Sometimes All You Have To Do Is Ask




I just got home from a very successful shopping trip at Famous Footwear!  Some of you may recall the post I did right before Easter about the 15% off coupon and the B1G1 50% sale.  The coupon is expired, but I printed it out anyway.

I asked the manager at my local Famous Footwear store if he'd accept it and he said yes!  SCORE!  I ran straight to the clearance section and grabbed a pair of shoes for each of my four younger children.  I bought:

1. Guess tennies for Caitlin - original price: $59.99
2. Buster Brown sandals for Brendan - original price: $34.99
3. Skechers twinkle toes for Taylor - original price: $39.99
4. Converse high tps for Matthew - original price: $34.99

Total original price - $169.96 + tax (12.32) = 182.28
My price - $55.70 WITH tax for ALL 4 PAIRS!

I had to order Matthew's Converse tennies to be delivered, but they offer free delivery (I paid for them along with the others)!  I saved a whopping $126.58 by buying from the clearance section, using a coupon, AND using the B1G1 50% off sale!  Ha!

Plus I earn rewards points for this purchase too!

See, sometimes all you have to do is ask (nicely of course!)!

  5. Thank you! I just love getting deals like these...saving money is my game!

    I didn't know Chick Fil A honored expired coupons - thank you! I bought the cow calendar at Christmas and have yet to redeem any coupons.

    I'll shop with any of you - just tell me when and where - I LOVE to shop! LOL

    My weekend was great (I went out of town to shop), and it always makes my day when I can shop like this. I really have to pinch pennies with all these kiddos!
