BLACK FRIDAY 2014 Shopping Haul- Kate Spade, Old Navy, Sport Chek, MAC, Victoria Secret & more... (LONG POST)

Today was my FIRST EVER Black Friday shopping spree!!!! Many people think I shop a lot due to my large range of MK/Coach bags, but I never real go on an actually haul for clothing etc since its SO expensive. I went to buy jeans last time and lowest price I could find for a pair of jeans was $44 dollars. Talk about pricey! So why not take advantage of this opportunity. Thank goodness its Pay Day.

This is going to be a LONG post (as stated in the title-lots of pictures mostly). I did both online shopping and went to Toronto Eaton Centre for the remaining items. Lets get started:

Kate Spade NewYork- 75% Online Sale: 

Mika Pond Stacy Wallet (Color-> Fresh Air): 
I have been some what obsessed with the "Tiffany Blue" colour (as you could tell with my Nike purchase). Instead of me a getting pink wallet, which would be my normal take, I got this Tiffany blue wallet! Kate Spade rarely does sales, but of course Black Friday would be 75% OFF!! I have never seen that happen in a long time! I took great advantage of this and ordered this beauty. Regular price being $100-120 dollars and now down to $49.99. Pretty good deal! I also wanted a mini bag, which use to be $200 and now $69.99 but of course its sold out.....
So with shopping (thanks canada) and tax it came out to $69.58 (compared to $130). This item is SOLD OUT now. Saved $60 bucks

Betsy Johnson- 33% OFF (Code: BLACK):

Hollywood Glam Leopard Face Necklace: 
I bought this necklace for my Mother! She absolutely loves Betsy Johnson necklaces (just like myself) for many reasons. Main reason why we love Betsy Johnson Jewellery in general, is it STANDS OUT! Like talk about bling bling. Many of the necklaces I have purchased for her in the past, always bring in the compliments when she or myself (when I kidnap her jewellery for a particular outfit) wear it, regardless of occasion. Original price is $98 dollars. It was on sale for $69.98 and thanks to 33% OFF deal, comes down to $46.98! Thanks to shipping (once again) and tax the price shoots back to $71.45 (sometimes I wish I lived in US). However with the normal price, tax and shipping I would be paying about $130 dollars. Saving $60 bucks!

SuperDry:

Hyper Herder Snood (Color-> Cream):
This is a chunky, waffle knitted snood with a thick fleece lining plus, a soft faux-fur trim. It includes the SuperDry logo, right and centre. I decided to pick this up since, I love wearing scarves during winter, and I thought this is pretty fashionable & match my Goose jacket pretty nicely. I had no knowledge of SuperDry at ALL, but was introduced by Noah (thanks buddy). The normal price is $70 dollars, and came down to $49.99. Also with the black friday promotion there NO TAX and FREE shipping. So I paid $49.99 Flat which makes me Save a total of $40 bucks if you add tax/shipping.

This was my Online Shopping Craze for the night. Now moving onto what I got from Eaton Centre:

Sport Chek- NO TAX from 8AM-10AM: 

UnderArmor Women UA Big Logo Applique Twist Hoodie (Color- Siberian Iris):

ONLY reason why I picked this up was due to a FACT (I know, I worked at Sport Chek) that this product NEVER goes on sale. Underarmor is the one company that RARELY goes on sale (boxing day is one of the only occasions). Hoodies were 25% OFF, so the normal price is $69.99 and came down to $44.99. There were many styles and colour combination to choose from but I thought this was a nice mix and eye catcher, especially if you wear it with tights. I truthfully am in LOVE with the colour, Hands down! WORTH EVER PENNY! Note, I haven't bought a underarmor sweater since I quit Sport Check which was in November 2013 so this is an achievement.

Underarmor Women Armour Sport Bra- DD cup (Colour- Black/Purple)

I FINALLY got the Sport Bra I wanted!!! I was lucky, not ONLY did I get the zipper front version in my size, but also got it ON SALE (talk about RARE)! The originally price for the bras are $69.99 but was on sale for $44.99! Sold! Got the second last one! I tried it on and boy does it keep your boobs in PLACE! I can Jog, jump etc and they will not move! Not to mention the quality/material is superb compare to other brands and I have never heard anything negative about this branded bra. Even the lady at sport chek told me this is the Bra to get when your REALLY active! I knew that of course, but always nice to get a second opinion! Im defiantly ready for the gym on monday! So total price for both items was $97.98 (no tax) compared to $160 with tax which let me Save $60 dollars.

