They have sizes to fit just about anyone ~ from petite to women’s sizes and everything in between. Much of my wardrobe comes from this sale, and I can’t begin tell you how many people ask me where I shop ~ ladies, this is the place.

Stay tuned! We’ll pop over to the sale in a few days to give you a sneak preview and post some “Insiders Scoop” pics and info so that you’ll know what is in store before you go.

THIS WEEK — Sharon Young & Ladies Designer Brand Warehouse Clothing Sale, May 4-6

Posted on May 1, 2017 | 2 comments

As promised, we popped over to the Ladies Designer Brand Warehouse Sale to get our readers an exclusive sneak preview, as well as uncover some special bargains that you won’t want to miss. The sale starts this Thursday and runs for 3 days (May 4-6).

Here’s a little taste of some of our favorite finds:

The latest sale is packed front to back with gorgeous designer collections from top-end boutique and department store brands like Sharon Young, John Mark, Tru Luxe, Ali Miles, Slim-Sation, Multiples and more! You’ll have fun discovering row after row of fantastic spring and transition-to-summer fashion bargains.

:: You’ll find 1000s of fantastic tops, dresses, pants, jeans, and other key wardrobe elements at great prices, like this on-trend casual mesh top (above) that comes in several fun colors — perfect to give your wardrobe a bright pop of color. It’s also made in white if you need a “go with everything” top to carry you through the summer.

:: Be sure to check out our favorite casual lines from Ali Miles and Tru Luxe — we found a GREAT selection of jeans and tops! Pssst… Tru Luxe jeans and pants normally sale for at least $99 when you buy them at the department store, but they are ALL $40 at this sale! We also found many of the same Ali Miles tops offered online for full price at a major department store (Hot tip: Google “Ali Miles” and compare prices!).

:: SECRET SAUCE INSIDERS’ TIP: The sale will feature a special “Buy One Get One FREE” deal on Thursday and Friday (only)! This offer is on top of the already discounted prices, so be sure to ask about this deal to stretch your savings and wardrobe.

:: Isn’t this Ali Miles sleeveless top with hand-beaded collar gorgeous and perfect for summer? It is one of our favorite bargains, at only $20! It sells in department stores for $79 and is a perfect summer staple since it can be dressed up with straight leg pants or worn casually with your favorite jeans (click on the picture above to see a closeup).

:: We are in love with the rich fabrics and careful attention to quality we found throughout the John Mark and Sharon Young collections — you’ll see incredible bargains with most of these collections at least 60-70% off retail! These two lines are definitely a “Best Buy” at this sale — we found many of these same styles being sold at full price ($99 and up!), right now at a major department store.

:: Don’t miss the silky soft fabrics in the new weekend leisure and athletic lines from brands Sport Haley and Bette & Court — ideal for a day on the tennis court or just a walk around the neighborhood. We found rows of tops, shorts, pants, and more made with great looking performance fabrics ~ some even incorporate a UPF 30 sunblock protection.

In a nutshell, we found:

Bargains and bargains — Over 18,000 pieces of gorgeous ladies designer clothing & accessories, deeply discounted off retail! There is a huge selection that covers a wide variety of styles from trendy to traditional and from casual to dressy. These are gorgeous top quality collections carried in high-end department stores and fashion boutiques ~ you’ll find them at this designer warehouse sale at a big discount.
Ladies, Petite and Plus Sizes ~ something for everyone! Sizes range from Ladies & Petites sizes 2-18 and a stylish selection of Women’s Plus 0X-3X.

Shop to Support a Great Cause: Proceeds From The May Sale Benefit a Special Boy’s Upcoming Liver Transplant!

If you have ever shopped the Ladies Designer Brand Warehouse Sale, you have most likely met Kathy Rayford, the lovely and kind treasure who often runs the sale’s cash register area. What you may not know is that Kathy’s 14-year old grandson Kyle is on a waiting list for a liver transplant ~ regretfully, he has been diagnosed with an incurable liver disease called Primary Sclerosing Cholangitis (PSC) which has many progressive complications including liver failure (learn more about PSC here).

