I was DONE Shopping!!!

So how is that I go to Boise and still spend a hundred bucks at the Christian Bookstore on stocking stuffers?!?!?!

Egads!

Granted I got some GREAT deals and most of my items were $5 or less so I stocked up on things I like to have on hand for those "Uh, Mom.... I forgot I need to bring a gift to school tomorrow...." or "Uh, Mom.... I have a birthday party tomorrow and forgot to tell you." So, some of my finds will go into my slush fund. I love my slush fund. It's so nice to have things on hand for those gifts that will be just perfect for _______. You can't beat a $5 CD or DVD when it's regularly $15!

And I got a couple bigger items, like a really cool Bible for Melynda! Shhh! Don't tell! And a little something something for my hubby. And a little something for my mommy. But don't tell her either. And a little somethin' for my kids... but it all added up!

The good news? I got 25% off my total price, saving me a total of $150 after sale, clearance and 25% off! How rockin' is that?

And, keeping with my vow, I did NOT charge anything today. YEAH!

Cabelas, REI, Sears, Williams-Sonoma, Christian Bookstore and


Starbucks! Thanks, Mom!

Is this picture of Roy reading to Javier not the sweetest?!?!

Now, we're off to a play called "Bethlehem Inn." What a fun-filled day, I've had!

P.S. Would you call me crazy if I told you I already have some gifts bought for next year?!?!?! What can I say, it's how I roll. ;)

  1. Javier is so sweet -- I can't believe they've gotten so old so fast. Clyde has a baby sister so we're busy as bees over here. I thought I'd check in and see how your family was doing and it looks like you're doing well. Laura (& Clyde & Alice)
