an eye for bargain (6) updated 7/23/2011

two weeks ago, i snagged a lot of cheap & free stuff from target which i posted here. i thought my bargain hunting for the month was over. then last friday, i had to get groceries at aldi's. well, target & aldi's are just across from each other! yahoo! yes, this mommy won't just drive by & miss out on any good deals. i'm glad i did & this is what i got....

TARGET

> a pair of kid's sandals - $3.24 [75% off]

> 2 room essentials pillows - $0.50 each [after $2 tpc]

> 2 wet ones - $1.49 each [after $0.50 tpc]

> 3 up & up pantyliners - $0.14 each [after $0.75 tpc]

> 2 2-pack sharpie markers - free [after $1 tpc]

> 3 scotch scissors - $0.99 each [after $1 mic]

> 5 scotch magic tape - free [after $1 mic]

> 5 cherokee jeans for kids - $2.00 each [after $2 tpc]

> 4 10-pack papermate pens - free [after $1 tpc]

is this crazy shopping or what? i'm perfectly happy with all my target finds!

also, earlier that day, my little angel & i stopped at oakwood mall. she played a little bit in the children's area. but before that, i stopped at three stores & got these items on clearance sale....

OLD NAVY

> girl's leotard - $5.49 {she'll be a ballerina for halloween in november}

> 2 piece ruffled bikini - $4.99

JC PENNY

> girl's summer dress - $7.99

> girl's summer dress - $6.79

> girl's rompers - $3.99 each

MACY'S

> white boot leg skinny jeans - $3.99 {i bought one a couple of months ago for $5.59 & i thought that was already a bargain!}

 

> junior summer shorts - $6.99 & $8.74

finally, patience is indeed a virtue! after stalking macy's handbag area for months now, i found a tyler rodan bag that was marked down to 80%! i only paid $17.80. big score! it wasn't in the color that i originally wanted {white was my choice but its still $65 - not within my budget}. however, i bought this for functionality. it serves as my everyday handbag plus diaper bag. my days of lagging two bags are definitely over!

so there goes my happy & fruitful friday day last week. i'm keeping my eyes open all the time. what bargains will i find next? hmmmmm....
