MPmomof3Not Blue Jeans

So, I didn't win the charity auction for jeans, but someone gets a nice pair of pants, and the charity gets some cash.
I did swing by the Neiman Marcus site, and picked up a pair of Christopher Blue jeans, normally $180.00, clearance price $35.00, tax roughly $3.00, no shipping charges because of a code at the top of the page (otherwise, about $5.00 ground). Yes, the darn things are possibly the most comfortable pair of jeans I've ever owned. We'll see how things shake out when I don't wash them in cold water, and I do use bleach (not recommended by the manufacturer), because they are white.
Neiman's as usual, superb service, the package arrived in less than a week.
Maybe in Beverly Hills white jeans don't need bleach, but in Nevada, especially when you are trying to housebreak a 10 week old puppy, white jeans are going to get washed in hot water and bleached. But, right now the fit and comfort is very good indeed.
So, a couple of days later I check out Smart Bargains, which is associated with Loehmann's, an old and respected name in retail.
They had Diesel (?) jeans, normally $180.00 for $29.00 (one pair). Right size, wrong wallet, darn it. But I'll be keeping an eye on them for future purchases, as needed. Here's a blurb about their policies.
"SmartBargains.com stands behind every "Loehmann's@SmartBargains.com" product with our 30 Day Returns. Please note, SmartBargains.com
(rather than Loehmann's) is the seller/retailer of all items offered on SmartBargains.com. All "Loehmann's@SmartBargains.com"
merchandise purchased at SmartBargains.com may only be returned to SmartBargains.com in accordance with our return policy. It cannot be returned to Loehmann's store locations."
Oh, and Overstock which has everyday good prices is having a half off sale. Saw some very nice Donna Karan outfits at more than 70% off, and much more. As usual, shipping on your order is a flat $2.95.
