Milk, wet wash, and a dirty bathroom are all things that you probably shouldn’t walk away from for about a week.

Something that won’t smell if you leave it alone are clothes at places like Old Navy, New York & Co., and Express. If any of those places are on your regular shopping route it’s best sometimes to try on while their clothes are full price then walk away for a while.

Just a couple weeks ago I wandered into Old Navy, found a blouse I loved but when walking to the register woke out of my fog and realized that $34 was WAY to much to spend on a shirt from the lowest end of the Banana Republic chain.

Going back this weekend, however, seemed to put my hypothesis into a solid theory category as that same shirt was reduced to $8!

Patience, grasshopper. It will save you so much money!
