Awesome Shopping

Today was a fun morning. Laura, Wayne's sister, came over with her twin 2 year old daughters this morning. She came to babysit Isaac while I ran to Gymboree and bought her girls some clothes. They were having an awesome closeout sale on certain items today. I'm all about getting kids clothes for great prices. I wish I could be a professional clearance shopper...haha! I always tell people that you can totally shop at Gymboree for less than Walmart if you just pay attention to the sales. Heck this sale was cheaper than shopping at Goodwill! For example, this is what I bought today:

- 22 shirts
- 4 pairs of leggings
- 2 pairs of pants
- 1 set of hair bows

My total........$112.76!!!! The retail value of these items exceeded $500.00!

I had a great time shopping for the girls. I wish I could have gotten more items for my own kids, but the massive sale was only on kid girl items...no boy stuff at all. I got Lindsey about 4 shirts and that was it. She doesn't really wear much from Gymboree these days. She's getting too old for most of their styles.

Isaac has done much, much better the past 2-3 days. I'm so thankful. The beginning of the week was filled with one fit after another, but it seems he's getting it under control again. I hope! Wayne has been working so much lately...it really wears on my nerves when Isaac is throwing tantrums all day and I don't get any help or relief.

Why am I not surprised? You sure didn't get your shopping expertise from your mother.
