All of the running shorts are Dri-Fit or have the equivalent technology. The moral of the story? Buy running shorts for the summer in December, they will be marked down 80%-90%.

PS: If you're wondering why some of them are 20% off while others are 30% off, it's because one week I had a 20% off coupon, and the following week I had a 30% off coupon.

CVS Early Black Friday Edition


Let's just say.... everything here was "free." That means I did pay out of pocket (used a bunch of $10 Amex cards earned from weeks previous + cash out of my own pocket), but I got the same amount + more back in Extrabucks which will be used to roll purchases indefinitely.

You'll see me use $20 Extrabucks earned from this transaction next week to pay NOTHING for laundry detergent, and then receive a $10 Amex Gift Card. Stay tuned...

And Happy Thanksgiving!
