Well today I left with a little guilt, but the guilt was gone by what I accomplished by 2pm. We left at 9:10 to be at the theater by 10am, made it their with a little time to spare. Regal cinemas are offering $1 movies this summer, yes $1!!!! So I spent a whooping 3 bucks!!!!! Across the way from our Regal there is a glorious ColdStone and I had a coupon!!!! The tweebs were very happy, so was my wallet, $3.15 later!!! We then ventured to Toys R' Us with my daughter's birthday card from them, which had a $3 gift card in it, which she spent wisely, which I will share in a moment.
Then to the mall.....oh gosh this will hurt, I'm thinking. Though part of me says do a little school shopping now then it won;t hurt as bad in a month right???? Well, I was right.
My 11 year old son that is the size of an adult, and costs me a fortune to cloth, was very proud when we walked out of the mall. He scored Hollister jeans for $10, American Eagle Tee for $7, and 2 Aeropostale shirts for $4 each, whopping total of $25. If he could do carts wheels I'm sure he would have!!! Instead he said Mom thanks for my clothes, I love them! (which is better in my eyes)
My 8, soon to be 30 daughter made out a little less better but still decent. We ventured into Justice, which yes I had a coupon, so to the back of the store we went. Clearance take an extra 40% then I had a coupon take 40% more, not bad, her total for a pair of jeans and a really nice plaid button down shirt for a total of $17.Today's total $48.15, for a little fun, a little food, a few clothes, and no guilt!!
Now for my daughter's shopping, she purchased a plastic farm set with animals, fences, and trees. She came home, got a shoe box and some craft supplies. She proceeded to the driveway and made herself her own farm box complete with blue skies and dirt!! Love her imagination!!!
