Seeing that today is July 1, I figured I'd start a new thread for us to post our purchases this month. 
I technically got this yesterday, but seeing that I'm posting it today, it'll be a "July" purchase.
We went outlet shopping yesterday and hit the Chicago Premium Outlets in Aurora, IL and the Lighthouse Premium Outlets in Michigan City, IN. I am happy to report that I got my first true outlet steal. The Michigan City outlet is fantastic and I was amazed by everything they had. They had one of the extra large orange straw baskets on the clearance rack (like the limited edition one that came with all of the perfume print goodies, except it didn't come with the accessories)! I'm not really into those, but I was shocked to see it there.
ANYWAY, I picked up a black leather Carly wristlet out of the clearance bin and got it for $56!! It was the only one in there and it had no tags on it. I asked one of the SAs on the floor for the price and she said $69.99 and 20% off that. So, I took it to the register and the SA looked it over and wasn't sure what to do. I told her what the other SA said and she walked over to confirm it. She then asked her manager who said $128 (which is retail) and 20% off that price. She told her manager the price the other SA gave me, took that SA aside and talked with her, and said to the SA at the register, "I guess we have to give it to her for 20% off $69.99 then."
I also picked up something for my RAOK buddy while I was there.
I'll post a photo of it later when my camera battery is charged up. I had to get a new battery this weekend so I am temporarily without camera. Here's the stock photo:
