Flat Out Insane

One of my biggest pet peeves is purchasing an item only to find a much cheaper version a few days or weeks later.  Seriously, it eats me up, drives me to the brink of shopper breakdown. This is how I became the bargain hunter that I am today.  Before you go flat out insane from similar circumstances, check these flats out….
