It can be tough to save money in this town. But this weekend the Clog found three ways student wage slaves can stretch their lettuce while still supporting a shoe fetish. Really.
1. Before you say there goes the neighborhood, you should check out the new Dollar Tree at the corner of Shattuck and Haste. Despite inside and outside appearances, there are 10 aisles of goods ranging from household items, food, and kid’s toys. The store doesn’t skimp on the dollar store atmosphere either: the flooring is a carpet equivalent of astroturf and somewhere between aisles 3 and 4 there was an odor, although it could not be determined if it were the customers in proximity or the store itself.
Finds include martini glasses with dark blue or teal colored stems, an aisle of candy, and party supplies, including St. Patrick’s Day favors before the holiday.
2. Looking for a new game to play? We bet you are. Barnes & Noble has a table of board games 75% off. Games include multiple Sudoku-themed, sports, trivia, and an Incan dice rolling game. Take one home, invite some friends over and have a new experience, with or without the board.
3. Although it’s definitely the sale after the sale after the sale, that also means cheap, cheap, cheap. Urban Outfitters has a disorganized mess of sale items 75% off. While it can be hard to find something, it’s a well earned victory when you do.
In the interest of full disclosure, one of the Clog staff works there and absolutely loves it if you try on lots of things, decide not to buy them, and hand them back in a big mess to be hung or folded.
