I’m soooo happy that I found Hip2Save! You have no idea! We could totally be BFF’s! Lol! I am known to my friends to be a fun and savvy shopper always finding amazing bargains and deals! With 3 girls… we like shopping in our house! My hubby and I attended the Dove Awards in Nashville this past year (I work in radio!) and I was excited to find that perfect dress for the red carpet! Popped into my favorite thrift store here one day and found THE DRESS! It cost me a whopping $5!! Designer name… fit me like a glove!

Off to Nashville we went. Got all ready for the red carpet and the pre-show events… and I laughed as so many people came up to me to compliment my gown. My husband and I chuckled after each one walked away – yep, my $5 dress! Woohoo! Thanks for all you do to share these amazing deals. I take advantage of one almost every day!

    I just wanted to thank you all for your sweet, kind and encouraging comments! I was so blessed to share this and then was super honored to have it posted here. It was even more meaningful to me since Friday was my grandmother’s 94th birthday and she passed away almost a year ago so it was our first year without her. I was thinking of her all day and got online to check out some fab deals on here and saw this. She taught me a lot…grace, fashion, style, how to save, etc….so this being posted on her birthday was truly a God-wink for me! THANK YOU! 🙂
