Deals and Steals

Thanks to Kimberly T. for her donation of stuffed animals and filler items for the boxes! Got to pack some of them today!

This week I did a good amount of shopping around, and heres what we found:

A 12-pack of Candy Canes at the K-Mart in Oconomowoc, $.10 a box on clearance, and, they dont expire til the end of 2011-the boxes are being shipped December of 2010, so we're good to go(: We bought 2 boxes, but will be going back for more.

A 4 (or 5?) pack of pens, from the Target in Delafield. These were originally $1.00 a pack, but all the "red dot" dollar items were 75% off-so, $.25 per package of pens. We bought 8 of them.

A 24-pack of Mainstays washclothes from the Walmart in Delafield (various colors), for $4.00...they are great quality, not to mention they were less than $.17 a piece...at the dollar store, you usually only get a 2-pack for a dollar, if you're really lucky, a 4 pack. What a deal!

I also was given coupons for crayola crayons...BOGO...so, it evened out to $.42 a box...which to me is still pricey, seeing as how during the "back to school" sales at Walmart, they are only $.25 a box!

I think thats all for now, other than I will note that if you have an extra dollar or two, pick up a few boxes of toothpaste at the dollar store (or if you find them cheeper somewhere else(: ) as we have 14 already packed boxes that still need toothpaste, and a whole lot of boxes left for the year(:

Hope yall have a great day tomorrow!
