Size what? *picture*

So, I have a wedding to go to in two weeks, and I had to find a dress. Well, that certainly was an experience - I tried on literally 12 dresses, none of them fit right, I tried on all different styles and cuts - nothing. Needless to say, I was discouraged, and kind of pissed. The woman in the fitting room next to me, overheard me *****ing to my mother (who went shopping with me) and she walked out of her fitting room, over to the sale rack, pulled a size 12 black dress off the rack and handed to me. She said "I think this will look great on you.. just try it." I looked at the size, rolled my eyes, and proceeded to tell myself that I would never be able to even get it over my shoulders, and I was wasting my time but I REALLY needed a dress. I got undressed for the 500th time, and put the dress on, but couldn't get it zipped. I was mad, then my mother queued me in on the fact that its difficult to zip a dress without first clipping it... so she clipped it.. and it fit, perfectly. Needless to say I'm super excited for this wedding now.. and the best part of the whole thing....

100 dollar dress, 50% off = 50 dollars...
50 dollar dress missing the belt it was supposed to come with, 50% off = 25 dollar dress
24 dollar belt in place of the one missing from the dress = 24 dollars on sale for 8 dollars.
100 dollar dress purchased for 33 dollars!! :)

WINNING. Thank you sleevie.
