Posted on September 30, 2009 in Fall, Sales.

I know posts have been slow, but life has gotten in the way of blog posts. To prove that I’m always thinking of you (and your wallet) here are some sales that you should be made aware of: JCrew – 25% off select denim Martin + OSA – 40% Fall items Gap – 25% off…Read the Rest

I recently drove through downtown during lunch time and it was like a rally for Office Max workers on the streets. I saw so many pleated khaki pants, blue button downs, and white undershirts that I wanted to stop and ask if somebody could help me with my printer cartridge. When it comes to business…Read the Rest
