I'm usually very strict about my spending. Operating on an annual salary of less than $30K, I have to be creative with my budget each month. Apparently I've spent the past two weeks ignoring that and have shopped like a fool. I'm going to be the only person in the world who goes into debt bargain hunting. Here's a breakdown of my loot...
1. BCBG brown, embellished cocktail dress.
Retail price: $235
Polka Dots & Protein Bars price: $22
2. Trina Turk bright, graphic vintage dress.
Retail price: $302
Polka Dots & Protein Bars price: $31
3. Nine West oversized gray, crocodile, patent leather bag
Retail price: $120
Polka Dots & Protein Bars price: $50
4. Lotus lace tiered pink party dress
Retail price: $116
Polka Dots & Protein Bars price: $29
5. Lotus white draped embellished tunic dress
Retail price: $116
Polka Dots & Protein Bars price: $29
Total Spent: $161
Total Saved: $728
We'll just called it Polkanomics.

Love your logic. :)
WHERE did you find these fab deals?!
Very cute post! I know how it is living on a tight budget, girl! I have banned shopping until further notice.
Maybe you should become a personal shopper??? I'd hire you! =)
That sounds like a great way to spend $161!
i might have to introduce some polkanomics into my life here pretty soon!
Isn't it the greatest feeling in the world to add up the original prices and then compare that to what you actually paid? I love it - such a sense of accomplishment!
You are so funny!!! I am sooo the same way. I always tell my husband, "you wont' believe how much money i saved!" but he doesn't quite appreciate it. :) Awesome deals...I'm jealous!! :)
