It's a...You can buy Target brands as low as $0.99 @ Marc's Discount Stores kind of day!

Who knew you could shop for Target clothing at other discount stores [In N.E. Ohio or Connecticut] that is! This lovely pair of Mossimo yoga pants was $1.99

These amazing black straight-legged Mossimo dress pants were $4.99

These amazing activewear/dryfit/racerback with built in bra tops were $2.99 [I bought 3 in very inviting bold colors/designs]

These stylish Mossimo Light Vintage Wash skinny jeans were $0.99 cents!

These soft durable colorful tees were 2 for $0.99 cents - [I bought 10]

I noticed one day while in Marc's [which is a discount closeout/grocery store] operating approximately 60 stores throughout Northeast Ohio and Connecticut, that the brands I was looking at were Target brands. I then proceeded to visit every Marc's within a 40 mile radius of my house, they all had different discounted Target brand items. I shopped in amazement. I take a trip every two weeks to find out what is new and as these stores are locally owned and opererated in N.E. Ohio, I don't share this juicy little tidbit with my friends, unless they read my blog of course! They also carry Target shoes, but not at all Marc's locations. If you're ever in my hood, I will direct you accordingly. Have a lovely day! LocalCeleb~

It's a Botanical Garden Ripe Fest type of day!

Today Mr. Parks and I *rushed* to attend the Cleveland Botanical Garden's Ripe Fest (remember the tickets I won to this tremendous culinary event?) We arrived and it was delightful. We purchased homemade maple syrup and delectable little cupcakes, walked around clicked some photos and were off.. You see we are partaking in The Akron Marathon Relay bright and early tomorrow morning so unfortunately we had to bypass the wine tasting tent..I wanted to die..I'm infatuated and light weight in love with wine.. So.. I pouted.. the entire way home.. Mr. Parks did remind me that this event is 3 days long so.. there's still a chance for us to enjoy the festivities if we make it through tomorrow's jaunt.. stay tuned.. and wish us LUCK..
