I was able to go after all. Apparently, there was no need to feel sorry for myself for missing the sale. Hehe.
I went on the third day. Most of the racks and stands were already empty. It was obvious that the remaining items were "napagpilian" already. A lot of people swarmed all over the Lacoste boutique. Even if they were on sale, they're still quite expensive.
Generally speaking, most of the fire sale items I saw were 30% off the retail price. There were very few at 70% off the regular price. Maybe that's why the lines aren't that long anymore. There were lots of people though the crowd was manageable.
I was hoping to get Bettina's baptismal garb but it wasn't on the racks. I was also hoping that the perfume I've been eyeing since March is on sale. Unfortunately, it is not.
I didn't get a bag, though Vic said I could get one as his Mother's Day present (plus birthday, Valentine's and giving birth to Bettina). There was nothing that called out to me. But, I was able to score a pair of Tod's that's discounted by 65%. Yippee!
I also found some necessities like Belly Socks which converts an ordinary to into a nursing top and a pair Nuby gel pads. I'm glad that I waited for the perfect time to get those. I saved nearly 1500 for those two. Of course, I got something for the kids and for the husband. But, their not as excited as I am over my purchases.
After 2 hours and 4 floors, it's time to head home. I went home content. Yep, a bit broke but content.
