May you always look good, and still manage to save a little money. If you know that being well-dressed doesn’t require a thousand dollar budget, read on about these 20 signs you’re a shopper with expensive taste and a cheap budget.
1. You’ve learned to limit your price range when online shopping so as not to tempt yourself…

Nordstrom Rack and Marshalls are two personal favorites.
5. The best time to get discounts at your favorite stores is engrained in your memory.
