Kelee, so sorry to hear about the stock you had to throw out, looks like a good time to look through all you do have. I think with the new house and the space you will have you'll be able to keep track of things a lot better.
My best wishes to you that all goes well from here on out.

Monday March 22nd

OK, it is not a good week to get free or cheap.
I went to Target today and bought my Grandkids 2 board games. Monopoly and Connect 4. After sales and coupons I paid $2.00 for both of them, so for a buck each, I consider it a bargain.

I did go to the one thrift store in downtown Schenectady, since I was down there anyway seeing my little one.
I splurged $2.69 on one of those pretty mirrored trays for my dresser, it's the girl in me.
Bought a large bowl with different color roses on it for $2.50, will match dishes I have been collecting slowly from thrift stores.
Bought a complete set of tupperware canisters in blue for $2.69
Also a lilac colored crocheted baby blanket with pastel colored trim on it for $2.99 beautiful workmanship on it.
That was it.

Well at Target I did walk around a bit, can't refuse looking at those red clearance tags for some reason.
4 - 12yd rolls of Gorilla tape duck tape for $1.24 each, regularly $4.99 each, wished they had more.
2 - 3/16" x 100' Clothesline Cord with storage holder on clearance for $3.40, only had 2 left.
9 - Strawberry Jell-O were on sale for 42 cents each and I had $1.25 off 3 coupons, so 1 cent per 3, or 3 cents for all 9. might go back for more, unfortunately they only have strawberry flavor.

Tuesday: March 23rd

OK, it is dangerous having me home alone for a week.
I stopped at the thrift store, now you really have to wonder why so many people do not like afghans, home made with love by someone. Well I just picked up large one with a ripple stich for $2.99, to tell the truth, I doubt I could buy a skein of yarn for that. it has greens, gold and yellows, a nice subtle hue of each.
Also found a Better Homes & Gardens Barbeque Book, copyright 1965 for 99 cents
A "More Lap Quilting" Book for 99 cents

Then I went on to Target:
3 Monopoly games for $2 each, Regularly $15.00 each, one to keep and 2 to give away.
1 Connect 4 game, regularly $14.something, FREE after coupons
4 - more rolls of Gorilla Duck Tape for $1.24 each, regularly $4.99 each
2 - bottles of Gorilla Glue for $1.24 each, regularly $4.99 each
3 - boxes of Betty Crocker cake mix for 50 cents each, regularly $1.68 each
5 - tubs of Betty Crocker Frosting for 50 cents each, regularly $1.68 each, got to love sales and coupons
4 - Rubbermaid Roughneck Totes $4.88 each on clearance, regularly $9.98 each
