Who doesn’t love a sale? Especially when it’s to the tune of 50-75% off retail. Well that’s exactly how HauteLook rolls when it comes to creating 48-hour deeply discounted sales on home items (as well as clothing and beauty stuff too). A new sale pops up every morning at 11am EST, but here’s a sampling of what was up for grabs last week:
And one of you is gonna get $100 to spend on HauteLook this week, meaning you could snag items like an $850 graphic rug for just 80 bucks out of your own pocket. Not too shabby…
Here’s how to enter:
- PRIZE: $100 towards anything on
HauteLook. ="nofollow"> - TO ENTER: Comment on this post with the words “I’M HAUTE” and…
- BONUS QUESTION: … tell us about the all-time best deal you’ve ever scored. Was it an incredible sale that landed you a deep discount? Or maybe you bartered your way to something for free?
- GIVEAWAY CLOSES: Wednesday, October 20th at 8pm EST
- NUMBER OF WINNERS: One
- PRIZE SHIPS: The United States
- USUAL STUFF: One entry per e-mail address is permitted. The winner will be selected using random.org and announced on Thursday as an update to this post. That’s right, come right back here Thursday morning for the announcement of our winner. Good luck…

I got on craigslist one day, hoping to find a round drop leaf table- the very first thing listed under the furniture tab was a drop leaf pedestal table for $50! Called and picked it up immediately!!

I never score good deals because I’m not patient enough to wait for things to go on sale!

The best deal I’ve ever scored was a matcing side table
for $35 on Craigslist. It was such a steal :)
Bridget says

Love going to garage sales and scoring awesome digs :)

The best deal I think I’ve scored is these great rugs, there were four in a set and someone returned them because they had a tiny litle snag on the side. The rugs went for 600 dollars and I bought all four for 200. :)

The best deal we ever snagged was a solid wood door – already painted white on one side, black on the other, without any holes drilled into at Lowe’s. Lowe’s doesn’t usually allow you to return wooden doors, but somehow, someone did, so they were like “How about ten bucks?”

The best deal I have ever gotten was when I found the IKEA bookshelf I had been pining for on the side of the road, waiting for me to take it home and enjoy it, just two weeks ago.

Jamie says

Lisa says
I’M HAUTE… one of my best deals ever was the Lenox Jubilee Pearl flutes we used at our wedding reception… regular price, $58, found at TJ Maxx still in original box with padding and everything, for $8.99. Score!
Lara says
I’M HAUTE! Because I always seem to be able to spot the great buys and wrangle a bargin on the things I really must have – such as the box of rhinestone costume pins I just scored to use as christmas tree ornaments (30 of them) for just $2!!!!
paula says

Snagged a great kids bedding set on clearance after keeping my eye on it for a few months.
Kim says

The best deal I’ve scored to date was a pair of Tory Burch sandals. They were missing a grommet so I was able to get a pair that normally cost $300 for $20. Go me!
Liza says

I’ve never scored an unbelievable deal on anything, but all the little deals that I get add up quick :)
Christy B says
I’m Haute!! The item I buy typically goes on sale AFTER I’ve paid full price for it…hence, why I usually leave the item in the bag for a week or so after I’ve bought it :)
Meghan says
I’m Haute. I once scored a $200 Calvin Klein dress for $50 at TJ Maxx.
Tab says

the best deal I scored was the house. We got a House worth 400,000 for 198,000. It was a short sale and took 8 months to close but it was so worth it.
Kari says
I’M HAUTE!!!!!!!! I scored a sunburst mirror at homegoods…exactly what I was looking for!!! :D

I score great deals by using freecycle. One man’s trash…
Natalie says

By far the best deal I’ve ever gotten was our honeymoon package. My husband and I were part of hosting an auction for our local fire department, and one of the items was a 7 night stay in the Caribbean. Everyone knew it was for our honeymoon, so NO ONE bid against us. We ended up getting a 7 night stay in St. Lucia at an upscale resort for $80. That’s right – eighty bucks! All we had to pay was airfare and food. Even better, when we arrived at the resort, they upgraded our room to a three-floor sweet with a private pool and outdoor hot tub since it was our honeymoon. Score!!!

