Yesterday we went out for the day. We ran some errands first before we met Mom at the mall. We had to pick up some pea gravel for Michael to put around Zena's kennel. Hey, we have to have some fun while we run errands.
We also ran to Walmart, where we picked up some hair products, Magnesium, Fiber One cereal, Wheat Thin crackers, and I picked up some things for myself with my birthday gift card from my Mother-in-law.
We then popped in to Kmart, where I bought two candles...I love this kind.
Then, we went to the mall, where we met Mom. We shopped in American Eagle (the boys found some great stuff, but American Eagle prices are just too much), Christopher & Banks (where I purchased some pants for church and going out--I needed some badly, and I had a couple of coupons), and JC Penney (where I purchased Cam a flannel shirt for $7.00--with a coupon, and I purchased $240.00 worth of shirts for $85.00). I was desperately in need of dressy clothes. I always wear yoga pants and tank tops and t-shirts and sweatshirts at home. I have lots of t-shirts and yoga pants, but not much in the way of dress clothes. It was time to purchase some. I tried to find the best deals I could and use lots of coupons.
Below are some photos of what Jar and I told Cam to do...while I was checking out all my stuff. I think these are hilarious!!
Here is what I got yesterday...I got 11 shirts and sweaters for $85.00. That is basically $7.75 per shirt. That is cheaper than a thrift store. WOW!! I also got 4 pair of really nice pants and jeans for $100.00 (that is also a steal...especially since it is difficult for me to find pants that fit right. And usually I have to pay $12.00 per pant to have them hemmed also. These pants all fit perfectly...length and all)
We then ate lunch in the food court...we had not done that in ages. Michael met us there too. It reminded me of when we first moved here, and we would meet Michael quite often at the food court. It was a lot of fun.
Thank you, boys for helping me to find all of these clothes. You were really helpful and patient.
I'm glad you were able to find get some outfits that you like--and have the boys be your critics. And I agree, it was great having lunch together at the mall...it brings back memories of when the boys were little and we'd meet for lunch.
