So in the recent weeks I have somewhat re-gained my standard of living but my old lady has no job so I still have no spending money but I still do have the urge to spend money. So like hunting for toys I hold on as long as I can with my fist clenched tightly around a small undisclosed amount. When I find a deal that is just too good “I strike like deadly python” (in thick russian accent)

So here are two deals that had me sweating. First is swell.com, they’re offering 22% off with the promo code: TWITTER22. Obviously 22% off is no big whoop but I’ve been stalking a flannel on their site for a few weeks now and last week it was 16% off so I figured might as well jump on it.

Second one I’m fighting is Mishka‘s 75% off 2008 goods. They are clearing out the old to make room for the new and there are some deals to be had as well (assuming you slept on all the hot shit while it was still hot). My main focus will be these tacky snow washed jeans. They are usually $149 but are on for $37 and some change!!! Now that means one of two things either everybody slept (unlikely as the black ones sold okay) or these are really ugly in person. And while part of me wants to own $149 jeans the other part of me wants them to look awesome and worth every penny. These look so 80’s it kind of surpasses that trend-o surface level 80’s jock-age and heads into real life 80’s snow washed-ness. But for 40 clams I don’t think you could go too wrong, if anything cut em up and make them your “work” shorts for painting or hiking or whatever you goons do on your free time.
