Motherload...

Motherload as defined on the web dictionary as a slang word for: A very large amount of something valuable. The value is in finding deals...
What did one pay for this cute shirt,
4 pairs of zip up pajamas, (necessity for quick night time changes)
3 onsies and 2 pair of matching pants,
3 long sleeve onsies, 2 more pairs of pants and 3 bibs, (got this set in newborn size from Mary Lensing-loved it, so I decided to buy more for 3-6 month size)
5 piece set: onsie, blanket, pants,bib, pajamas.
Snow suit
4 full outfits. Perfect for church!
If I had paid full price I would have paid: $190.87, almost $200.00 worth of stuff. So the question is...how much did I pay?
The answer is...$49.80

If you put the amount you saved, into your savings account, then I would agree you saved some money.... :) I know, I'm ruining your shopping day....LOL

Um, Clint is "financial planner" now? Clint don't encourage my wife to pay full price... :)

It had to have cost at least $75.00 even on clearance.
Those are delightful finds. Congrats. I love shopping the sales too.
