Off Season Steals

Last week as the temperature pushed nearly 100 degrees, which, in case you are wondering is not a common Wisconsin summer occurrence, Paul and I found ourselves at the mall seeking air conditioned entertainment.  After checking out all the deals the mall had to offer we walked away with a pair of jeans and a sweater for my husband totaling $9.  According to the "actual price" listed on the tags we saved $41 and were once again reminded that off season shopping is the way to go!  Not only do you save money in the long run, but when you pull out that sweater you bought on a 100 degree day 6 months ago and forgot about,  you get that "frugal find high" all over again.... or at least I do!
