If you love J.Crew like I do and you live anywhere near Asheville, it's worth the drive. Trust me on this.

Be prepared to wait in line. They allow only a certain number of folks at a time. Silly fire codes. 
Wear a tank top and leggings so you can try on clothes over them, as there are no dressing rooms available.  You'll receive a garbage bag and a price list when you enter and you're free to dig through boxes upon boxes of J.Crew goodness until your heart's content. Or until your blood sugar drops. Or at least until you come off your J.Crew sample sale high. Another note: they surprisingly do NOT take J.Crew credit cards in the warehouse sale, so don't bother bringing it. 

Ebates & Rebates - Is it Legit?

I must admit, when I first saw a commercial for Ebates, I was skeptical.  It sounded like there must be some kind of catch.  I wondered if I really could create an account without providing a lot of personal information and I would magically be mailed a check when I shopped online by clicking through their website. But it is true. I have earned over $40 so far with $20 more coming in November.  I bought some building supplies online through Lowe's and had the items "shipped to store."  Score.  I bought my mom and mother-in-law their Mother's Day gifts from Bloomingdale's. Score.  I bought my husband's Father's Day gift from Red Envelope. Score.  I ordered Charlotte's Halloween costume from Carter's. Score.  It seems like nearly everywhere I shop online is affiliated with Ebates and a few dollars here and there keeps adding up to a sweet little check every few months.  Makeup from Sephora. Score. You get the idea.  Add their handy browser button to your computer and you won't even have to remember to use it. You will automatically be reminded.  They also have an app that helps me keep up with my credits. I love it.  Living in a rural area, I shop online a great deal and I feel silly for taking so long to sign up.  If you're interested, you can sign up for Ebates here  Happy Shopping!
