How could I have forgotten! The thing I was most excited about getting was one of the science center memberships for $47! They're usually almost $100 but the first 100 sold on Black Friday were half priced! I stayed up even though I was exhausted and checked out at 12:08am on Friday. They were sold out by 12:12 am! My kids will be really excited - we're only been once but they had a lot of fun.

The BOGO half off toys at TSC made my 7 year old happy - he went with me to pay off the layaway and pick it up and I grabbed a Schleich horse for the toddler and let him pick a tractor for the second part of the offer The RC car for $2.50 was pretty exciting, BOGO 75% off at Dollar General. Got the toddler a ball pit and the RC car was the second item.

Wish I saw this earlier, Dollar General was doing BOGO half off on their brand of batteries!

Dollar General had early activation for most of the 3 day sale items and I went Wednesday night and had the store to myself just about! Didn't go out Thursday or Friday and barely shopped online. My husband said Me canards at 3pm when he got off work was INSANE. He hid in the back half of the store for a while til that rush calmed down. Today I picked up my lone Walmart order ($5 puzzle) and on the way home from the in-laws I went in to grab milk. Most of the displays that were over $10 looked untouched and LOTS of inventory.

I haven't ordered yet but did find the $13 men's jeans finally. I was actually getting sick from scrolling so I gave up pretty quick. Our insurance premium jumped this month more than we realized so my shopping budget got cut quite a bit.

I have a few things to ask my sister to grab. $10 fan, $4 magic writer set. If someone hadn't gave me a bunch of construction trucks for the kids I would have gotten the $20 construction trucks. As long as they're decently strong plastic that's a pretty good price.

I've actually did quite a bit of shopping on Amazon the last few days with the sale prices. They actually were sales/price drops because I'd been watching! Safari LTD elephant that my preschooler told Santa he wanted from the aquarium gift shop ($45 there wasn't happening. It was $30 when I stick it on my Amazon list and dropped to $24ish) Mickey Mouse camping set dropped to $6.99 from $8-$13 (it fluctuated a lot this month) Phonics set with a code for $5 Crayola color wonder for $6. Anymore that's amazing pricing.

The used curriculum store in the city is doing a 30% off store wide sale. If my husband is willing to drive I think we might go. It's across the intersection from Bass Pro's flagship store and it is absolutely INSANE through there. It's bad enough on a regular day but Thanksgiving week- New Year I won't drive over there unless I don't have a choice! Assuming my husband has the day off anyway, haven't heard for sure yet. I need to call and see if they have what I actually NEED curriculum wise in stock because I can get in trouble in there quick lol. If they don't I'll stay home. I will be going to Dollar General either Thanksgiving or Black Friday at opening. I need to look at the ad scan again because I want that $10 robot vacuum and think it was a one day only sale price. Otherwise, in store just really doesn't interest me anymore. I used to love the crowds but I'm pretty sure I'd panic in the pre2020 Walmart DVD crowd now.

Waiting on Menards and TSC.

Not Black Friday/this year but keep an eye out after Christmas when they start switching to spring. I've seen kids coats go as low as $5 at Walmart in-store clearance and $10ish online.

The BOGO 75% off toy sale will probably get me as usual. I have several $10-$15 toys I was planning on getting there. Lowe's gift cards might happen. Depends on my husband.

Wasn't expecting this ad yet. Feel like it was later last year. Off to look!

The Track ball pit is cute and the play smoker but otherwise, not much caught my eye. We're pretty tight budget wise so most of that stuff is too much this year!

Thank you! Was waiting for this one!

Remote control cars for my toddler and preschooler and a deal on kids books. I won't get any better pricing on most of the farm toys my oldest wants. I'm buying my mom and husband's presents at TSC this week or next and I'll save my receipt in case those things go in sale
