By I like nice things, I always have. I’ve also always loved finding nice things for a steal. This is where you have to get creative and do a little researching. I often find myself up late at night browsing whatever online stores are having sales and that’s when I’ll typically snatch up a few of my (pricier) favorite finds at a lower price. And then there’s other websites that often get overlooked. One of my go-tos? eBay! It’s definitely hit and miss obviously as a variety of items are being posted daily and sometimes it’s just the luck of the draw if you find the exact item you’ve been searching for in just your size. One of my favorite things to search for is knock off items… take the scarf below for an example. These (almost) exact same scarves sell at Zara for triple or more of the price on eBay. Actually, check out the picture below… The one with the “Zara Accessories” tag. SO, if we’re going to be real here, I think they are the same scarf- Zara just has the edge as they’re a reputable brand…. Sell it from their store & BAM- it can be sold for triple the price!
So next time you are dying to purchase that must have item on your list… check out eBay. Who knows- you might just find exactly what you’re looking for at a fraction of the cost.
P.s. In case you decide to order this, it took a week and a half for it to arrive, not a full month as listed (insert thumbs up emoji {where are the emojis on this thing?? I speak in emojis these days- anyone else?}) I have a feeling I’ll be wearing this bad boy a lot this winter… It’s SO warm and cozy too. Def not cheap material. Did I sell ya?!
Oh & the red scarf I snapped a pic of & shared on Instagram (you can find me at Mamamelly5)- that was bought on eBay too… but I believe it’s sold out. You should be able to find various similar scarves.
