014 and at 50% I could get on trend at half the cost!
Of course, a little trip to Gap OUTLET was also on the must-do list! I only spent $82 and look at what all I got...but even more impressive, was my savings - $95.99! Woo-hoo! And I still had money left!
And the savings don't stop there! I highly suggest getting on the GPPO VIP Club and check out all the savings you can rack up like on the Promotions page, VIP coupon book and a whole lot of other amazing savings! Best of all, I was so satisfied by my few hours of shopping and great wins, that I had only hit up a few stores and hadn't even made it to my favorite kid shops like The Children's Place and more! Another shopping trip for me and way better deals than I could find online! I highly suggest you take a trip to Grand Prairie Premium Outlets (off 360 and 20) and check out the deals for yourself! All you have to lose is less money than shopping somewhere else!
