Consignment stores and help please!

I got these jeans at a consignment store for Drex. The baby gap tags were still on them. I paid $7 and the original price was $29.50.
I guess I am cheap ..or very frugal, however you wanna look at it. I didn't like the idea of paying $7 for them but there's no way I'm paying the original price when he might wear them a month or two.

What do you think? Am I cheap or frugal? Do you shop at thrift or consignment stores?

Now for the help I need....

My uprinting giveaway is doing awful!! It has NO comments!! Is it my blog or people don't want free postcards??
....Both?

I'm on my phone and I hope this link works but if not its in my right top sidebar.

No shame

Ok now I'm wondering if my blog days are coming to and end????

I like to think I am just smarter then everyone else who is paying full price...and I don't know if I would have paid $7 for those jeans even though that little guitar on them is sooo cute!

The jeans are gorgeous, a bargain at $7!
I'm wondering what's the difference between a consignment store and a thrift store? And an outlet?
Here in Ireland we have stores(shops) and charity shops(which sell donated stuff, mostly second hand, for the charity, and manned by volunteers).

I think you are pretty smart. I would never pay 20 something for a pair of kids jeans!

As for give aways.........I just don't enter very many.

Keep bloging!

I understand completely about not really liking the idea of paying $7for an itty bitty pair of jeans much less the full price. However, you did get a good discounted price on them so I would say that you did pretty well.

As far as the postcards go. It is not that I don't want them, I just don't need them. I have so many that I could send post cards and also greeting cards for the next 5 years.

I love reading your blogs and will comment on them when possible. When I had my blog open a lot of people would come to visit, but some would never leave a comment. Not sure if some just don't have the time or just don't know what to say.
