I love coming in under budget!

So, before we get to enjoy our vacation, we have a wedding to attend. I had budgeted $100 for a nice dress for the event. I lucked out yesterday when I went shopping for one and only ended up spending $50 total.

I came in $50 under budget!

Believe it or not, I actually ended up getting 3 dresses for that price! We have a store called "Ross" out here that is similar to a Marshall's or T.J.Maxx. The prices are much less than you'd pay at other stores. I could have easily gone somewhere else and paid 3X that amount. I'm very excited and now I have options to choose from :-) Plus, with the extra $50 we now have, maybe the hubby and I will dress up and go out for a (cheap) night on the town!

  1. I LOVE Ross! I actually found a wonderful bridesmaid dress on clearance there for $10! I expected to pay $150 but when the color and size are perfect, you just can't pass that up! Coming in under budget really is a wonderful feeling :)
