Super Savings Saturday

Wow, this week went by fast! I did not do much shopping this week as we are pretty well stocked up for now. However, I can't seem to refuse a good deal on clothes for the kiddos. This is what I found at Walmart for London:

The skirts were each $1.00
The t-shirt was marked down to $3.00
and the cute jacket was marked down to $6.00 (a little more that 50% off).

I had been eyeing the jacket for some time now hoping to see it drop in price. Last week it was marked down to $9.00. There were still plenty left on the rack and these jackets will probably see another markdown but there were only a couple left in London's size so I thought it best to grab one before it was too late. All items were purchased in next year's sizes.

I didn't hit up CVS this week with any coupons or ECB's. I'm going to wait and see what next week's ad looks like. I did poke around in the store a little bit today (hey, I was without the kids and wanted a little "me time" - what can I say? Me Time at CVS is better than no Me Time at all, am I right?) Anyway, I was thrilled to find two cat beds for only $5.99 each!

Okay, if you do not have a dog or cat and have never had a reason to shop pet beds, let me tell you, this is an awesome deal! These two beds are large, cushy and made of super-soft material. Purr-fect for fur-babies Slinky & Willie to snuggle up in and catch some kitty ZZZ's. These beds would have sold for $25 or more at PetSmart! Just for the fun of it, I checked out kitty beds at Walmart and found beds half this size for almost double the price.

So, you see, CVS rocks the deals even without using coupons and extra bucks. Oh, wait! I did use a coupon. I had a $3 off any $15 purchase so really I got these for $4.49 a piece! WooHoo! It just keeps getting better & better.

Wow! Those clothes are cute!
I don't think my WalMart has those!

And, good for you, to keep your eye out on that jacket and waiting for it to be marked down more.

Sometimes it's just so hard to wait for those deals, isnt' it?

Those clothes are awesome. I will have to check mine out. How do you know what size your daughter will be next year? That always confuses me. My girls are wearing 3T now. They are 3 1/2 years old.

You deleted your blog?? Yikes! I'm glad you are back.

Still wanting to get with you on the CVS tutoring. Maybe after my mom leaves town.