We are so happy to let you know that a portion of the May sales will go towards helping Kyle’s family defray the thousands of dollars in upcoming medical bills for his transplant procedure! Thank you so much for blessing their family and for your care and support.

GREAT DEAL For Coffee Conisseurs — $19.99 For Bodum Pour Over Coffee Maker & Permanent Filter

Posted on October 28, 2016 | Leave a comment

Amazon has a GREAT sale happening today on top rated (4.5/5 star user ratings) Bodum Pour-over coffeemaker with permanent filter for $19.99 (31% OFF MSRP).

Bodum made its name as making one of the best French press coffee makers, and they continue their reputation with this fantastic pour-over, slow brew design. We love everything about this little maker — from the beautiful sleek design to the ease of being able to put everything in the dishwasher, including the filter.

Secret sauce buyers’ tip: The coffeemaker comes in a lot of colors and 3 sizes, but not every color or size is on sale. Amazon inventory and prices change frequently, but at the time of this writing, the 34oz. black, red, and white versions were all marked down to $19.99.

Here’s what’s in the box:

Includes a permanent stainless steel mesh filter; no paper filters or capsules needed, and essential oils will not get trapped in the filter
Mouth-blown borosilicate glass container and silicone protective sleeve
Completely dishwasher safe
Bodum Model #11571-01

There are lots of great Bodum deals to be found with this sale, too. I hope you find just what you are looking for! : )

Enjoy and Share! :)

THROUGH MONDAY — 7″ Kindle Fire Bundle $79.99 — Save over $104 OFF a Kindle Tablet, Protective Cover, Extra 2 Year Warranty & More!

Posted on August 19, 2016 | Leave a comment

This Kindle bundle deal has been so popular with our readers when we mentioned it in the past, that when we discovered the bundle would be upgraded to the full-featured 7″ 16G Kindle Fire, we wanted to be sure to let our readers know! Note that Amazon is targeting this bundle towards back-to-school parents & their kids, but this is the full-featured 7″ Kindle Fire that — purchased by itself — normally retails for MORE at $84.99 (and by itself, you don’t get all the nice bundled freebies added into this deal). Here’s the full scoop…

LIMITED TIME — Amazon has their Kindle Fire for Kid’s Bundle at a DEEP discount — just $79.99 (a savings of over $104). The bundle includes 1.) a full featured 7″ 16GB Kindle Fire wi-fi tablet with camera ($84.99 regular price) 2.) an extended 2-year accident protection that protects against drops or spills (valued at $19.99), 3.) an ergonomic protective cover (valued at $19.99), and 4.) a 12-month subscription to AmazonFree time (valued at $59.88). This is the best deal available for the Kindle 7″ Fire!

“SECRET SAUCE” SAVINGS TIP: Don’t let the “Kid’s Bundle” title detour you ~ this is perfect for teens and adults too! Although Amazon describes this as a “kids bundle” (and yes, it is great for kids), it’s also an excellent value for adults & teens since the same full-featured tablet, when purchased by itself sells for $84.99 (learn more here). Even if you don’t use the cover, it’s still a better deal to buy this tablet in the bundle price.

Features included in the 7″ Kindle Fire Bundle:

* Includes the 7″ Kindle Fire 16GB touchscreen tablet ($99.99 retail), an ergonomic protective cover ($19.99), & a 2-year extended warranty ($19.99).

* There are over 72,000 reviews on this powerful reader tablet & most reviewers give it 5 stars.

* 2-year worry-free guarantee: if they break it, return it and Amazon will replace it for FREE. No questions asked.

* 16 GB of internal storage. Add a microSD card for up to 128 GB of additional storage.

* Unlimited, free access to 10,000 kid-friendly books, movies, TV shows, educational apps, and games with 1 year of Amazon FreeTime Unlimited included

* Best-in-class parental controls allow you to manage usage limits, content access, and educational goals

* Power up a young reader’s vocabulary with features that offer hints for difficult words and let you practice them on digital flashcards

* Set reading goals and track progress with Kindle FreeTime.

* Lighter than a paperback and holds thousands of books

* Easily checkout 1000s of FREE e-books and magazines from the Fort Worth public library, too.
