Q of C dealie: Insane Cargo deal

Okay I have to share this...I am rambler on this blog so I am going to TRY to keep it short and sweet...

I headed to my fave Sephora in JC Penny's in Manteca...I originally went there only to check a shade for a foundation I wanted but instead I ran into the CRAZIEST clearance in the world. They had a whole lotta crap on sale and unfortunately a lot of it was picked through (I need to be more on the ball) however, they had about 15 boxes of this bad boy:



What is this you ask? Oh its just a fabulous box of some of the 7 best Cargo makeup essentials. And it costs a mere 19.99, originally priced $59 (its actual worth is $170). I love Cargo, I don't have a lot of it but its seriously a good brand.


Oh, and did I mention everything is full size products?? Yeah, its a beautiful thing....

Here is some more of the beautiful box...I was freaking out. Shan the hubb thought I was insane

And just to show I am not leading you astray, here is the proof, LOL

Like I said in an earlier blog...every store and their clearance can be different but it doesn't hurt to look, right? Just don't yell at me if its not there =)

Q of C dealie: jeans, glorious jeans!!

So I have been doing a terrible job blogging. Work has been extra crazy, but I am here!



I debated whether to post this because I am not sure that all places would have this same dealie, but oh well, it might benefit at least someone!

I like to consider myself a jean connoisseur. I own way too many pairs of jeans to count. I have a huge variety of brands, from unknown thrift store finds to what I like to call "fancy girl jeans" (the kind where people blow $200, well not me, thanks Crossroads =P). However, the pair that I am always drawn to are my Target bootcuts. They fit well, have a great jean color, and are slightly worn to make them just right. I heart them.

Well, this cheapie went to target and of course, I made a beeline for the clearance. I always love to peruse the 75% off racks. Most of the time, it can be touch and go, but its worth a look. Anyway, I noticed there were two big racks that had a crapload of jeans with the 75% sign. Like a moth to a flame, I pretty much ran to it. They had so many jeans, glorious jeans, ALL sizes, for $4.98 a pop. Yup, $4.98. I thankfully found my sizes and scooped up two pairs (I'm amazed at my self control).

Ahhh it was awesome. Now, I don't know if ALL Targets have this dealie, but in my prior experience, I have seen similarities in their clearances in other stories. So, esp. if you are a Lodi/Stockton peep, go to the one off of 8 mile.

Its worth taking a look, and besides, I know most of y'all heart Target anyway.

DOn't yell at me if your Target doesn't have it, lol!!But, heed my warning. like every good dealie, things run out fast, so you best be going NOW. Have fun!

Lovin' the price tag!

Pair numer uno, so comfy!

Pair numero dos, love this color!!!

If you like smashbox....another dealie!!!

One of my most favorite things in the world is makeup. I have fallen in love with brands like Smashbox, Bare Essentuals, Cargo, NARS, etc etc...

I have been a fan ever since the hub and I got engaged over 3 years ago as I wanted to have what I like to call " fancy girl"makeup for the wedding.

Even though this makeup is pure FAB it is expensive. And you know me, Queen of Cheap, I refuse to pay 60 bucks for powder (AHEM Smashbox!). So what is a girl to do?

Well, first, I share with you one of my favorite haunts, the Sephora in JC Penny's in Manteca. I have scored beyond killer deals on makeup thanks to their clearance, but I am sure a majority of you don't even live near Manteca, Ca so I have another solution. EBAY.

Wait, don't write me off yet, hear me out!! Yesterday, I logged into nomorerack.com 10 minutes too late and they were selling Smashbox halo (reg $59) for 16 bucks. And of course, SOLD OUT. Angry I missed it, I thought for moment to check ebay. I used to avid ebayer but the bidding give me anxiety, LOL!! I still like to look though and thank goodness I did.

I typed in Smashbox and came up with listings. I wasn't in the mood to bid, so I looked for the "buy it now" products and suddenly an angel appeared. This lady named Laurie sells Smashbox, Urban Decay, Bare Essentuals, Tarte and many other brands for DIRT CHEAP and even better, a majority of her products are FREE SHIPPING and she has 100% positive reviews, and she has like, over 2,000 positive reviews. HOLY CRAP.

I found Bare Essentuals eyeshadows for 6 bucks (normally 16), smashbox trio eyeshadows (normally 28) for $6.99, Lip Fusion plump lipstick (normally 38) for $16.99 just to name a few. She has all different brands, lipsticks, face, eyes, brushes, etc!!

If you are a fan of these products, go NOW. Your welcome. Her store http://myworld.ebay.com/9250laurie/
If you aren't on ebay, its easy and free (from what I remember)

Enjoy all!!!!

Queen of Cheap hearts nomorerack!

Wow, I am on a roll here! 2 how to be cheapie posts, I love it!!



Okay, so this one is for a website that I love, and that everyone can access, no matter where you are. The website is www.nomorerack.com


This website has 8 fresh dealies, every single day. Its a fun site and has something for everyone. The catch is that its only for ONE day and if they sell out, too bad so sad. Example...they had knee high Kenneth Cole boots for 30 bucks. Yup, 30 bucks(Ken ain't normally cheap.) BUt I was teaching when this deal happened and by the time I could sit down in order, they were sold out.



Boo.



So, lesson learned, act fast if you like it. Anyway, its a good site with some fun and cheap deals. Check it out yo.