Old Navy- 50% OFF ENTIRE STORE: 
I WENT CRAZY AT OLD NAVY! I have NEVER bought so many clothes in one time since...like 3-5 years ago! We were in the store for a good 1.5 hour trying clothes on and looking around. I got a number of items but basically the essential things included:

• Black/White Scarf: $19.99 (Sale: 9.99)
• Black and White Polka Dot Pants: $32.99 (Sale: 16.50)
• 2 Workout Tights (Galaxy Blue & Black/Grey): $35 each (Sale: 16.75)
• 2 Workout Tops (Magenta Shirt/ Neon Pink & Neon orange Tank Top): $15 (Sale: $7.50)
• Red Long Sleeve shirt: $20 (Sale: $10)
• 2 Grey Cardigans (One thin/one thick): $35/$25 (Sale: $16.75/12.50)
• Black T-shirt: $10 (Sale: $5)

Together without the sale would total $243 and with tax= $275. 

Total WITH the Sale was $141. 

I Saved $134 dollars 

MAC- Cosmetics (NO SALE)

Sadly, MAC wasn't doing ANY promotions on ANYTHING, So I simply picked up a lipstick I've been wanting for a while (FIRST MAC lipstick, finally) and a pencil to give me a very dark gothic look. 

MAC Matte Lipstick: Heroine (a nice bright purple)

Due to it being WAY to bright (which I honestly DONT mind) I added the MAC Pro Long Lip Pencil- Bespoken For. When using this in combination will give a very nice DARK looking purple which is what my primary goal is. I usually wear very bright, eye catching lipstick which I do love. However, in the new year I want to change my appearance just a bit, THUS fitting my imaginary image. 

I have to admit, the women who served us was RUDE! Like to the point, where not only talked to someone about it, I called the store to complain and filing a complaint online as well -3- (don't play with me when it comes to attitude). I asked this lady to show me a good foundation, ONLY applies it to one side of my face, and when I stated I wasn't going to purchase it today but wanted a the name of the foundation and powder blend, she told me to write it in my phone -__-. Like WTF, If i wanted to write it in my phone I would have done so bitch....Grr! Not to mention, I specifically asked for the Heroine lipstick and she stated she would get it for us, but instead goes and serves another asian customer -__-!! Leaving me and my best friend to STAND there for 3 minutes. Totally pissed off. I will see to it that she gets in trouble!

Victoria Secret - Up to 50% OFF

This is my first purchase from Victoria Secret. Truthfully, I assumed they wouldn't have bigger sizes but to my surprised they had a large selection. The sale today was Buy 4 panties for $28.50 compared to 1 panties is $11.50-13.50. So my total was $32 dollars with tax compared to $52 dollars. I saved $20.  

Bath & Body Works- Buy 3 Wicked Candles for $33.50:

Yes....I BOUGHT CANDLES AGAIN! I know, I have an addiction....seriously. Anyways, I decided to take advantage of this sale since the last time I passed by it was 2 for $34 dollars. I was only going to purchase 2 (Buy 2 for $25.50) BUT I remembered I had a $10 OFF coupon in my wallet, so I picked one extra candle and got 10 dollars off. So my total came to $25 dollars (LITERALLY the price for ONE candle, and I got 3!!! Now that is a AMAZING deal). I was originally going to buy more Carmel (my previous one is almost done), but I found Hot Buttered Rum & Pumpkin Gingerbread, so I decided to purchase those. Total Savings was $55 dollars (would be $75 dollars plus tax)

THATS IT!!! (For my clothing Haul that is!!!). I did do Part 2 of Shopping which was going to Costco with my best friend for some healthy food, but that will be a separate blog. 

Overall, I SAVED $430 dollars Today :D!!!! Extremely Proud!

Till Next Time...

