Target's 70% off Toy Clearance!

By -
I was on the mission for the Walgreen's Free Stayfree Pads in the current ad but my 20 coupons and I kept hitting empty shelves. Have no fear -- I have rain checks at 4 different stores for 4 of them! I was hoping to have them for the Personal Essentials Pantry of our church...and WILL get them, just not this week, LOL!

Since I was in the neighborhood of our local Target, I thought I might hit a price match. No such luck, they don't carry the 14 count but DO have the 18 count for $2.89. After that $2.00 coupon came off (limit of 4 per transaction) it was still a decent deal so I popped 4 packs into the cart.

Then, Miss Sarah and I perused the toy clearance. Target usually starts to clear out summer toys mid July and we found some bargains!

The Brave Crown/jewel set was $12.99 and marked down to $3.88 - it is safely tucked away for the Disney trip - as she will have a complete ensemble for her Princess Character Breakfast.

My supply of things for girl gifties was getting a little low - Zoobles to the rescue!
Yes, on sale for $1.78, from $5.99 - we got three packs.
Those critters need a home too - and it comes with one!
Marked from $7.99 down to $2.38, again - we got three.
That is THREE gifts for under $5.00 each!

Let's add a few toy cell phones - Princess, of course
Yup -- down to $.88 each.
They are in plastic baggies so customers couldn't pull out that little tag and
kill the batteries while "testing" them.

Let's sum this all up:
4 Stayfree packs
3 Zoobles
3 Zooble homes
3 phones
1 Brave accessory set
1 Icee Lip gloss (dang that dollar bin...)
- I used (4) $2.00/1 coupons
$24.60 - including tax.
I saved $53.56 and am ready for more of those birthday parties!

They had TONS of things for boys too!
Keep in mind - it is NOT a good deal if you don't have the money for it in your budget.

Cookie Exchange Parties are SO MUCH FUN - for a few simple reasons:You get together with your friends You make only ONE kind of cookie and finish your holiday baking, after swapping out You get new recipes You often have snacks or games! That being said, I do one every year - in December, about 2 weeks before Christmas. (You can read about it HERE or see a TV segment I did on it http://youtu.be/-iUR7GlAiQw ). I thought it would be fun to have a collection of 30 fun recipes to try - one a day in November - so you can be prepared for that holiday baking!

I know this sounds strange -- and yummy at the same time, LOL You need to know the family history to "get it". We are part German, part English, part Irish and part Tennessee Hillbilly. Seriously. Did you ever see that black and white movie of Gary Cooper's called Sergeant York? Yes, my family comes from the Dyer/Yorks -- same family. Some of the "family recipes" are too far out there for even me to try... But this is a pot luck favorite. SUPER Easy and SUPER Easy to make healthier. We choose the middle of the road option, LOL You need:  1 package hot dog buns (8 ct) 1 package hot dogs 2 cups chili (or 1 can) 2 cups shredded sharp cheddar cheese "fixins" That's it! You could do gluten free or whole grain wheat buns, turkey or tofu dogs, vegetarian chili, vegan or light cheese, you get the drift. We do white buns, cut them up and place in the 9x13 pan, like you see here: Then you dice up the hot dogs
