I’ve created a monster.  I can already tell that realizing I fit into smaller clothes is going to be a dangerous thing to my bank account…

I ended up going to K-Mart tonight (yes, this girl has no problem with shopping cheap), and yes, I splurged.  Now, granted, I did need new clothes, so I don’t feel too bad.  I’m just going to play like Scarlett O’Hara and worry about it tomorrow.

However, I did hit the store on the right sale day!  I got three new pairs of pants and two more shirts for less than $100 (which included about $10 of other essentials and a pair of shoes (the most expensive item on my receipt) to go with one of the pairs of pants).  Not too shabby.  Now I have plenty of clothes to last me for a while.  No more clothes shopping unless absolutely necessary.

The thing I found most surprising is that I had much better luck shopping at K-Mart and actually liked their clothes better than the ones I found at Wal-Mart.
