Today I am thankful for good deals on, well, anything that is useful to me or my family. I used to be a crazy coupon lady, but time just hasn't been on my side the past year to find every bargain out there. Plus I realized that a lot of my good deals was only good if I got some food or supplies that I didn't really need or like. Sometimes I would donate the un-needed supplies, but usually the food would sit in my pantry for months and months until I would go thru expiration dates and realize it was WAY past the date.
So anyway, now I just look for bargains on the things that I need. Like jeans and tops. I have about 4 pairs of jeans that have holes in the knees from playing on the floor with the kiddos I work with. Then there's the 3 pairs that no holes, but they just fit weird and I only wear them when my hole-y jeans are dirty. And I have 2 pairs of jeans that I absolutely love. But laundry around here is another battle that I can't win so those jeans don't get washed as often as I need. Same goes for my tops. I have about 5 that I absolutely love and then a whole rod full that I only wear because I feel bad for them. Anyone else have that problem? Yeah, weird, I know.
So today when a kiddo got sick and canceled, I had some time to spare til the next kiddo and headed to my favorite store at the mall that I just happened to have birthday giftcard to spend:) Long story short, I was able to get a pair of PERFECT fitting jeans, a sweater, a t-shirt, and a tank top...all for $2.16 out of pocket. Plus I filled my reward card and got a $10 gift card to use on a future purchase. Yay!
Oh, and I got a free roll of paper towels at CVS:)
Love, love, love good deals!
