How to Survive Life in the Suburbs

Celebrate Spring With A Giveaway! $100 GC

in Lifestyle on 04/08/16

This past week has been dark, gloomy, dare I say depressing.  So I did what any other self-respecting Mama in the suburbs would do.  I went shopping!  The catch, this wasn’t just any kind of shopping.  This shopping, I did from the comfort of my very own house.  Yup.  Fuzzy slippers, red wine, roaring fire and Sears.ca.  You won’t believe the deals I found!

I started my shopping ..well for myself of course.  Screen Shot 2016-04-08 at 1.38.33 PMI found this sweet little Jessica striped skater dress on sale for only $26.99!  What!  Seriously, that’s $33.00 of it’s regular price.

Add some Logan Hill™ Aviator Sunglasses for $15.99 and a cute belt and my big red bag and you are ready for that elusive spring to finally arrive.

While I was perusing all those fab accessories available at Sears I stumbled across the Roots Laptop Satchel.  It’s on sale right now for $66.49, that’s 30% off it’s regular price!  With all the travel I have coming up, it was truly hard to resist!  I’m adding this beauty to my wish list for my next shopping trip!

Of course all my shopping couldn’t be for me.  I’m generous like that.  I also managed to pick up this Clinique “Party Pretty” Make- Up Set. A set valued at $133, on sale for only $47!  Perfection!  It’s going to make a wonderful gift. 

And don’t worry, I didn’t forget the man in my house.  He’s been working extra hard lately and deserves his own little pretty.  When my packages arrive, so will this TOKYO LAUNDRY® Crew Neck T-shirt.  It’s cute right?

Time on the Sears.ca site was time well spent.  I found some fab deals, and even bookmarked a few items to go back and buy later!  Tell me, does doing a little shopping on-line or in store at Sears sound like your idea of fun?  Then I have a some fabulous news for you!  One lucky reader of How To Survive Life In The Suburbs will WIN a $100 Gift Card to Sears!

      I really like that Roots Laptop Satchel too, it doesn’t look no where near big enough for a laptop though. 🙂

      I like the Roots Laptop Satchel. I need a new coffee maker and it is time to replace my clothes washer. So many things.
