sizes were lacking though..mostly Large and XL left
HOWEVER..managed to pick up the last black small of the 2010 series that Vansterdam posted (cos they were already doing the 40% off before 6 for the older stuff)
so..it went like this..bought 2 jackets..
1. $50 -> on sale to $30 -> 40% off to $18
2. $50 -> 40% off to $30
so total $48 - 10% off spc = $43.20 - $10 off $40 coupon = $33.20 + tax...
uber happy!

I know that I need to call MBNA if I'm making an unusually large purchase otherwise they'll just auto block it.

Went down to Bellingham on Saturday, and bought a whole lot of stuff, but mostly Christmas presents and not too much in the way of incredible deals.
Did randomly stumble upon a pair of Asics Gel Frantic 5 sneaks at Foot Locker for $29.99 though, down from $85. Last pair in the store, and was in my size.
Target had a bunch of pretty decent deals... better than WalMart, I thought.
