I love Overstock because


  1. they have great deals

and yeah, that's why I love them. Sometimes they don't always have what you're looking for, but sometimes they have something that you never knew you needed until now. I have found designer shoes and handbags there for great prices. Right now, as in "today only" they are offering free shipping on designer goods.

So you can get something like this....





or a cute Prada something like this.....



But hurry, this offer is TODAY ONLY, so be swift, little chicks!

Why Can't Tuesday=Friday?

I just wanted to let you know one little thing I did that changed my life seriously. I know that not everyone has job flexibility so this would not work for you if you are such a person. But for anyone who does have more flexibility in changing your work hours, hopefully you will find this tip helpful. I take a mid-week weekend. By that, I mean that usually by Wednesday I was dragging and weekends seemed so busy with errands and housework and not enough time for FUN, RELAXATION and SHOPPING. So I was able to work it out that I now have Wednesdays off. Completely free. I'm able to work a little longer the other 4 workdays to make up for it so I can still work full time but have that midweek break. I usually use it to do all my errands since most places are less crowded during the week. It leaves more time for me to enjoy my weekend and I am a much happier, less-stressed chick. It was one of the best moves I ever made. So, you know what that means? Today is Tuesday, which is kind of like my Friday. TGIT everyone!

Go for the Gold

I have a sixth sense when it comes to sniffing out jewelry sales. Macy's is having a Gold Sale and you can get 50% off gold earrings, bracelets and necklaces. Gorgeous pieces like this 14k gold heart bracelet, originally $450, now marked down to $225. This is a good link to send to your boyfriend/husband with the title line "Not So Subtle Hint".

To All the Spas I've Loved Before....And Have Yet to Love!


I am such a spa chick. I am addicted to facials, body treatments, massages, pedicures, you name it and I've probably done it. One thing I love to do is go to new spas. When I travel, I always try to find a good spa to hit. Some people do mountains, some do theme parks, I do spas. So just wanted to pass on this little tidbit to chicks like me who are on a spa-quest. Spa-Finder. It is a global resource (yes, I said GLOBAL, as in all around the globe) to help you find every spa at the location you request. It's a great way to not only find a new spa to try, but you can find deals and specials and can also buy gift certificates for someone to any spa in the directory. Have a sister in Dallas? Look up spas in Dallas and buy her a gift certificate. The directory contains both day spas and getaway spas. "Getaway Spa"=2 of my favorite words in the English language.
