How I find the BEST deals.

I want to start by telling you guys that I legit do not pay over $20 for a piece of clothing. Working in an industry where I see the wholesale price of clothing makes it EXTREMELY hard to pay full price for anything. We are literally paying insane money for that Nike swoosh or that Levi tag to be put on clothing. Stop it. Right now. Seriously, ya'll would die if you saw how much wholesalers pay for this stuff.

There's nothing wrong with wanting that label on your clothes, because I definitely love reppin' that Adidas logo, but I refuse to pay full price.

So I'm going to break down where I shop in 2 sections - local store fronts (Atlanta Area, Statesboro, and Monroe peeps this is for you) and online shopping for all you busy gals. I'll also dip a little into the bigger stores that have the best sale racks and where I get all of Parker's clothes!

Oh and P.S. every store I talk about has a men's section. Sorry boys, I don't have pictures of your clothes BUT go check all these places out because I promise they have stuff for ya'll too!

Your local store fronts

Sandy Springs - Rag-O-Rama - This place was my jam when I lived in Sandy Springs. It's a consignment shop but all of their clothes are "trending" so it's not like going into Plato's closet. You can also take your old clothes up there but they are VERY picky which I don't hate because their selection is all super cute.

This camo sweatshirt top was only $7

Buckhead & Buford - Nordstrom Rack - If you want high end clothes for cheap, this is your place. What Nordstrom Rack does is take in all the "last year" Nordstrom clothes and put them on sale. Everything still has tags and in perfect condition. So you can get Free People clothes, Frye boots, and even prom dresses for the low, low.

This white dress was only $10!

Lawrenceville - Goodwill - No I'm not kidding. This is the best Goodwill I have ever been to. Like I spent over an hour looking around the first time I went here. I'll just leave some pics below because I know ya'll don't believe me. Oh, and here's the address - 251 Scenic Hwy N, Lawrenceville, GA 30046 - you're welcome.

Skirt - $5.99, Beatles top - $2.99 (I cut it), Crops - $3.99 (they were buy one get one 1/2 off)

Snellville - Plato's Closet - Yes, shocker but this is actually a really good Plato's Closet. I mostly use this one to take my clothes to but end up finding a few pieces I like. So if anything, this is where I'd suggest to take your old clothes to!

Kennesaw - Ecologie Resale & Vintage - So this place is a little different. Their clothes are SUPER trendy like that kind of trend you see and think "no way I could ever pull that off" like denim on denim but it looks good on other people. That's the kind of clothes this place has. BUT if you're not in to trying super hard to pull off trends, that's fine, they have THE BEST collection of band/old t-shirts and a solid jean jacket selection. Here's the address for all my people way up in North Atlanta - 2615 George Busbee Pkwy NW #12, Kennesaw, GA 30144.

This Mudd jean jacket was only $15

Johns Creek/Cumming/Woodstock - Uptown Cheapskate - I've only been to the one in Woodstock so I can vouch for that one but there's also one in Johns Creek and Cumming. This store is consignment so you can take your old clothes there if you want but their selection of clothes is pretty decent. I've found a lot of good deals here! They also have a lot of Raybans for sale in the Woodstock one.

Statesboro & Augusta - FINAL CUT - OMG IF YOU HAVEN'T BEEN HERE WHAT ARE YOU DOING WITH YOUR LIFE. This place has clothes, furniture, home decor and anything you could possibly want to waste money on. Everything is brand name stuff like Free People, Urban Outfitters, Anthropologie, etc. and the best part is, all this stuff is like 90% off. Not joking. Free People jeans are $5. Anthropologie rugs for $50. This place is a gold mine but if you plan on going, plan at least 2 hours to sort through everything and then another hour to try it all on. There is so much good stuff here but it is a mess. It's a huge warehouse full of boxes with crap everywhere but honestly you can't complain for the prices.

Go now and don't look back - 3137 Washington Rd, Augusta, GA 30907.

THESE FREE PEOPLE SHORTS WERE $5!

For my busy gals that love to shop online

First off, download Honey to your computer before you start shopping online. It will notify you of ANY coupons you're missing out on before you check out and also will notify you if it finds a better price on a different site. https://www.joinhoney.com/

Ebay - Yes, I know it can be sketchy but if you do your research you can find some really good deals. I mostly stick with shoe deals on Ebay. Below is the link to an awesome shoe store that I have tested and am here to say - it's not a scam! https://www.ebay.com/usr/shoesandfashions?_trksid=p2047675.l2559

These ASICS were $20! Came with the box and no signs of wear.

Shein - It's one of those sites where there are bad reviews but I have a friend who orders from here too so I decided to take a chance and so glad I did. This site has the cutest clothes but the only negative things I would say is that some sizes run different and the quality isn't the best but everything is so cheap. For example, I ordered the same size across the board and everything fit perfect except for a pair of shorts that were tooooo small. So I ordered 5 things and was satisfied with 4 items. For what I paid, I call that a win. Also, I'm usually a medium and went large so I would suggest sizing up. Last thing, it takes 2-3 weeks for this stuff to come in so keep that in mind!

Both pieces were $12 each

Tradesy - If you love to be extra and have to have that real Louis Vuitton purse but don't want to pay $1,000 +, check this site out. This is a site where people resale their brand name clothing and accessories. Everything is certified so you won't get a fake Louis and if you aren't happy with what you got, they have a super simple return policy.

Old Navy - Sign up for their emails and shop online! They send you the best deals but most of them only last 24 hours so you need email notifications to get the best prices. Also, their sale racks are legit.

Nordstrom Rack also has an online store! https://www.nordstromrack.com/

I'm not a huge online shopper - I'm the girl that shops for an hour and then realizes shipping is $5.99 and decide nah I'm good. So, sorry guys, I don't have a lot of online suggestions! But if you know a good site, let me know!

Now, which stores have the best sale racks?

Target - If you don't have the Target app, get it. They offer extra coupons that aren't posted in the store.

Top was $3 and the skirt was only $7!

Tj Maxx - Like if you don't shop here already, what are you doing with your life.

This light pink cocktail dress was $10 on their sale rack!

Ross - I only shop at the Ross in Athens on the Oconee Connector. Most Ross stores are run down and dirty but this one is new and still clean. You have to be picky here but if you have the time to really dig through the sale racks, it's worth it.

These Levi's were only $12 on the sale rack and this leopard dress was $5!

Marshalls - Another no brainier if you love sales. Their shoe section is bomb.

I got these pink sneakers for $13

Walmart - Ya'll, don't hate they have some pretty cute clothes and they have the best deals for workout clothes. THE BEST.

This swimsuit was $12 total and this Army Green Jacket was on sale for $10.

And finally, where do I get Parker's clothes?

KID TO KID - So, I refuse to pay over $10 for something Parker will wear MAYBE 3 times so this is legit the only place I go to get her clothes because I can take the clothes that don't fit her anymore and get store credit to buy her new ones. They also take swings, rockers, and any other baby thing you don't need anymore and want it out of your house. I go to the one in Snellville because they are always nice.

By The Babes - This is where I get her bows! I'm supporting an old friend's small business and she's awesome. She always has the cutest, cutest bows as well as bibs and pacifier clips! Also, if you buy her bows and send her a pic of your babe wearing it, she will feature you on her Instagram! https://www.instagram.com/bythebabes/

Ok, I think I summed it all up pretty well. I love a good deal so if I didn't list a place that you find deals at, let me know! Also, I don't think I have the best style, so this post isn't to show off my fashion skills. If you don't like the clothes I buy, that's totally fine, but just know these places have deals on clothes you may like!
