Hello After Christmas Sale!

I heard the angels singing alright, as soon as my fat ass got out of bed and shut my alarm off.

Yes. Today is the day after Christmas.

Now when I was a kid, I didn't care so much about December 26th. But as an adult, it's my new favorite day of the year.

It's the day that I get to wake up early, drive the streets at 6:30 am while most people are asleep in their beds (wisely, I might add...not to mention....less people to be in my way when I'm looking for deals) , get my very rewarding cup of coffee at Starbucks and find a relatively good spot at Target, eagerly awaiting the doors to open at 7am.

This year, I had the priviledge of going with my friend Debbie. I don't usually get a friend to dare to wake up that early, but this year we went together and I saw the benefits of working in a team. That means, we had rotating "cart watch" shifts, 2 extra pairs of eyes to look for the "must haves" and someone to watch your back if some crazy deal whore starts getting an attitude. I did see quite a few people going in pairs. Like I said, it works. We managed to find plenty of great stuff. My favorite things to get are the holiday greeting cards of course. I got each box of 18 cards for $3.49. And I like them. LOL See, for me, deals aren't just about a good price, it's about liking what I'm getting too. I don't buy things just because they are cheap! LOL

Anyway, fun was had by all and I spent my usual amount, but at 50% off, that just means I didn't spend double that amount. My husband has to be happy about that. ;)
