7 Days of Giveaways left, which means the Recessionista Warehouse Sale is just around the corner. You know who else is having a warehouse sale? Barney’s New York! But you won’t find deals like the one’s that you’ll find at the Recessionista Warehouse Sale! And Barney’s Warehouse Sale is only available to those who live in San Francisco, Los Angeles and New York. While Recessionista only has one warehouse (for now), you can get great deals around the clock at our shop.

In Orlando, Florida tourists take time out of their Disney vacations to visit the Prime and Premium outlets (some of the most popular outlet malls on the east coast!). Can you imagine taking time out of your vacation to shop for discounted designer jeans and handbags? I can’t! Not when I can shop online or better yet at a party in my hometown!

Ok we’ve talked enough about warehouse sales and outlet malls. Now we’re onto the stuff that gets everyone really excited!

You can still enter yesterday’s giveaway here! It will close at 75 comments or tomorrow…whichever comes first.

Today’s giveaway is…

For your first entry, give us 7 reasons why you enjoy doing business with a company. It doesn’t have to be any specific company. We just want to know about the things that make you enjoy shopping for products and services. Don’t cheat! Be sure to give us 7. And don’t forget to follow us, or you can’t win!

For a second entry, tag us in a facebook status (using @Recessionista…make sure you “like” us first) and tell us about it in the comments!

You’ll find that Recessionista never refers to our products as “cheap designer handbags” or “discounted designer shoes”. Not only does it make the goods sound unappealing, but we don’t believe that they are cheap or discounted! We believe in providing our fellow Recessionistas with the gorgeous designer bags, unique hair accessories and jewelry and incredible designer shoes that you want at prices that you can afford. With that said, let the giveaways continue. It may be free, but if it’s from Recessionista, it’s certainly not cheap!

We’re going to try something a little different with today’s giveaway. We’d like to get 75 entries for this giveaway– at least! We’ll choose the first four winners when we get to 50 comments…the other 4 won’t be chosen until we get to 75. EVEN if that means leaving the giveaway open for an extra day (or two!). If you want us to pick a winner, you better spread the word…

To enter tell us where you buy the majority of the following 8 products

• Clothing
• Accessories (e.g. hats, scarves, jewelry)
• Handbags
• Shoes
• Groceries
• Furniture
• Electronics
• Appliances

Want a second entry?

Tweet something about @myrecessionista and post the link to your tweet in the comments! Don’t have twitter? You can also tag @Recessionista in your facebook status as long as you follow us on facebook!

Don’t forget that only followers can win!

Get 3 of your friends to follow us on the blog and get them to answer the question of the day. Leave us a comment with their user names. This should be easy. After all, who can resist designer handbags and shoes and accessories galore?

* Feel free to add any details about your lifestyle that you think will help Recessionista get to know you better. Why is Recessionista suddenly so interested in you? We want to provide (and giveaway) products that fit your lifestyle perfectly!

We here at Recessionista are celebrating. We are celebrating awesome deals on designer handbags and shoes. We are celebrating looking like a million bucks in scarves, jewelry and burnout tees without having to spend a million bucks. And we are celebrating YOU–our loyal followers and fellow Recessionistas.

To show our appreciation for our loyal followers, Recessionista has two HUGE announcements today. First on the agenda…

Be sure to add your name to our mailing list so that you can get your exclusive invitation to the warehouse sale and maybe even some extra discounts. (You’ll have to sign up to find out!) We’ll be posting additional information on facebook and twitter, so don’t forget to follow us there too!

Our second big announcement, as the title of this post may have given away (see what we did there?), is that it’s giveaway time! For the next 10 days Recessionista will be giving away every day, as we countdown to the warehouse sale! Today, 10 lucky winners will be wearing scarves from the Recessionista Shop in the near future.

All you have to do to enter to win is follow the Recessionista Blog and answer the questions of the day.

Today’s questions are:

- Which age range do you fall into?

• 18-21
• 22-26
• 27-30
• 30-35
• 35+

- Do you have children?

- What do you do for a living?

- What would you like to do for a living?

Answer all 4 of these questions for one entry.

For a second entry, tell us your top 3 favorite blogs (other than Recessionista)! Don’t forget, you can’t win unless you’re following us!

The winners will be announced tomorrow!

Hello Recessionistas!

Have you missed us? No worries! We are back and ready to keep giving you great deals on designer shoes, handbags, jewelry and more. We’ve had a lot in the works during our mini sabbatical, but we are back full swing.

Over the next few weeks we are going to show our appreciation to our followers via giveaways, great deals and some exclusive invitations. Make sure you are following us on the blog, on twitter and on facebook.  (We’re going to keep you on your toes. Giveaways could happen at any time through any one of our social media outlets!)

Here’s a sneak peek of what we’ve been working on…
(You’ve always got to throw some open-toe shoes in there. You never know who lives in Florida where open toes are acceptable attire 11 months out of the year!)

We are going to be asking a lot of questions about you over the next few weeks. Our first question is: What do you want to see Recessionista give away next week? Leave a note in the comments. (With as much as we would like to give away a motorcycle to our male followers,  it’s much more likely that we’ll pick something from the shop.) Don’t forget to follow us,  as only followers can win!
