My total savings today= 328.81 +


Its my birthday and I went shopping for me. Since it is my day and all! I’m 24. No milestone but it was worth a few things for me to celebrate. So I got a water bottle, nail polish, bra, fuzzy socks, a book, 2 pairs of shoes, a skirt, 2 pairs of jeans, 3 shirts, and a few things for Cas. I got him 2 pairs of slippers, 1 pair of shoes, Snow pants, and 3 shirts. 20 items for 123.19. That to me is GREAT. I don’t feel like I went crazy. My most expensive purchase of the day was the 2 pairs of shoes… but I got them for 22 bucks a pair. And they will last me for years. So its worth it. My cheapest thing I got today .50 cents and that was a shirt for Caspian.

Yesterday was not so good of a day. It had its highlights, but there were more lows to its highlights.

Today before my shopping trip, this is how it began. We woke up and got ready. I made lunches for both of us. Then we went and ate breakfast (I had a coupon for a free breakfast sandwich). And we enjoyed ourselves. Then I had to drop Shawn off at work. And Cas and I headed to the outlet mall. In hand I had my 20% of Tanger Coupons, and $15 off my $50 purchase at old navy birthday coupon( I also knew they were having a 40% off everything sale). Waan’t sure what I was looking for but I know I found a lot of good things.

As for the rest of my day. After shopping I let cas nap in the car while I read a little. Then I talked to my mom for a few. Cas and I headed in (a little disappointed in no birthday cards in my mail today, but Courey’s save the date was there) and scoped out the great deals that were made. Figured out our savings, and are chilling out. In a few I am going to heat up some Potato soup I made, and eat. After we get Shawn we are going to stop at Starbucks and redeem my free birthday drink. So today is and has been a good day.

Then for tomorrow we have AMAZING plans. We are going to see Water for Elephants. As well as get free coffee at Starbucks and Caribou. Then get free reusable totes from the Disney store, and free face wash from Macy’s. Talk about AWESOME. Then I have to go fill out paper work at my new job to make it official. And maybe go to the Pirates game (and get a free shirt and free reusable coffee sleeve) . It will be a full day.

My house might be a mess… but its my birthday so I will forgo cleaning today and tom . Saturday however is a different story.
