The Anniversary Issue is Coming!!!

Can you believe how time flies? As of September 2009, PoorLittleRichGirls will celebrate it’s first birthday! It has been an absolutely fabulous year of style and savings and we want to celebrate the occasion with something special. So, for our first Anniversary Issue, we’ll be bringing you the best of the best (and affordable) the city has to offer.

Well, technically you’ll be bringing it. We want all you PoorLittleRichGirls out there to tell us your fave places to score a deal on everything from purses to pizza. Over the next few weeks we’ll be asking you to vote for your picks in various categories, but first we want to add your nominees to our list!

Below is a listing of all the categories up for voting in our inaugural Anniversary Issue. We are looking for places where the average PLRG can get a real bang for her buck. So, even though that boutique carries the hottest new clothes…if a cotton tank top costs $88, we’d rather leave it of this list if you catch our drift.

To nominate a restaurant/salon/boutique/etc. please send an email to info@poorlittlerichgirls.com with the subject line “Anniversary Issue.” You can nominate in as many or as few of the categories as you like, we just want to get your input!
