Awesome Deals Steals This Weekend

We are in the process of doing some makeovers to some of the rooms in our house, as well as doing some switching of rooms. The bedrooms are on the list of getting a makeover, they are long overdue for one. Inspire by the My Dear Trash blog and the challenges that are always going on, I wanted to give myself my own challenge of doing the makeovers as inexpensively as possible and paying for it as much as possible with money I earn on the side, e.g. Craigslist, Ebay, writing....

Hmmmm...where was I going with this...







Oh yeah!! This weekend I visited a store called Surplus City and scored unbelievable deals for our makeover, including bedding for comforters w/ matching pillowshams for two of the kiddos...

Cute Manly grey and black Batman comforter w/ matching pillowsham for............drumroll please...............$2.49!!!

One of my smart shoppin' lil' ladies found herself a very feminine pink bedspread w/ matching pillowsham for...................wait for it...............................
.....


$1.99!!!



I know right!!!!


The store was having an awesome sale..all purple stickers were 90% off. The hunt was on for me, I searched high and low for these few and far between purple stickers.

I managed to find another boys comforter w/ sham that I will sell on Craigslis.

I found a set of glasses for a whole $1.69 - we needed these so bad!!! Also found a landline phone with bells and whistles for $2.29 - we currently only have cordless at home, I figured we probably needed a landline too. I found a really pretty ivory window scarf for $1.XX that I am probably going to use to make a couple of throw pillows for the makeover in our family room.

Another Great Deal @ Target...

Since I am starting my own Biggest Loser diet tomorrow, I needed to stock up on healthy, low cal food.

Target has Wight Watchers Smart Ones meal and desserts on sale this week for $1.89. Purchase 10 and you get a $5 gift card. However, I noticed on some of the frozen meals there was a $4 off when you buy 10 peelie... so after the $5 gift card and the $4 coupon they cost .99 each!!

Hidden Target Deal....

I found at the two Target stores I went to adorable pajama sets in the toddler section that were ringing up 75% off. The brands are Just One Year - Carters and Nick and Nora. Below are pics of the patterns I purchased for our two year old for next year. They are Christmas themed which I am sure is why they are on sale, however, in the older kids and adults, Christmas themed pajamas were clearly marked clearance, but not at such a reduced price. The infants and toddler are marked full price at $14.99, but scanning for $3.74. Take a look below....
This one is really a deal, you get two sets of pjs for $3.74..

My two year old loves cats or meow meows as she calls them, hopefully she still will next year!

The bottoms on these are a very soft flannel... so adorable!

The original price for this one was $8.99, so I scored this one for $2.24!!


So if you have an infant or toddler in your life that you buy for, check it out and get a jump start for next year!!!

***HOT*** TOYS R US HASBRO GAME DEAL...

I went to Toys R Us after reading a post from Kaley over at Cha-Ching on a Shoestring about how I can buy seven Hasbro games for .56 each!!

Here is the deal I did...

For $3.99 each, I bought

Chutes and Ladders
Candy Land
Don't Spill the Beans
Memory
Ants in the Pants
Cooties
Hi-Ho Cherry-O

I received a $10 gift card for spending $25 or more on Hasbro games, will send in for a $2 rebate on each of the above listed games to Hasbro ( the rebate form can be found online here or you can find them at Toys R Us in the board game section.)

So my final total..

$27.93
-10.00 gift card
-14.00 rebate money

TOTAL $3.93...divide that by the seven games and you get .56 each (this does not include tax)

Bring on the family game nights....after Christmas of course!!

If you already have some or most of these games or maybe you don't have any young children, this is perfect for Toys for Tots too!!!

Another reason to love Target...

They now price match! I "heard" that rumor but have now seen the sign first hand myself!!!

Speaking of Target I got a couple of AWESOME deals there over the weekend. First off in case you were not aware Target will allow you to use a Target coupon + a manufacturers coupon, that together is great! Anyway here are my two deals of the week...

Chef Michaels dog food (1.5) on sale for $4.29, used a Target $1 off coupon and a $3 manufacturers coupon. Final cost = .29, I did this deal 3xs.

Schick Womans Intuition Razor on sale for $8.29, used a Target $4 off coupon and a $4manufacturers coupon. Final cost = .29, I did this deal 3xs as well.

I love these free or almost free deals!!!
