Stuff I Keep Forgetting To Tell You Part 3: TJMaxx Marshalls Spendervention Challenge

Remember my TJMaxx Spendervention Challenge? I was given a $25 giftcard to TJMaxx and a $25 giftcard to Marshall’s. I gave the Marshall’s card to my husband. Then I challenged him to save more money than me. If you remember I saved between $78 and $102. THAT IS PRETTY STINKIN’ GOOD.

My husband is a better shopper than me, so I was hoping I had done good enough to beat him. Well, after I gave him the ultimatum of using the giftcard or I was giving it away on my blog, he finally headed over to Marshall’s. (Stinks for yall, huh?)

So, this is what he got:

First up is a sweet pair of O’Neill shorts. These look really slick and still have the original price tag of $49.50! And Les did pretty good because he got these for $15!

Les is into surfer brands. So, when he saw this Ezekiel shirt he knew $9.99 was a score. But too bad for Les, this must have been one of Ezekiel’s least popular shirts. It was only $18.99. What’s that? A savings of 47%? HA!

Ladies and gentlemen, I give you the final amounts:

TOTAL RETAIL PRICE: $69
TOTAL SPENT: $25
TOTAL SAVED: $44*

WHICH MAKES ME THE WINNER by a good $30! Thank you! Thank you!

Now, to decide what my prize should be….

*ps: if my math is wrong, I don’t wanna know…

You’re a woman on a mission! Love it!

I love seeing how much I saved at the supermarket every week. It’s like a game! I’m sick!
