"Don't you just love a bargain"...
No, I did not attempt the Christmas Tree Shop today. Although I could be a walking informercial for them and every other store that I love. When I like something, I can't hide my enjoyment. And I have to touch everything... From ornaments to clothing, I'm all about the look and the feel. I'm alot of fun to shop with - at least my aunt thinks so! She came with me today, and we got quite a bit accomplished. We have my nephews birthday party on Sunday, so of course - we had to get him presents. And she bought Christmas gifts for my daughter and my niece. I didn't buy any holiday gifts for anyone yet. That's a one-day extravaganza, and I just can't bring myself to do it yet. That's a fun, "playing hookie from work" kind of day. Coming soon....
I did, however - go to Michael's Crafts. Where I got these 4ft pre-lit entranceway trees! I can't wait to put them on my front porch - I've always wanted them, and they're normally $69.99. Can you say $29.99? I was giddy walking out of the store. There are few things in life that can me me feel "high". Getting a score of a bargain - that is one of them.I love, love, love this time of year....May all your days be merry and bright!

I do love a bargain, but I tend to avoid "Black Friday," if only because of the traffic! However, I couldn't resist running over to my local Circuit City at 8 a.m. because they had blank DVD-Rs (for recording) for only $7 for a spindle of 50. And amazingly, despite the crowds (they opened for business today at 5 a.m.--yeesh!), I actually got a space right in front as someone was pulling out and didn't even have to threaten anyone for it. :-) That was it for the shopping for me today--I decided not to press my luck any further.
(And I'm like you, Rebecca--I have a ton of shopping yet to come, but I left it for another day.)
I don't know why but, this made me smile.
I openly , blatantly love Christmas too! Love it, love it, love it!!
I love bargain shopping..hence the $3.00 shirt I bought on Friday as well. It was just hanging there and it has My Little Pony on it and it just leaped in my carraige. I don't know how that happened and yes...Coffee is needed in Dec!
I have those same trees for my front porch. Just hope they still light up this year... already had to replace other lights.
Woohoo! That's a great bargain! But I have to say, Micheals + Me = a very dangerous combination, because I have a hard time resisting a bargain!
