Frugal Friday: Shopping for Japan Relief Aid!

I love it when my adoration for shopping and good deals can be combined with helping someone other than myself! Today is that day, Forever21.com is giving 100% of what's spent on their website towards relief efforts in Japan! You can get some cute Spring fashions while helping the many affected by the Tsunami and Earthquakes in Japan.

Living Social is also offering a special where you can donate $5 towards relief efforts and they will double it.

Tips from Lonny on getting good ETSY



Remember Domino magazine? I do, painfully, and like it was just yesterday. Since they became defunct some of the amazing creative wonders created Lonny, an online magazine and also the Lonny Blog. The other day they had some great tips on finding vintage treasures on ETSY. Here's their post:

Frugal Friday!

Oh! It's the day I've been waiting for! Jeremys is having ANOTHER sale and this time it's 60% off of all shoes, men's apparel and wait for it...YES, ALL HOME DECOR! SO excited! This is a sale at both the Berkeley and San Francisco locations.

I plan on getting some gorgeous Anthropologie curtain panels and possibly a new duvet. I suppose that a pair of discounted Christian Louboutin pumps would just be icing on the cake!

Frugal Friday: HUGE Sale Weekend!!

I am slightly overwhelmed by all of the amazing sales this weekend! I may only have to pick a few, and it's hard!
The annual white elephant sale (I've never been!) is in Oakland both Saturday and Sunday, they recommend parking or Barting from Fruitvale then taking the free shuttle to the sale.

The Fremont Borders is slashing prices again on their store closing.

The Alameda Antique Fair is this Sunday, weather permitting.

Lastly Jeremys in the city and Berkeley are having a 50% off all apparel sale both Saturday and Sunday!

Hope you find lots of treasures!
