The One-Cent Wedding Dress

Earlier this summer, I believed that I had found the steal of the season when I purchased my first pair of Frye boots at Urban Outfitters for $40, but it seems as if another dating blogger has had the same luck – maybe even better luck than I did. Yue Xu of Singlefied was perusing the racks of Nordstrom Rack recently when she came across a true gem – a Jessica McClintock bridal gown for just $0.01. The dress has been marked down to a penny after having a retail price of $275. Sound too good to be true? Well Xu then had the manager double check on the dress for her by typing in the SKU into the register, but even after several times, the dress’s price was still just a penny. The retailer decided that they would honor the price, which isn’t too surprising to me because Nordstrom as a retailer has always had a great reputation of doing just that. Xu, however, didn’t need the wedding dress because she wasn’t engaged, but she couldn’t let the dress go to waste. She bought it for a penny and is now giving it away to one of her lucky readers.

    I went on to Nordstrom.com this morning and bought a lace wedding dress for $0.01. I am still in disbelief. I placed the order and received the receipt which confirmed the $0.01 price tag with no shipping costs or sale tax. It is supposed to be shipped May 24. I went back to the site a few hours later and the dress was removed but not before my purchase was processed! I will keep you posted as to when I receive it
