psst: exclusive preview of the uptown cheapskate semi-annual sale (and a giveaway!)

photos taken at the Sugarhouse Uptown Cheapskate location January 15, 2015.

I've been a huge fan of Uptown Cheapskate for years now (see here, here and here), and since they opened their Sugarhouse location, it's become a regular shopping day stop for me - so when they announced their semi-annual sale coming up this weekend (January 16-19), I was pretty durn excited. When they invited me in for a preview, I was stoked at the chance to scope out the potential sale pieces and map out my spending strategy prior to the big weekend, and to share that opportunity with you, my awesome readers. Then, when they offered up a $25 gift card for one of my stylish readers, I have to admit to being a little bummed that I couldn't enter to win it myself - but I'm excited for the opportunity to share the awesomeness of Uptown with you!

On any given day, Uptown Cheapskate has great deals on designer clothing - and this weekend, those prices will be discounted even further, up to 70% off, which means killer stylish deals and major fashion finds. The sale starts this today at 10am (January 16), and runs until Monday night at 9pm (January 19).  Enter to win the $25 gift card using the widget at the bottom of the post by midnight Saturday night; the winner will be announced this Sunday morning so you have a chance to use your gift card to score an awesome new treasure from the sale this weekend.

Now for the obligatory happy, squishy baby photos.....

Kumquat was such a little trooper yesterday - despite arriving at the mechanic's shop shortly after they opened, we were stuck waiting on some repairs to my car for nearly seven hours. She was also incredibly patient with me while I wandered around Uptown, looking at all the pretty things. Pretty sure she is the sweetest baby ever, and I am definitely the luckiest momma ever.
