I don't really tend to shop "sales" for the sake of it, but when I catch *my* item on sale, I'm pretty happy! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/do-you-love-a-bargain#post-873713 Sun, 10 Mar 2013 22:23:20 +0000 Karie 873713@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I do like a good bargain, but I also don't mind paying a fair price for a product. As far as sales go, I always wonder why it's on sale in the first place. Does no one else want it? Is there some flaw in fit or construction that is causing others to put it back? I also wonder if the price has been marked up and I am being played as a fool. Sometimes I'll go into some stores that always have "sales," and look at the "original price," and I'll think, "I would never pay that for this cheaply made garment." </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/do-you-love-a-bargain#post-873680 Sun, 10 Mar 2013 21:38:06 +0000 Astrid 873680@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I do love a bargain and also have a small budget, but I really have to take care not buy something just because it's on sale or affordable. I've bought a few wardrobe orphans that way. Better to invest more in one piece and really get a lot of use out of it. Of course some of my wardrobe workhorses were bargains and I love them! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/do-you-love-a-bargain#post-873677 Sun, 10 Mar 2013 21:35:27 +0000 lyn* 873677@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I used to be; but I'm not so much anymore ... I like my things a certain way and I'm not willing to sacrifice to get something second rate.</p> <p>That being said, if I miss out on something that suddenly comes back in stock and it's on clearance - SCORE! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/do-you-love-a-bargain#post-873676 Sun, 10 Mar 2013 21:32:02 +0000 Caro in Oz 873676@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm with Angie on this one. A lot of the things I want don't last till sale time. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/do-you-love-a-bargain#post-873495 Sun, 10 Mar 2013 17:49:27 +0000 Thistle 873495@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>To make sure it is really a bargain, I have been using wish lists. I put things on wishlists, and as my budget permits, I try things off the list.</p> <p>I am trying really hard not to buy things simply because they ar on sale. Items on the wishlists gt priority if they go on sale as they probably won't be around long! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/do-you-love-a-bargain#post-873489 Sun, 10 Mar 2013 17:40:47 +0000 siniestra 873489@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>i'm all about bargain ..but before i was a mess i bought things that didn't compliment my body image or bought it because was cheap....now i tent to go to sales or thrift stores full of beautiful things but...don't fit me so i end up with one or two pieces...but that al right little by little i am building my wardarobe and sure is full of bargains ...must are for fun...and a very few ones that are expensive...Like others say bargain are something u bought at a great price but u use it a lot and love it </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/do-you-love-a-bargain#post-873487 Sun, 10 Mar 2013 17:37:48 +0000 ironkurtin 873487@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Angie is the only person I know who doesn't love a bargain! For me it's a combination of right product at an achievable price. When I can have something I love, and still eat, I am happy. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/do-you-love-a-bargain#post-873481 Sun, 10 Mar 2013 17:30:34 +0000 Ingunn 873481@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love a bargain if it is something I really need or want. Like when my new specs, which were quite pricey, went on sale 50% off the very same day I went to the mall to order them. At other times, I'm very happy to pay full price as long as I get exactly what I'm after. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/do-you-love-a-bargain#post-873451 Sun, 10 Mar 2013 16:44:24 +0000 Greek Goddess 873451@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Perhaps it gives me more freedom that I am not interested in brands and labels at all. I have access to wonderful Italian shoes and clothes that often have the true label removed before they appear in our cut price shops in Greece. The true quality shines from them... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/do-you-love-a-bargain#post-873422 Sun, 10 Mar 2013 16:16:18 +0000 Angie 873422@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Can't say that a bargain puts me on a high at all. I am too product-driven for that. The right product puts me on a high! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/do-you-love-a-bargain#post-873359 Sun, 10 Mar 2013 15:43:35 +0000 Anonymous 873359@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I really look for what I call "good value". Often this means buying something used that's in good shape for a fraction of what it's original cost would have been. I can't do that with everything, but when I find a gem like that it's a bargain! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/do-you-love-a-bargain#post-873339 Sun, 10 Mar 2013 15:30:43 +0000 Greek Goddess 873339@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I often go to the shops to look and walk out with absolutely nothing. I like my clothes to 'pay their way' in other words, to be worn a lot and appreciated if I have bought them. Most clothes I get rid of look worn or no longer fit me or no longer fit my image. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/do-you-love-a-bargain#post-873328 Sun, 10 Mar 2013 15:19:57 +0000 Kristin L 873328@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love a great bargain. I've been working hard to remember that if it doesn't fit a need, then it's still not a bargain because I won't use it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/do-you-love-a-bargain#post-873320 Sun, 10 Mar 2013 15:15:11 +0000 Kalli 873320@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love a bargain as long as it fulfills something I need else it is a waste . </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/do-you-love-a-bargain#post-873308 Sun, 10 Mar 2013 15:06:34 +0000 Greek Goddess 873308@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I absolutely love a bargain, but only buy if it ticks all the boxes at the moment....like making me happy, being something I really need or being an item I cannot live without a moment longer.</p> <p>I suppose it depends what you consider a bargain, but in my case I mean something of reasonable quality that I will get a lot of wear out of , which is a good price. It doesn't matter if its from the catalogue clearance shop, from the charity shop or from a local clothing shop.</p> <p>NOthing makes my heart sing more than finding something I have been looking for in the shops and knowing I can afford it and will get lots of use out of it. I only have a very small budget for clothes, maybe 400 euros for the year.</p> <p>How about you? </p>
