My Newest Bargain: Puma Shoes

I don't know about you, but I love a bargain. I love feeling like I found a treasure; something that someone else couldn't use anymore, but the item still has a lot of life in it. I guess I prefer previously owned bargains to new bargains. For some reason buying used items feels like more of a bargain. Plus, I love the concept of re-using, re-purposing and reducing my environmental footprint. I love thrift shopping, going to the Good Will store or Value Village. I actually purchase most of my children's clothes from baby consignment stores, garage sales or they are passed down from friends children. This week’s bargain was found at a neighbor’s yard sale. They are perfect. The green pair doesn't even appear to have been worn more than once and the gray pair has only been worn a few times as the most. I am so excited. I have wanted some new shoes that are a little bit sporty, but could be worn with jeans and what not for a while. I am one happy mama. These were a great bargain at $2.00 a pair. Do you enjoy bargains? What kind of bargains have you found lately? Where do you find the best bargains?

Those shoes are too cute! I never have any luck finding second hand shoes because my feet are so big *L* I LOVE finding old craft supplies though, it's like finding golden treasures for me =)
