I REFUSE TO WEAR A THONG UNLESS IT'S MADE BY OLD NAVY

Stephen Bishop Seely breaks down his recent purchase at his favorite store, Old Navy.

Look at this picture...

See all those clothes in that bag. I just went shopping and I scored big time. All those clothes for ...

$161.61. Now it's no secret that I'm a huge Old Navy fan. But this shopping spree was ridiculous. I bought twelve shirts (tee and button down), two pairs of shorts, and a little zipper bag all for below $162. Isn't that crazy? I was so excited about it, I had to blog about it and share my savings (a total of $24.69) to the masses.

It's true, I'm not a fashonista, but I do love a bargain. Sales. Sales. Sales. And Old Navy has them.

So to get the best bang for your buck. Here's what I learned...

1. Go directly to the CLEARANCE section of the Old Navy store.
2. While you are shopping, look on the internet on your smartphone for even more savings.
3. Smile.
4. Try on everything. Make sure you look great in all the clothes you are about to purchase.
5. Shop in rounds.  First round - grab everything that you like.  Second round - divide into piles of "must haves" and "maybe next times". Third round - go through each article of clothing and swear to the Department Store Gods that you can't live without the items you have chosen.
6. Be patient in line to the cash register.
7. Get 25% off when you sign up for an Old Navy card.
8. Dance towards your car and celebrate your ultimate purchase.

That's the rules I live by and I am a happy Old Navy shopper who can't wait to return.

My birthday gifts will be accepted in November (#thinkoldnavy).
