Cheap Target Clothing

Today, I read this message on facebook:

1. Go to Target.com
2. Add 3 pr of Mossimo Supply Co. Juniors Bootcut Jean - Medium Tint Wash
*note you must order this particular style for this deal to work, but you can order any size you wish - doesn't have to be 3 of the same size
3. then look under junior tops look for the ones that say buy more save more (try to stick to $6-$8 options to optimize the savings.... the BEST deal is to get two $6 shirts and one $8 shirt thereby bumping your pre-discount total just over $50 which qualifies you for free shipping. If you don't go over $50 pre-discount it'll charge you shipping)
4. Then use the code TGT75HFN for $5 off this is a one time use code and you have to be logged into your account.
5. The total for 3outfits (3pr pants, 3shirts) was $11.58

The above are the steps that people are following. I am not 100% clear what is knocking the price down so much (eg i cannot pinpoint the exact wording on the website for the promotion), but when you go through the checkout process the internet promotions will automatically knock your price down to the $12-$14 shipped range for the whole order. Two cautions - 1. Rumor has it these jeans run SMALL. So if you are unsure order up sizing wise. 2. As with all true fantastic internet deals this will go fast. The jeans will be bought out in popular sizes and the cheaper shirts will also sell out quickly. So if you need some new clothes (or have a pre-teen/teenage) daughter that needs some jump on this sooner rather than later.

 

 

I went in and did this, my total for 3 pairs of jeans (I ordered for my daughter, they were out of my size) 2 shirts for me, and 1 shirt for my daughter for $14.83 shipped from Target. I did not have to add any promo codes- as soon as I added all 6 items, it discounted my deal by over $40.00!

Can we say CA-CHING for Christmas?

Goodwill Run

Last week, I had about an hour to kill, and had to go to Dollar Tree to get glitter for my Reindeer. Driving there, I go right past my other favorite shop- Goodwill. We have such an awesome Goodwill. It's clean, it's staffed by friendly people, and best of all, there are actually 2 shops.

Shop 1 is a regular Goodwill with regular prices. Shop 2 is our As-Is center, where the prices are deeply discounted. It brings in items from 15 area Goodwill's that don't sell on the first try in the regular retail shops.

I digress. I had just about an hour before I needed to be at the meeting point to pick my older two kids up from school. I could explain why there is a meeting point, but really, I would simply be digressing and getting off point.

I decided that if I spent 20 minutes at Goodwill, and 20 minutes at Dollar Tree, with a 5 minute drive between Goodwill and Dollar Tree, I could get to the meeting point on time.

I am SO glad I stopped in. My first stop was the As-Is center, looking for sweaters and whatever else I could find to use for crafts. I found a gorgeous Angora mix pale pink sweater. It was too small for me, but would make a soft, warm hat for my niece Alex for Christmas.

I also found a stool, brand new with tags from Target on it. The original Goodwill tag said $19.99, but because that side is a discount side, I got it for $3.29! It did have a crack on one of the spindles between the legs, but a little glue, and some weight on it for a night, and the crack is glued together nice and tight.

Better yet, when I looked the stool up at Target.com, I found that a 2-pack retails for $99.99! I got 1 for $3.29! I love it, too.

On the other side, I found a few small things, nothing big. A tub for craft storage for $.99, a Christmas coffee mug to send my Grandpa in Florida, and a Garfield mug from McDonalds from back in the 80's.

As I stood in line, I saw a big gold basket with what looked like craft items in it, all taped shut. I left my cart in line, and looked for a moment. It was marked $2.99, and I could see wire garland, wooden objects, and tea light candles in it. I decided to hedge my bets, and grab it.

I figured at the very least, I would use the basket for Christmas. It's painted metallic gold with some glitter on it.

When I got home, I realized just what a treasure I found. It was packed down with all sorts of craft items.

 

 

 

 

 

1 bag of wooden stars, retail $.59
3 Christmas Frame Ornaments, retail $.99 ea
1 Bag Sparkly Pom Poms, retail $2.99
10 Assorted Wooden Spring Clips, retail $1.49 ea
An assortment of partially finished & unfinished wooden objetcs
Handful of unburned Tea Lights
1 Gold Glitter Basket, retail $4.97
1 Wooden Trinket Box, retail $1.49
1 Bow Maker, with original instructions
1 Wire Garland, retail $1.00

I am so excited with my find!

To give you an idea on the size of the basket, I used it for our Family Movie Night Christmas gift. It has 2 1-Liter bottles of Jolly Rancher Soda (1 red, 1 green), 5 movies, 2 bags of candy, 1 jar of unpopped popcorn, and 1 popcorn seasoning. It's a BIG basket! I want to add a big bow to the front of it, though.

If I were to have bought all the craft supplies full price, and the stool full price, it would have cost me at least $80.  Instead, I got all of it for under $10!

For those of you out there who don't check out Goodwill for the good deals, you should start!!

Cheap Disney Blu-Rays!

I'm excited by this deal, and even though I don't think we need them, I must say- I want them!

At Target this week, apparently, some of the Blu-Ray copies of UP are on sale for just $19.99. This is not the 2 disc set, which is listed in the ad for $22.99. Monster's INC is also on sale in Blu-Ray form for $19.99, again, not the 2 disc version.

In addition, Disney has a coupon for $10 off UP on Blu-Ray, and $8 off Monster's INC on Blu-Ray. Now, the Monster's INC one is for upgrading from DVD to Blu-Ray, so you do need to input the UPC code from the back of your current copy of Monster's Inc on DVD to get the $8 off coupon.

Then, to sweeten the pot, Target has a coupon for $10 off if you buy BOTH of the movies together. This means that in the end, you'll get both movies on Blu-Ray for only $11.98- under $6 each!

Good Luck!
