Target $0

I am a little disappointed in my Target trip this week.  Target had some really great deals this week, but one of two things kept happening to me.  Either the coupon was regional and my coupon inserts didn't have the coupon or I had the coupon, but my Target was out of stock.  Anyway, I guess I can't complain about getting Hefty storage bags and Always pads for free!

Hefty One Zip storage bags
$0.97 (17 ct. gallon bags on price cut)
- 1.00 (11/1 RP;  Note:  I had 50 cent ones in 2 of my inserts and a $1 in the 3rd insert.  Go figure.)
= free

Always Infinity pads (18 ct or less)
$3.99
- 3.99 (FREE box mailer coupon from Being Girl sample)
= free

Total OOP = $0

Felt Turkey

I made this felt turkey the other day and S has really enjoyed playing with it even though I still need to add google eyes!  S is still a bit young for color patterns, but we have named the colors and counted the feathers. 

Let me know if you know a cute rhyme to go with our turkey.

Bubble Wrap Fun

As you begin to receive more packages in the mail during the holidays, make sure you save your bubble wrap for some rainy day stomping fun!

OUR FIRST GIVEAWAY!!

I am so excited to tell you that we have our first sponsor- Gaddy Nipper Crayons!  Nichole makes the most precious crayons from hand poured molds.  They make great stocking stuffers, gift tie-ons, and party favors.

She sent us a sampling of some and we love them!  We received some cars, numbers and a holiday mix.  They are the perfect size for S's little grasp and don't break as easily as regular crayons.

S had fun "driving" his cars along some roads I drew.  Then he had fun scribbling all over them!  Older kids would enjoy drawing in houses, signs, trees, etc. 

Now for the great news-  as our first sponsor, Nichole wants to send one of my readers a free set of 9 Silly Swirls Holiday Crayons (photo at top)!

7 Preschool Games for Less Than $4 at TRU!

S is too young for these, but I couldn't resist such a deal.  I will either save them as gifts or they would also be great for a Christmas toy drive this year.  Of course Memory I will keep for matching!   Here's the deal at Toys R Us:

Preschool Milton Bradley/Hasbro Games $3.99 Each

• Candy Land
• Cootie
• Chutes and Ladders
• Don’t Break The Ice
• Hi-Ho Cherry-O
• Ants in Pants (I did not get this one)
• Memory

Buy $25 in Hasbro games, get a $10 gift card
Submit Hasbro Rebate of $2.00 per game
 
7 games ($3.99 each)= $27.93
- $10 gift card
- $14 rebate ($2 per game)
= $3.93 (or 57 cents each!)
 
*Note 1:  My store let me buy 6 games and included the tax towards the $25, but others haven't been as lucky.  So I actually bought 6 games for $1.94 (that's 33 cents each!).
 
*Note 2:  You can't buy multiples of the same game for the rebate to work.
 
Also, if you only wanted Memory, you could buy it for $3.99 now and fill out the $2.00 rebate so that the final cost is $1.99 (still a good deal since these are noramlly priced at $10 each).

If you are new to my blog, we are currently giving away a set of Gaddy Nipper Crayons here!
