My Black Friday Purchases

Ok, so let me just start off by saying that there’s nothing exciting here.  But I got up at 5:30 yesterday morning and on the spur of the moment decided to go out and shop.  There was only a couple of things I wanted, so I ran to Walmart first.

I parked a good quarter mile away and when I got inside, I almost immediately regretted my decision.  But, I decided to be a trooper and I went and got what I had come for.  Spiderman & Spiderman 2 for my son at $2 a pop.  I actually bought two of each just in case something happens to one of them :)   I waited in line for 25 minutes, which isn’t bad considering the length of the lines and the way everyone’s shopping carts were overflowing!

So I then proceeded to Joanns to buy a little something for myself.  I got 4 Butterick patterns at .99¢ each and 3 rolls of wrapping papper at .99¢ each and a 3 pack of cellophane bags for $2.99.  I had a 20% off coupon so I spent less than $8 for my entire purchase.

Lastly, I waited until the evening and then I went back to Walmart and bought myself some fabric.  I’m making a pair of maternity pants and two maternity shirts for myself – which I so desperately need!

So, no huge purchases, but I’m happy to have spent less than $30 for the entire day with some great purchases :)

    wow only $2? That’s an excellent deal! I am finding that there are alot of great deals online as well, so I decided this year to skip the stores, and just go do my shopping entirely online :)
