scouse mouse Posted January 26, 2008 #1 Share Posted January 26, 2008 Round about Christmas time I saw a lovely evening dress, in petite size that would be great for our Constellation Baltic cruise in May. Unfortunately, the price was too much for me £180. Was shopping with my sister in law today and found said dress - in my size reduced to £20. Must have been my lucky day.

When something like that happens, I believe it was in the stars and the person was meant to have it.:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Happy ks Posted January 27, 2008 #6 Share Posted January 27, 2008 Congratulations on a wonderful bargain :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
momofmeg Posted January 27, 2008 #7 Share Posted January 27, 2008 That is great! that has happened to me a couple of times-I would see something and feel I could not afford it and I would watch for it to go on clearance-usually though just because I really wanted it -it was long gone before mark down time. I loved the Connie and I hope to cruise her again. She is a beautiful ship! I wish I was crusing with you! have fun! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi,:) may I ask what the pound = to the US dollar right now? Congratulations on your savings:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Lois R Posted January 27, 2008 #9 Share Posted January 27, 2008 I know Europe is very expensive to visit right now. I was basically wanting to know what her original 180 pounds for the dress = in the US dollar. I will look it up on a currency site. 180 pounds = $356.00 right now.

sweetnovember Posted January 28, 2008 #13 Share Posted January 28, 2008 Here are some pics of the dress I paid $49 for. I have seen several posts for Ross 's. If there are any of those stores around you and you've not been definately go. They have lots of clearance dresses for under $10. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kim_and_Scott Posted January 28, 2008 #15 Share Posted January 28, 2008 Sweet November - Beautiful dresss! Scouse mouse - can't wait to see your bargain! I've done all of my pre-cruise shopping, but we're going to the Mall of America this week - I may have to check a few clearance racks and make a little more space in my luggage :) Later, Kim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
