half-priced pinkberry!


when i think about dessert, my heart always says yes but my thighs say no. luckily there's pinkberry, a guilt-free way to indulge in some sweet and healthy goodness. even better, they now have a "happy hour" promotion good every weekday from 5-7 pm, when everything's half off! that's one deal my wallet and stomach can agree on.


elizabeth & james-like feather ring for $5!


the real thing ($150)


and the look-a-like ($4.80)

quick & simple 4th of july cocktail


so besides finding thrifty deals, cheap bitch likes to drink. and what better way to celebrate our country's birthday then with this recipe for the "hydrate" martini, courtesy of the liberty hotel in boston. it has only 3 ingredients (thank god), because cheap bitch likes to keep it simple.

to make:

2 oz. organic cucumber vodka ($26)
2 1/2 oz. pureed watermelon (
$9.99)
1/2 oz. fresh lime juice (
$2.39)

shake it all up, strain into a martini glass, and drink up!


also a plus, this drink has only 135 calories ;)


$4 movie tickets!!!


i'm a huge fan of e-mail discount groups (groupon, living social, blackboard eats) and just stumbled upon a new one this morning. please welcome kgb deals into your mailboxes, for today they're selling movie tickets to any amc theater (regularly priced $12.50) for $4!!!

acne-ish wedges for $28? yes please!!!


so i, like the rest of the fashion community, fell in love with acne's pre-fall '09 atacoma wedges.


what i didn't fall in love with was the $480 price tag and their sold-out cult status. but thanks to forever 21, there's a very affordable alternative for $27.80!


snatch up these babies now while you can, for i predict they will be selling out VERY soon.
