Note:  I'm not sure what happened.  I saw the cashier ring up all 3 dimetapp, but apparently only 2 rang up which I discovered later.  When I went back to tell the cashier that she only charged me for 2 instead of three, we also noticed that I was missing a $5.00 RR coupon (dimetapp deal = buy 2, get $5 RR; buy 3, get $10 RR.)  So since the dimetapp was $5.00 and my RR coupons would have been for $5.00, we just called it even.

Once again a GREAT deal at Sears!

I'll have to be honest, I am not an avid Sears shopper. In fact, I think I've only shopped there once in the past...5+ years and that was to stock up on Dockers for the Father's day give away! If you missed it, Men's Dockers at Sears had an amazing - can't pass up deal of BUY $100 of Dockers clothing, and receive a $75 Shell Gas Gift Card! (which finally came in August I think).

I couldn't pass that up (thanks Kendra for the tip) and purchased Ben two new pairs of dress pants, two shirts (that don't fit his slim frame) and a nice new double sided belt (which he needed anyways!) And I paid a whopping $36 for all of that after the gift card. I figured we were going to buy gas anyways so why not get a few free items for it along the way!

Well Sears has once again come through with amazing deals! Thanks to the tip from Money Saving Mom Sears is having a summer clearance in the women's clothing department! Best of all, most of the clothes on clearance are around $2.99 each (size depending). Now I took a few moments to scope it out (how could I resist) and have come away with the feeling that there is a little bit for everyone. At first I thought it was a sale for my mother's generation (no offence) but after flipping through the pages found lots of great work shirts & dresses and even things my youth at church would wear.

So if your looking to spice up your wardrobe without leaving the house or spending a bundle check out the sale HERE - Happy Shopping!