Bath & Body Works Haul...Again

Yes, I indeed have some type of addiction. I once again, went to Bath &Body Works at Eaton Centre to Buy MORE candles. As I've stated before, I do love candles but would never buy from B&BW just cause it is pricey. On a normal day, these candles will rank up to $25 per candle, so if you buy 2 thats already $50 bucks. Buy more than that, well your spending WAY to much for candles. However, I now understand WHY people spend so much for these candles and now with the "Buy 2 or 3 and Get 2/3 for FREE" event is going on before christmas, I think this is the PERFECT opportunity not only to grab some candles or body lotions for yourself, but good for Christmas gifts (esp people who you don't want to spend $50 or more on and aren't as close to you)

What did I buy this time?

1. Cinnamon Carmel Swirl: Now, I did indeed buy this in my last Haul, so why waste another 22 bucks for ANOTHER one? Well this scent is ABSOLUTELY AMAZING! I, tried both this one and the Japanese Cherry Blossom versions and was a little disappointed that I couldn't smell the Cherry blossom one (well atm I'm pretty sick so I cant smell through my nose -_-). However, being sick did not stop me from smelling this beautiful blend. The carmel is very strong compared to the cinnamon but overall its very calming scent. This in a few seconds will not only smell throughout the room its placed but spread around the house. This scent only comes during Christmas time so I'm defiantly taking advantage of this. 

2. Winter Candy Apple: I bought this one since it had a really nice candy cane scent to it. Also being a limited time scent, I decided I might as well try it. I applied some of the lotion to my hands and was very impressed with the blend. I would have bought the lotion as well, but to take advantage of the deal, I might as well get two extra candles (each originally $25) so save about $60 bucks compared to getting lotions which are normally $10-$12.50.

3. Vanilla Bean Noel: I honestly loved the name for this candle and the blend seemed to go with its title. Though the Scent is not as strong compared to the others, I decided to get it for 2 reasons: A. Vanilla anything smells awesome, and B. Its FREE. So I would take 100% advantage of this deal and promotion and pick up a scent which I clearly wont be able to get later in the year.

4. Limoncello: This was another FREE candle. This had a very strong lemon scent but not strong enough to annoy your nose, especially if lit. Though, I believe this candle can be purchased year round but there wasn't any other Christmas candles that were to my liking, so I picked this up if my room needed a fresh lemon smell to it, especially if I get visitors (not like my room smells but hey little air freshener doesn't hurt)

5. Pumpkin Cupcake: This scent is ANOTHER adorable combination! Who would have thought pumpkin cupcake would smell so delicious. This was actually a FALL scent and they brought the miniature size version too clear it out for christmas season. I wish they had this in the bigger version since it such a calming blend, similar to the carmel but this scent was embedded in my brain and I just had to purchase it. It was $5 dollars each so I bought two which allows me to get two other items ($5 or under) FREE. Which leads to #6.

6. Snowman Candle Holders (mini version): I choose this design to hold my miniature pumpkin cupcake candles since I personally know I wont use these candles as often or for more of a "special" night, due to me having such a limited amount (also having to wait till next year October to purchase the bigger size). Since it was FREE, why not get them to design my desk a bit more. Plus, they're adorable -///-

Finally, another reason why buying these candles is way worth it is their "lifespan" is amazing compared to other candle products. As stated, my family love candles. My mom puts one on usually 3-5 times during the week or 1 per day. Due to such frequency, we run out of candles pretty quickly. I lit the carmel candle and took a nap before my shift (yes I know, you shouldn't sleep with candles on especially if you home alone) and literally burned probably have the candle. However, the wax will cool down and return to its original state for your next usage. Compared to other candles where when its gone....well its gone LOL. So, it may look like a lot right now, but it will last me a LONG time :D

Bath & Body Works have ALOT of good stuff from candles, lotions and really good gift packs, so I would take advantage while you can. The sale ends December 24, 2014 AND with any purchase they will give you a $10 OFF coupon. I paid for the pumpkin candles (10 dollars), got the coupon and than purchased my 2 candles ($49) which brought the purchase to $39 and got 2 large candles ($50 dollar value) for Free. I smell Savings!! If you are candle person or lotion person, than this is the place to go.

Till Next Time...
