I also used a coupon code from the Retail Me Not app and got them even cheaper. They were on sale for $23 (normally $60) and my grand total after tax was $19.40. The funny thing is when I pulled up my confirmation email after we left the store, I realized I ordered the wrong style. I don&#8217;t know why when I searched their kiosk for river sandals the first result was sports sandals, but I chose those by mistake because they look very much alike aside from the toe area. Luckily I was able to call customer service and since I had placed the order less than a half hour before calling, they were able to cancel the order and re-do it with the correct shoes so I would still get the free shipping and discount. Whew! Lesson learned &#8211; pay more attention next time.<\/p>\n<p>We also came upon a store in the mall called Rue 21 and even though it didn&#8217;t look like my kind of place I decided to browse and came upon these super cute tank tops. They sell for $10 each but the sale gave you the second one for only $3 so it wasn&#8217;t bad. <\/p>\n<p><center><a href=\"http:\/\/nicole.sleepyfroggie.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/06\/Rue-21-Tanks.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/nicole.sleepyfroggie.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/06\/Rue-21-Tanks.jpg\" alt=\"Rue 21 Tanks\" width=\"500\" height=\"375\" class=\"entry\" \/><\/a><\/center><\/p>\n<p>They are bit clingy to my unwanted rolls (I&#8217;ve been working out and watching my eating and yet no weight loss yet), but they are so super soft I had to have them. For now they were be at-home only tanks until I can get back into shape.<\/p>\n<p>Today I returned the Walmart tank top and ended up buying four more regular tanks because at $4 each I couldn&#8217;t resist. Tank tops, as everyone knows, is my jam! Although these are also clingy, but I got them because they are nice and long and I love that look where you have them peaking out at the bottom of a tshirt. So that&#8217;s their purpose (well, except for the one on the far right which was just too cute to pass up).<\/p>\n<p><center><a href=\"http:\/\/nicole.sleepyfroggie.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/06\/Walmart-Tanks.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/nicole.sleepyfroggie.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/06\/Walmart-Tanks.jpg\" alt=\"Walmart Tanks\" width=\"500\" height=\"375\" class=\"entry\" \/><\/a><\/center><\/p>\n<p>Then I went to Target to get a few things. I got free samples of the L&#8217;Oreal shampoo and conditioner in my Walmart beauty box and really love how my hair looks after using them. My total was just over $20 before I exercised my mad couponing skills and brought it down to $9.68.

Yikes! And I&#8217;m not finished just yet. I plan on ordering some bras from Hanes&#8217; website since I don&#8217;t come along comfortable ones often and they are having a nice sale right now. Walmart&#8217;s selection leaves a lot to be desired so they didn&#8217;t have any other colors I needed in the style I liked.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I don&#8217;t know what it is about the warm weather that turns me into little miss shopaholic.