I’m Haute…..sometimes Haute-y!!!
My fav haunt is Goodwill/thrift stores…but I’m always on the lookout for a find.

I’m sure I’ll think of something much better after I leave this comment, but I was quite pleased with the deal on our Ikea couch. It’s black smooth leather, exactly what we wanted, was on sale for under $400, and then my handy husband made square black wooden legs for it to replace the cheap-o metal tube/plastic capped legs it came with that didn’t even match! That small upgrade made it look like a much nicer couch – the grey metal colored legs screamed “IKEA,” but the thick black wooden legs make it look like a regular old sturdy, pricey couch, and they’ll last for years, whereas the plastic caps on the original legs snapped in half and fell of the first time we moved it across the room!

I got a brand new 46 inch Sony Bravia LCD TV (Eco Model) for $400 after applying coupons I found online and selling the packaged Sony Play Station 3 on eBay.

The best deal we got involved purchasing our entertainment center, 8×10 handmade rug, and 2 table lamps for dirt cheap at a going out of business sale- it was awesome!
Val says

Most of my best deals are on clothes…I once got a velvet blazer for $0.99 (and not at the good will!)

A few months ago I found a Singer sewing machine at Tuesday Morning for an incredible deal. I love that store…

Best deals are freebies on the side of the street or off craigslist…:)

I love finding a good deal! The most recent one: over a year ago I found a frame at Hobby Lobby that I loved but it was $45. Fast forward a year: I found it on the clearance aisle for $8 and I had a gift card. Yes, please!
Sara says
I’m haute! My best deal recently was a great, solid wood dresser and mirror set on craigslist for $50!
Katie says

Okay, I have two recent finds…I just got my husband a mandolin for Christmas and it only cost me $50!!!! And my husband and I have been searching for tables to put outside when we have holiday get togethers, parties, etc…well we just got two nice wooden tables off of craigslist that will come apart for storage when we aren’t using them for $40 bucks…WOO HOO!
Stephanie says

One of my favorite recent steals is a $39 5×7 area rug for my front foyer. I got it at the Frontgate/Ballard outlet near my home. I love it!!
Erica S says

Either the $10 chair for our bedroom that I love, or a score of an oil painting and two vases at a flea market for $5. I’m always on the lookout for a good deal and I love hautelook!
kel mcnichol says
I’m Haute!!! I am always about a good deal, good value, good sale. It does pay to look around and be informed on both what is trendy and what something is “worth”. In retail language everything is marked up so much for profit…anytime you can bring the price down by about300/400% you are doing well.
I was at a boutique furniture store and saw way in the back, pushed off to the side was a chest of drawers. A couple of the knobs were missing and there was a corner on the bottom that needed repair. The original price was 500. They had it marked down to 250. I negotiated with them to bring down to 50 if it did not sell in 2 weeks and I would pay cash. I also threw in some homemade brownies. In 2 weeks I came by with the brownies and asked if they would sell and I would pack it up and take it off their hands. They did!

I’ve been a big Craiglist shopper – our vintage glider on the back porch could be a fav. It was a good deal and in great condition! We use it every day.
Jen says
I’M HAUTE!! My laptop gave me the blue screen of death a couple weeks ago…and I replaced it with a computer from the computer recycling center for $75 DOLLARS! C-R-A-Z-Y!

2 years ago I found a giant Pottery Barn framed mirror that retails for over $200 at a local closeout store for $4.95!!

I always score big deals at Kohl’s. Never buy anything full price!
Jillian says

I must admit… I’m not much of a deal hunter. Not enough patience for it. Maybe some day though!
Angie says
I’m haute. I’m pretty good at being patient for a good deals. Just remember, there’s always something out there you’ll love more.

I’m a huge fan of haggling for a great deal…I even managed to talk down Lumber Liquidators on my $.99 sq/ft flooring and underlayment…it was quite a personal accomplishment!
