plan to use coupon codes

I ended up hitting the mall last night to get that bra I needed, as well as a gift for a baby shower. The theme of the shower is “Baby’s First Book”, and we’re supposed to bring a book that we enjoyed as a child. I got Pat The Bunny, because it’s probably the first book I ever remember looking at. Anyway, $20 later in Waldenbooks, and $45-ish later at Victoria’s Secret, and I was done. Shame on me for not planning ahead! I know I could have gotten the books cheaper online with a coupon code, and I would have saved myself the hassle of the trip to the mall. And don’t EVEN get me started on Victoria’s Secret. I get Victoria’s Secret promo codes in my email all the time - did I use one? Nope, I paid full retail. Dumb, dumb, dumb!

Instead of waiting til the last minute to shop next time, I’m going to plan ahead, and find a deal online, and use the coupon codes available to me. This site has a few Gap coupon codes (my new pants came today) but I’m noticing that the Gap people are a little stingy with the deals. The only free shipping code listed is only available if you use your Gap card. How about a little love for the rest of us, Gap?

Target is a little bit more generous. In fact, here’s a Target coupon code good for $5 off your order. Not huge, but better than Gap, right? And if it saves me the gas and time, $5 is better than nothing. (Especially considering I went to THREE different Targets last night in search of something very specific, and none of them had what I needed!)
