Things I rarely do

There are lots of things I always do 
There are lots of things I sometimes do
There are lots of things I rarely do
And there are lots of things I never do.


I am not a very thrifty person.
I have always admired those people that coupon clip and watch for good deals and get amazing things for very little money.  I have heard that it's a full time job.  I have a full time job and I don't need another one.  However, it always seems that I could use more money.

I have a habit of choosing quality over frugality.
I must mend my ways.  There is something to be said for being thrifty and getting the best bang for your buck.
I hope someone can teach me how to do this, I haven't figured it out yet, and I am kind of old.

Today I was at our new outlet malls.
It was really windy.
We went into Gap.
And then something amazing happened, thrifty and frugality made their presence known, right there, right in the store.
Something that I rarely do is take pictures of myself.
Something that I never do is actually post said pictures of self on any sort of social media.
But the good deal had to be documented.
I got the sweater below from Gap for $0.67!!
67 cents!!  I can't even walk from my car to my house without burning more energy than that. 

Maybe there is hope for me, maybe I CAN learn to be thrifty and frugal.  Ahhh, it feels good already!
