I had a 20% off coupon that expired yesterday for a purchase at JC Penney's.
Older daughter purchased her own prom ticket ($100) so DH and I agreed to buy her dress and shoes.
All of her friends got dresses from Penneys, so we headed there. She tried on every single size 1 we could find - long, short, in between, sheath dresses, cupcake dresses, etc.
She ended up between two: the classic pale pink lace, strapless, long, with bead embellishments in a heart-shape on the bodice AND the other was a very elegant black lace number, reminiscent of something from the Roaring 20s flapper, open back with beading. She ended up with the first one because it screamed "prom".
I am not sure of the fate of the dress, whether she will keep it or exchange it. But the particulars of the purchase:
Original price: $138
Less 40%: - $54.01
Less 20%: - $16.00
Tax: $ 5.28
Total $69.27
My daughter contributed $30
My OOP $39.27
Also earned $10 off my next purchase due to their in-store rewards club.
Bringing my outlay to: $29.27
Pictures to follow.
Prom dress shopping = Done
