I don't usually walk down the toy aisles after christmas sales, I didn't know they clearanced so many items. This year after my friend who has mastered the art of target shopping had mentioned the toy section, I decided to check it out. I found paw patrol mini figurines form $2.99 down to $0.88. These work great for car rides for my children, I love storing little toys in their backpacks for them to find and play with on road trips. Also, spongebob lego figurines also down to $0.88. My son loved building them. It says for ages 5 and up but my 4 year old was able to follow the instructions and build the kits. I found a guess who knock off game for $1.50. I haven't opened it yet but I do believe my toddlers will enjoy playing this game. Would love to hear what great items you found this year at target.

Burt's Bees deals and review

I love shopping the sales right after christmas. This year I found a burt's bees mani/pedi set for $3 from target, yay! I am using a mac for a change, not sure how to post the picture. So instead I'll attach a link at the bottom for you to see. I've never purchased anything from burt's bees. I've been using the set for a week, and I love it. I am a big fan of peppermint which is what the set smells like. It comes with a pedi brush, and cuticle cream, hand cream and foot cream. The cuticle cream makes nails look amazing!! I used them both on hand and feet. I loved the stone on the brush. I used it yesterday on my foot, it really gets rid of rough spots. And the lotion did wonders on my super dry hands. Even my feet felt amazing! I do recommend this set. Luckily for Burt's bees since I tried this set I will now purchase these products! http://www1.macys.com/shop/product/burts-bees-mani-pedi-set?ID=2479459&pla_country=US&CAGPSPN=pla&CAWELAID=120156340004132637&catargetid=120156340000910546&cadevice=c&cm_mmc=Google_Beauty_PLA_PLA-_-Beauty_Bath+%26+Body+-+GS_Burt%27s+Bees-_-79841945066_-_-_mkwid_ybhmkYaA|dc_79841945066%7C-%7CybhmkYaA Also, I did try the burt's bees mint cocoa lip balm. That smells bad and tastes bad. I thought that would be a nice combination, but I don't like it. It was clearanced to $0.89. My daughter actually likes using it so it won't totally go to waste. http://www.burtsbees.com/Mint-Cocoa-Lip-Balm/792850894549,default,pd.html

So here's the millionth attempt to get back into posting back on my blog. It's been tricky with life but here we go. In the last few months I have opted to GWR the Sunday paper and figure out couponing. It hasn't been as easy as extreme couponers made it seem. Attached is a picture of my free items from couponing.

recycled gift bag

Here is a cool youtube video of how to make your own gift bag out of newspaper. How cool would it be if you got a paper in a different language. I would love to see a bag made our of Arabic, Korean or something like that. It would be even cooler if you could find aged newspaper.
