C Wonder – Bargains To Be Had
It was about time I had an afternoon out. It seems like forever since I actually ventured into a store that didn’t sell food. I was beginning to feel like a recluse.
Today, I had arranged to meet up with my lovely friend Diana for lunch, she is an amazing woman, a writer, a poet and such an inspiration to me. Today’s outing gave me the opportunity to go to the mall (where we were having lunch) with the intention of just merely browsing. Who could resist the chance to visit a few of my favourite shops?
First stop Banana Republic. I seem to automatically migrate towards this store for some reason. I felt myself being drawn more towards the accessories, handbags and shoes as opposed to general attire. More than a couple of things caught my eye, from smart to casual. I already have my eye on a summer handbag. In the clothing department bright spring/summer colours were in abundance. Jades, bright blues, sunny yellows, burnt oranges to pastel shades of palest blue, pinks and violets.
I ventured to JCrew and Macy’s but nothing really ‘jumped out’ at me. Not to be deterred I soldiered on.
C Wonder was next. Did I spy a bargain? To be honest not at first. Then, my eyes wandered over to the shoe area. I had in mind something for spring/summer but a little unsure of the style and colour. Basically a ballet, flat or modern loafer, something to wear with jeans, linen trousers, shorts or cut-offs. Casual smart. You get the picture?
I spy with my little eye a C Wonder shoe sale.
You may ask “Did I find what I was searching for?”
What is in their colourful carrier bag. Lets be honest it’s hardly something I can hide from the hubby is it?
Not one but two parcels. Such fabulous shoe boxes too.
Well, the story goes like this. Original price $128 per pair. Sale price $69.99 per pair. As the sales assistant was processing my purchase, she sang out ”That will be $37″. What? I thought I had not heard her correctly until I checked the receipt. She stated they had been reduced again by another 50%. “You should have bought another pair,” she said. I then got to thinking. If I was prepared to pay $69.99 for one pair, I could buy another pair as logically I would have 2 pairs for the price of one. A combined total value before the sale of $250. Female logic or creative mathematics?
A bargain is a bargain. 2 pairs it was then. Oh doesn’t it make you feel good when something totally unexpected happens?
Fabulous style, classic shoe, one brown with orange trim, the other navy with white trim.
Others colours available in the sale are navy with turquoise piping or cerise pink with navy piping. Don’t delay, they will surely sell out at that price. I was nearly tempted to get the other 2 pair.
I can’t wait to test drive them!
