One day I saw this bracelet in a fashion magazine with no reference as to where to purchase it.  I told my husband that I was going to hunt it down… Somewhere ~ Someplace ~ Somehow.

And then, hee hee hee… it appeared right smack in the middle of two of my favorite cuffs.

WELCOME, new bracelet, to my arm party!  I wear this combo a lot.  Actually, I hardly ever take these off.

I also spied these Eddie Borgo earrings on one of my favorite singers.

and Bada Bing Bada Boom… now on my earlobes.

Both purchases were smokin’ deals.  HOW am I doing this?

Is this simply my God given talent of tracking down the exact same item…OR is it because I follow (24-7…ALL day long…every day )  “members only” shopping sites, such as:  Rue La La, Hautelook and Gilt.  Many of the items I covet often land on these sites at some point in time and at significant discounts.  I mean HUGE discounts on designer items and more.

Many of you are already familiar with these sites, but if you’re not ~ some sites you need to be “invited” to join, others you just simply sign up.  But once you’re IN, you then get access to amazing flash sales, online sample sales and close-outs that typically only last for a few days… sometimes only a few hours.  So this means ~ you’ve gotta act fast!

You can’t just sit there and contemplate whether you should purchase something.  You also can’t question whether that awesome low price is correct or not.

seriously

Because the next time you look ~ your precious item will be G-O-N-E.

So, these are just my three personal faves. Other worthy sites to snag some serious deals are:  Ideeli, My Habit, Zulilly,  and GroopDealz.  Got a great site that you’re willing to share? Please…I must know!

As apparently I’ve got a lot of time on my hands…
