I've admitted it before -- I'm not a fan of shopping.  I just don't have the shopping gene.  But these sales may get me to flip the script in the coming days! Old Navy -- Up to 75% off in stores, and up to 50% off online!  Ends 12/31/12 Forever 21 -- 30% off til 1/2/13 Amazon -- Up to 70% off clothing and accessories, 60% off electronics, 50% off kitchen wares and movies, 40% off toys and games .
