With the struggle in the economy, consumers will see more stores closing their doors and we  will have the opportunity to purchase our favorite must have products at reduced prices. 

As a retail store owner this week I was faced with a decision for my store, The Giving Boutique.  We are relocating ( just moving across the street) but I had to decide if I wanted to pay movers to box, pack and move the items or just put all of my stores inventory on sale.   Needless to say since I am a Sister of Savings,  I decided this would be the perfect time to pass some savings on to the consumers which means you can find designer suits like Calvin Klein, Ralph Lauren  and other brands that  retail for up to $169.00 on sale for $20.00 and all our jeans and pants are just $10.00  and nothing is above $20.00 in the entire store.  Many business owners are facing the same decisions. This is a buyers market.  You can see store closings on every corner. 

The temptation is always there, clearance items everywhere and what should you do?  You walk on by.  Just because a store is closing don't run to the first sign that says 20% off.  The store will continue to mark down their inventory because they are leaving and if you are patient you can get items for pennies on the dollar.

Ask yourself if you really need the product.   Google the product you need to find the lowest price and then be prepared to wait it out.  I found software I had to have that was $79.00 for $1.90  What have you found because you were patient?  Tell me about it, I love reading about great deals!

Until next time keep saving and giving.
