Thrifty Mom in Me

One of the things I love doing while I visit my family in the US is of course, shopping! I find buying good to great quality clothes there cheaper than here in Manila. The bargains are endless. I know we have bazaars here or more known as 'tiangge'. But the quality seems to downgrade together with the price. But when I shop on vacation, I can get an amazing top for like $2!
Yes, I am not ashamed to say it. I shop at bargain stores. The more I can get out of my money, the better. I don't care if it's from Walmart or Macy*s or whatever brand at the mall. I'm a bit of a frugal shopper believe it or not. If it goes beyond $30, it better be so darn beautiful and that I can wear it no matter the weather.

It's not only for clothes that I try to spend wisely. Same goes for groceries or restaurants. My sister and I love looking for promo codes or coupons to save us some bucks. Actually, if I lived in NJ, I would have probably started a couponers club together with my BIL and sister.

I actually found a site that I will give you promo codes for any store that you can possibly think of. From Target to my favorite Kate Spade NY, they have it! PromotionCode.org is your go-to place. They publish the most up to date promo codes and coupons online so you don't miss out on any deal. The great thing about them is that you can subscribe to their daily mail letters so that if there are new deals that you might be interested in, you will be notified by e-mail instead of having to go back to the site to look for them.

I really wish we'd have something like this here in the Philippines so that people can actually save some money. The only thing that comes close to this are groupons and other sorts of coupons that are only for specific items/services/deals.
