    Tommy Hilfiger Outfit

     

     

    I've long considered myself to be the most frugal person I know. I'm so frugal I make my own powdered sugar.  You will find me seeking bargains almost daily. If I could have a profession as a thrift shopper, I'd be rich. 

     

     

    I could never afford Tommy clothes but love his styles therefore, I seek out his labels when thrift shopping. Often I score my purchases on 99 cent days.  The outfit I have showed in the video and in pics was purchased for $5.34. Yes, that was the total price for all four items. 

     

     

    I often see "thrift" shoppers on talk shows and laugh at their so called bargains, though they have made some good finds, I am able to do better...

     

     

    I only see two items in my closet that were purchased new, everything else has been thrift store. 

     

     

    Seldom does a day go by when people don't comment on "how nice" I look or how they like my shirt, jeans scarf, purse  etc....When they ask where I got it, they are shocked and say, wow, I'm going to have to go shopping with you....

     

     

    All of my under armour gear has been purchased second hand also.  I hope you  like this find of an outfit and if you'd like to see more, I have two closets full of goodies.
