Last night I scored some Halloween craft sets for 50% off (2.48), scotch masking tape 85% off for .24 a roll, and some other buys. With the way these stores are marking down holiday items before the holiday, they are eliminating the need for day after shopping. Of course i'll still go, but i wouldn't have to :)

I found 2 wooden supermarket sets (play wonder brand) that come with a bunch of wooden food. It has bins for the fruit, shelves, a canopy and a chalkboard. These were originally $59.99, but scanned $14.xx. I checked online and apparently Target.com is out of stock, but had upped their price to $79.99! I guess it was a good deal then!!! I picked up the only two I saw, one for DS and one for my friends kids for Christmas. Also got a DIY Room bookcase originally $59.99 for $14.xx. Found some rugs and sheets for 75% off too. Overall a great day at Target. Oh... and how could I forget the boys PJ's for $2.98!!!

Finally I get to post my great 75% off deals on school supplies: $3.98 Sharpies (24) 4 packs $3.48 Pilot Precise V5 roller ball pens (14) 4 packs $1.03 96 Ct. Crayola Crayons- 2 packs $1.74 44 piece Crayola Washable set- 2 sets $.07 college rule loose leaf- a case $.25 10 packs of notebooks- 2 cases $1.18 20 ct. Bic mechanical pencils And a bunch of other random stuff! I am one happy Mom right now!!!

Finally one of my St. Louis stores dropped all school supplies to 50% off. I got some pretty good deals for arts and crafts time for my son. I also got a good deal on some Dora and Diego Color Wonder sets. They came up "item not found" so the cashier said to name a price. I said $2.99 as not to take advantage and she said ok. They should have been almost $8 a piece to begin with. They'll be good for stocking stuffers.

I had great luck with the shoes. I got 4 pair original prices $60 x2, $70, and $90 for $51 after tax. I am set on heels for work. No one can beat a Dillard's sale.

I got the greatest deal ever today!!! I am so excited. I got a Maclaren Quest Sport Stroller (a return from the internet) regular price $224.99 for $39.98!!!! It was marked that the original price was $79.99, so they took half off of that. Boy were they wrong! The real kicker is Target.com still carries it for $224.99. I'm just happy my little guy is only 19 months and can still use it.

Thanks... got a $240 bedding set for $57.xx! Now my guest room is complete.

I am so excited... I have really made the Target rounds with this toy and bulk clearance. I have done quite well with toys (finally scored the Diego Tough Trike for $5.xx) but bulk had been a bust until this weekend. The highlight was the Pampers and Huggies wipes originally ($13) for $4.50 after coupons. My little guy is set!

I'm really disappointed! I went to Target in tonight after work and the Play Wonder is still only 30% off. I scanned some items, but no such luck. Oh well, maybe next week. I tried the same thing with the Thomas chair (Item not found), but they eventually found the price. It was $69.99. Great deal to the person who got it for $7.xx.

I visited two stores in St. Louis last night, Ballwin and Chesterfield Valley. Chesterfield had nothing (some bulk items 30% though), but I did pretty well in Ballwin for boys in the 2-4 range. Overall though I was pretty dissapointed. I did snag a dinosaur manga doodle, Fisher Price Dino that lights up and makes noise, Aquadoodle foam mat, some wooden cars from the play wonder assortment, a nice Scrabble game, and a Scoop carrying case from Bob the Builder for 75% off. Oh well, I cleaned up after last Christmas so i guess I can't complain!:)
