| James is showing you the SLGs (Small Leather Goods). |
Before Christmas, it's fun to shop for others. After Christmas, it's fun to buy for ourselves! Not by design, yet I bought "holders" of all sorts yesterday and today:😁😉
Here's what I got after Christmas:
1) Stone Mountain Wallet - see above↑) Made of bonded leather. Mine is all black, compact, and the strap when attached, lets me use it as a wristlet. It has the following features:

| In a few colors/textures |
Price: $9.99 at T.J. Maxx. Also sold at Boscov's.
2) Stone Mountain Card Holder - Made of bonded leather. As regular readers know, I think T.J. Maxx is the place to find SLGs even if you buy luxury handbags. You'd be surprised at the quality which ends up there. A bag is a better splurge. Often SLGs are 1/3 to 1/2 of the price of a handbag and they wear out faster. My new leather cardholder is:
Price: $4.99 at T.J. Maxx. Also sold on eBay.
4) Old Navy Silicone Reusable Sacks/Bags - Eco-friendly and sturdy enough to carry snacks, cosmetics, or anything you need to place in your purse, the pantry, or a drawer. I bought a few at $2.99 each. Then they were reduced again to $1, so a few more came home with me. It's rare for me to buy items I'm unsure of exactly how I'll use them, but I know they will keep my purses, pantry and drawers clean and organized. Price: now $1.
3) Uniqlo Women's Beauty Soft Wireless Bras - I've been 
wearing these comfortable and supportive bras since the store 1st opened in NYC. They were discontinued briefly before Uniqlo came to its senses by bringing them back. Very soft and stretchy straps that never hurt your shoulders. Available in several neutral colors and special edition fun colors. Boring as it is, I always stick with neutral or subdued colors so I can wear undergarments with every outfit. Having to match them to a light-colored top is too much work for me every morning. None better than what Uniqlo offers at any color or price point! Usually $24.90. Price: On sale for $19.99 - so I bought 2.

Nice practical things. When the price is right, you get a lot for the money. Value finds are always fun. They make you sooo happy!

Debbie, you really are a Savvy Shopper. I love all your choices, and want them all, lol. You remind me, I need a new wallet, and a new phone holder. PS I finally saw Brisbane's T J Max store today - but we were on a mission to a nearby White Goods store and I had no time to take a look. It is a long way from our home, but I'll get back there one day :) Happy New Year to you!
ReplyDeleteI got my phone holder at T.J. Maxx also … a nice one for $10 when they were so expensive elsewhere. I so hope a T.J. Maxx opens up near you. If customers have a chance to float in to browse regularly, you find such lovely things. Mine is about a 35 minute easy walk from where I live and I go often, mostly not buying things … and yet almost every time I do need an item … it's there! In the near future, Trish, I wish for you the same experience and opportunity!
DeleteOur American T.J. Maxx often has botanical soaps and beauty products from Australia, France, Italy and other countries, and I especially love trying them! I discovered some great Korean beauty face creams by finding them at T.J. Maxx.
