Be your own valentine and go shopping
Still looking for a Valentine's Day gift for someone... or yourself?
Stores have already started marking stuff down for the weekend. Maybe they know people will be rushing around looking for that perfect perfume. Or maybe they know I need new shoes.
Here are the sales I've heard of thus far:
- Payless is having a BOGO 50 percent off sale. AND, it's offering a free shipping upgrade when you spend at least $30.
- Now through Sunday, get as much as $60 off at Express. The tiered sales goes like this: $15 off purchases of at least $30; $30 of $75; and $60 off $150.
- Need something for your kid or baby? Head to Old Navy, which is having a 40 percent percent off sale.
- Order by Sunday at Macy's and get guaranteed delivery by Valentine's Day (but you have to spend $99, so no cheaping-out here).
And those are just the sales from the first page of my e-mail inbox. I'm sure there are more! If you know of them, leave us a comment!
(And if you're wondering what the photo has to do with shopping ... well, nothing really. I was hungry. And doesn't this chocolate Chambord souffle look delish? Someone should get me THIS for Valentine's Day.)
