I have been lusting over the Nanette Lepore Ciao Bella dress for months. Several times I added it to my cart online and almost bought it, but at $398, I couldn’t bring myself to do it. Today, the Shop It To Me email showed me it was on sale for around $275 at Bloomingdales. I thought this would be a good chance to get it, but even with the big amount off, that’s still too expensive. I made it to checkout twice before chancing my mind (and the $17.95 shipping cost didn’t help!).

Before giving up, I did a quick Froogle search and found it also on sale at eLuxury for only $150. Now that is a price I have no problem paying for a dress. I also got free shipping and eLuxury’s usual good customer service. I am very impressed with my retail skills, and it goes to show that you should always search around before purchasing.
