Thrifty Thursday -- Bath & Body Works, Card Games, and Kohl's Clearance Rack!
One of my best friends came in town this week from Chicago. She wanted to stop by Bath & Body Works to get a gift for her mom. I said, "Wait! I have coupons!" (Of Course)...
By combining the awesome $3 anti-bacterial soap sale with the coupon I had for an additional free anti-bacterial soap, I was able to pick up all 5 of the soaps in this picture for only $12 plus tax! That's more than half off the original price, since they usually sell for $5 each. =) I don't buy Bath & Body Works very often, so this was a splurge for me.
I also stopped by Target to finally take advantage of some of those Hasbro game deals!
I got both of the Pictureka games for only $.24 each, and the other two games for only $1.24 each! I paid a total of $4 and some change. Not bad, considering all of these games are normally priced at $5.24 each! These make great birthday gifts!
Last, but not least, I stopped by Kohl's to grab a birthday gift for my sister-in-law. I can't post a picture of what I got her, because she reads this blog. But it's safe to say I got a great deal on her gift. She'd be proud (she's very frugal as well)! I also found 2 jackets on the 80% off clearance rack for myself.
I rarely buy any clothes for myself, but when I do, I am extremely choosy. I won't pay more than $5 for a shirt and $8 for a pair of pants. Some people call me cheap, but that's just my price range of what I can afford. Clearance racks at Kohl's are my favorite. I usually hit up the 80% or 90% off racks, and stack a coupon on top of that. Tonight when I went, I had a 15% off coupon with me.
With the coupon and clearance price combined, I ended up paying only $6 each for these jackets! The black one was originally $40, and the pink one was originally $34. That's a savings of $62!!! Now that's my kind of shopping...
