Jeannine T K Maxx it is a chain of stores that sell high end fashion at 60% or more off. My Radley was £45 instead of £135
Paul smith shoes £35 instead of £180 get the picture ? but it is hit and miss ,they also do Osh Gosh.

Jeannine

I wasn't dropped on my head, my nanny was very professional !! She was clever too, taught me all I know about shopping.

Anyway you cheeky monkey I bring the housekeeping in  this house.

Furthermore my hats are not daft, well not when they have a designer label!!

Osh Kosh b' Gosh, where are these shops!!

XX Jeannine

By the way most of my handbags have been gifts!!

Oh and good shoes fit everyone better than cheap shoes, whatever your legs are like!!  ::) ::)

If I ever get it all right - then that's the time to quit.

Fill my trolley with BOGOF food offers to save in the long run.  Most of our food shopping done this way.  Also buy selection boxes post Christmas -  for party bags for my daughters birthday.... 4 weeks later
