I LOVE TARGET!

Yesterday my friend Sarah and I went to Target. I had some gift cards that were from Christmas & I was very antsy to use them! John said I could use my half of them and we shopped away! I love Target! It is so chic and much better priced than say Pottery Barn or Crate & Barrel! (although I love both of those stores!) I guess I have been on a decorating kick lately. This is probably because I watch HGTV all the time and totally get inspired. Anyway, I found some really fun stuff and here are some pics of the things I got. I also just added some decorative floral paper to our "remote holder" and our headboard in our bedroom. The headboard is not done yet but you get the idea...I need to actually apply the paper on it and I can't decide whether or not to do all of the panels or just the center one! What do you think? I thought this was a fun and temporary cheap change! I hope everyone has a wonderful Sunday! : ) Oh and the last one is of Carlyle just waking up from sleeping in her "box."

WHAT A DEAL!


I always ♥ me a good deal! I have been clipping coupons lately and I try and apply them when I go shopping. Sometimes I forget to bring them or they don't work on what I'm getting etc.. but today I decided to go to Target and apply some of these coupons. I saved $14.08 today with my coupons! I got a bunch of Goldfish Crackers for only $.79 each with the $1.00 off coupons that I printed online. I got a bag of Chex Mix, 2 packages of Granola Bars and 3 different Cereals and some lightbulbs. I also got some white rice and some Rice a Roni type stuff. And my guilty pleasure was 3 bags of CADBURY MINI EGGS!!! These eggs are of the devil! They are so delicious! I had a $1.50 coupon off 3 bags of them so I got 3! ; ) I spent $29.34 Total! Not too shabby! It's kind of a pain clipping and finding coupons but it's totally worth it when you end up spending less! GO ME! Thanks to my friend Lisa who inspired me to use coupons!
