I am so pleased with my first deal post!!!! I got ALL of the items in these pictures and I only spent about $19.50 out of my pocket!!!!!!!
Mariah and Brinlee's birthdays are around the corner and so the after Christmas sales are the best time to start shopping for it. Since they got beds for Christmas from Santa, I decided to get them sheets and comforters. (Right now they sleep on a waterproof mattress pad with an old quilt for covers).
The bed in a bag set was originally $139.99 at JC Penney. (It's for Mariah, I'll get Brinlee's later) It was on sale for $59.99. The valance orig. price was $34.99 on sale for $17.49. The sheets orig. for $30, I paid $14.99. I got them all for "free" because I had so many credits and gift cards to Penney's that we received as gifts for various occassions.
original cost = $204.98
total spent = $0.00 ($92.47 spent from credit not originally from our money)
total saved= $204.98
The princess game was originally $19.84 on sale for $9.98. I used a credit that was not from our original money to pay for it. 2 of the Barbie sets at Toys R Us were originally $25.99. I used one of my R Us Rewards cards in the amount of $15 on one, plus used more of the credit that was not from our original money to cover the other $10.99. I used another R Us rewards card in the amount of $20 on the other one and used the last $0.43 of the credit and spent $5.56 cash on the rest.
original cost = $71.82
total spent = $5.56 (no tax)
total saved = $66.26
While I was the mall making a return to Gap, they wouldn't validate my parking unless I spent money, so I went in search of something cheap that I could get to have instead of throwing $2 away on parking. I found my favorite lotion scent (Sweet Cinnamon Pumpkin) at Bath and Body Works on 75% off (the very last piece of the seasonal scent left). It was $2.37!!!!!
original cost = $9.50

I went to Target in search of a cheap Hello Kitty rug to match the bed in a bag that I got for Mariah. She really wants a Hello Kitty room and since I have this aversion to characters on things, I will give in to a couple accessories. I didn't get a rug, but they still have quite a bit (2.5 aisles) of their Christmas toy clearance left (the Van Mall Target, FYI). I got 2 HSM doll sets marked down to $4-$5 dollars from $22.99.
original cost = $45.98
