Shopping Deals!!!

Well, I have been doing WAY to much shopping lately! Mostly for kids rooms and my babies, but just a little for myself too! I am not one to turn down a great deal, even if it's something I don't "really" need, which can be bad sometimes! Here are some of the awesome deals I scored this past week!


Spent the afternoon at the Pottery Barn Kids Outlet...big mistake...I wanted to buy Everything! But I did pick up this bookshelf for baby boy's new room...You can probably guess what the theme is going to be!  And they thankfully had one that was still in the box so I didn't have to buy the display! $169  (I can't find it online anymore, but I think it's original price was $299)


Another Pottery Barn Kids Outlet deal... Originally $19.99 Each, I paid $5.99 Each


Also ventured over to the Children's Place Outlet... Got 16 items for $64.  Used a 25% off coupon from their email list, also had a $30 giftcard, so ended up only really spending $34 for everything pictured! Even some cute new baby boy outfits :) 


Brown Storage Basket from Home Depot.... $5.00 each! Bought 4 of them! 



The real reason we went to Home Depot was to purchase a closet organizer system for Alissa's new room.  I found this Closetmaid Suite Symphony Laminate organizer from Target.com that I really liked, looked easy to install and was close to what we wanted to spend ($119).  However, last week I went to purchase it (not available in stores, only online) and they were charging $54 to ship it!!! I was not paying $54 for shipping, so I kept looking. Found it on Closetmaid.com for $115 and $18 shipping, but when I went to purchase it the next day it was no longer available! Their website tells you where you can purchase their closet products which is Home Depot! So we went to Home Depot and wouldn't you know the same exact closet organizer was $89!!!! And we didn't have to wait for it to get here! Woo hoo! We used the $ we saved to buy some extra shelves to go with it! 

Also stopped at Sherwin Williams to pick out paint for both kids bedrooms so we can finally start painting! Lucky for our us, in our Sunday paper (that I only get for the coupons) they had 25% off paint, 15% off paint supplies coupons! We used both, and paint was cheaper than we had budgeted for too (And the nice guy working there gave us an extra gallon that he tried to color match for us, but wasn't quite what we wanted) 


And of course something for ME! Became a Fan of Coupon Divas on facebook a few weeks ago and last week they posted a great deal on New Balance Running Shoes! I just got a cute new pair of WHITE sneakers for Christmas, and within one day of being around my dogs they are muddy! So when I saw dark colored sneakers, I thought it would be a great idea! I got them through Coupon Divas from Joes New Balance Outlet for $29.99.  Only tried them on, haven't worn them yet, they are comfy so far, fit perfectly, are really light weight, but the mesh material is really thin and they probably wouldn't last real long if you are an avid runner.  Thankfully, I am not! 


I definitely spent more time than I should have on the computer looking for deals and running to a million different stores, but it definitely ended up saving us money!
