Wal-Mart Couture...Online














Trench Coat, $27.99















Teal Jersey Dress with Braid Trim, $12.00















George Leaf Top, $15.82


Great Coco Chanel's Ghost! Doth mine eyes deceive me, or has Wal-Mart stepped up their women's apparel department? Clean lines, minimal sequining, stylish prints, good colors, and unbeatable prices...yikes, I hate to say it, but I think we have a winner!

With lines like George and Metro 7, Wal-Mart has come a long way in bringing some really nice pieces to their customers. Their prices rival Target ($12 for a dress!) with probably the same quality. While their apparel is still a far cry from Marc Jacobs, if you are in a pinch and need a new pair of pants or top for work, their stuff ain't half bad.

Until recently, you had to actually go to your neighborhood Wal-Mart to purchase these discount duds, and pray that someone else didn't already snatch up your size. However, now you can shop online and get the same great discounts without having to head to the supercenter. Check out www.walmart.com for great deals on apparel and more, without leaving the comfort of your home.

Everything's For Sale on Ebay!















A Lock of Britney's Hair? (source)

Within hours of the breaking news of Britney Spear's scandalous head shave, fans and frauds alike took to ebay posting ads claiming to offer up strands of her hair. Listings like the one here
started their bidding at $3,000, and actually have people making offers, while other listings have been completely removed.

This just goes to show you that everything is for sale on ebay. Unfortunately, you can't ever really trust that what you are going to get is authentic (and who really wants some greasy old extensions anyways?).

However, real fans of the Britney empire will be glad to learn that you can find the best deals on her new fragrance, Midnight, at www.edeals.com. For only $55, you too can smell like the pop princess. Check out all of Edeals listings for Britney Spears here, and know that you are getting the real thing, at a really good price.

Last Minute Valentine's Day Shopping Ideas












Still wondering what to get your sweetie? (source)

What, you didn't know? Yeah, today's Valentine's Day. If you are slapping yourself on the forehead because you forgot again, then don't worry. You still have time! Thankfully, Valentine's Day isn't like some of the major holiday's that cause most stores to close, so you are bound to find something for your special someone.

However, if you are trying to do some last minute Valentine's Day shopping, then you probably haven't had time to think about what you are going to get. Fortunately for you, most retailers have probably thought of a few ways for you to get a little something for your sweetie, as long as you don't mind shelling out the few extra bucks.

Here are a few ideas for you last minute Valentine's Day shoppers:

1) Flowers: Okay, so there probably isn't a dozen red roses within 50 miles that aren't wilted or way beyond your price range. Instead, why not try some nice potted flowers like orchids, tulips or daisies? You'll impress your Valentine even more if you tell her that you wanted to get her a plant that will mirror your love for her; one that will never die (sappy...we know).

2) Gourmet Chocolates: Does your Valentine have a sweet tooth? Then hit the mall and load up on some serious sweets from the gourmet chocolate shop. As the person behind the counter which truffles and tortes are the best, and have them wrap up your delicacies in a fancy box.

3) Pre-Made Gift Baskets: Does your Valentine love lotions? Enjoy a good beer? Many grocery stores offer pre-made Valentine's Day baskets geared towards special interests, such as bath products, sports enthusiasts or champagne and caviar. Pick one up, or make your own. One easy idea that everyone will love: Movie Night! Get some popcorn, gift certificates to a movie theater or video store, some candy and soda or other drinks and voila!

Whatever you do, don't forget your valentine today, even if you just pick up a card or make them a special meal. If you find yourself totally stuck while shopping, ask a sales clerk for some more ideas to make this year truly special.

Valentines Shopping For Him




















Ipod Nano, $113.95



















Digital Photo Keychain, $50


Completely stumped on what to get your guy for Valentine's Day? In a word; gadgets. No matter what your guy is interested in, chances are, if it runs on batteries, he's going to like it.

No, I'm not talking about nose hair trimmers or one of those laser pointers...something slightly cooler and sleeker is in order for V-Day. One of my favorite places to find cool "guy gadgets" is Brookstone. Pretty much every mall in America has a Brookstone, so head there for last minute gifts for your Valentine.
