Yesterday, I revised an article I wrote and emailed it off to the editor. And I cleaned the kitchen up. Other than that, I ran around. I went to WalMart in the morning (mostly for groceries and some other small things), then home for lunch. In the afternoon, I ran to Target and Kohl’s, stopped at Kroger to buy the one thing WalMart was out of that I really needed (cranberry-grape juice…yummy!), then headed home. Karen stopped by to drop off something for me to take to Cedarville today, then I made dinner, and Eric & I did some running around, too. We went back to Target to return a couple of things (see below) and then to the LaZBoy store to see if we could find a new recliner for Eric. We did, but we probably won’t buy it until closer to Christmas. Then home, got online (again, see below) and bed!
And now…the receipt game! From Target yesterday:
- Denim pants, size 18 months: $6.99 (these are for Holly’s Christmas present)
- MM Mint candy: $2.00 (I just
these, and they only come out at Christmas) - Trouble, the board game: $9.74 (this was going to be for Erik’s present, but he no longer needs games for his classroom, so I took this back last night)
- Brad Paisley’s Christmas album: $11.98 (I’ve wanted this for a while, but I’ve only seen it at Sam’s…and it was cheaper at Target, so I broke down and bought it!)
- Chutes and Ladders: $4.94 (Kelly loves this game, and it was cheaper than at WalMart, so it will be part of her Christmas present)
- Tall black boots, size 5: $24.99 (I bought them for comparison with the other pair I bought earlier this week. With Karen’s opinion (she’s my style guru
), I decided to keep the Target pair and return the Penney’s pair. Unfortunately they didn’t fit exactly right, so I returned them last night, hoping to find another pair at the other Target (I bought the only pair at the first Target), but no such luck
. Therefore I ordered them off the Target website when we got home.)
And thus was my day, yesterday!
I love the receipt game! It is such an insight into people’s lives. I can’t believe you comparison shop so well! In our life, it is not an option because
a. there aren’t many stores around here, and
b. there is not enough time!
Last I heard, we’ll be making candy that day with Erik’s parents. Of course that could change. . . who knows.
We’ll either be baking at my house or my mom’s. To be determined still.
I will definitely look for that Web site for you!
In some magazine the other day, I read about a Web site for people with little feet, and I was going to tell you, but I forget. I’ll try to remember to look it up sometime.
Oh, good, I’m glad they were online. They looked cute. I figured that they would be. That’s the nice thing about online shopping – you can usually get the size you want. Usually, being the operative word.
At least you’re getting the boots after all! I probably wouldn’t have thought about ordering them on-line – you’re so smart!!
