I am sticking to a strict budget, and color palette. The colors of the items in this years sale are mostly not in my palette which makes it easy to skip over them. I stuck to practical replacement of some basics. Running sneakers, sports bras, my favorite undies and my favorite perfume.

I had hoped to purchase some Aasics Nimbus 19's which I saw in the catalog, but were not online this morning. I checked again tonight and they were there! I pounced on them! The take away message here is to keep checking online because they add items frequently. If you don't see something you want, it may show up later.

I go through 4-5 pairs of Aasics Nimbus a year so I was excited to see them in a tiny picture on the very back page of the printed catalog that was mailed to my house. I almost needed a magnifying glass to confirm that the picture was truly Nimbus 19's. I have never seen the Nimbus on sale before. kayano's go on sale fairly regularly, but not the Nimbus, at least not that I have seen. The Nimbus 19 has been one of my favorite versions of this shoe. I am tempted to order more than the 3 pairs I did, but running shoes deteriorate when they sit around, so a one year back up supply is all I keep. Aasics Nimbus 19 are good for a neutral gait, high arch, maybe slightly narrow foot, and maybe narrow in the heel.

Moving Comfort Fiona bra - another personal favorite. I replenished my stock of these. They aren't fancy, but they are comfortable, no chafing for me even in a marathon, and they work across all my activities. Good discount here also, and the colors were neutral. Blue, black and white.

Hanky Panky boy shorts, my favorite undies at a good discount. The colors at the sale are a bit neon IMO, but these do not leave VPL. The neon colors might show through white jeans and skirts. I only purchased a few of these because the price was so good,. They are hard to find on sale at other times of the year, so if you like them, or want to try them, this is a good opportunity.

Natori feathers bra. I have a recollection of this style working for me in the past, but I may be imagining things. I liked the colors it comes in, and it's pretty too!

I found my favorite, everyday perfume in a slightly larger than usual bottle which made the price a good deal.

That might be my 2017 NAS haul!
