So much for my plans of not buying anything this Thanksgiving weekend. Many people spend more time planning their purchases than how they spend their time with their families during this time of year. I actually loathe Black Friday shopping. I think it's stupid how on a day where you're suppose to be thankful for everything you have and then before dinner even started you go and buy even more.Although I haven't done any brick and mortar shopping during Black Fridays in years, I'm not immune to their online sales.
I really wasn't planning on buying anything this year, but on a trip up north, I realized my daughter has outgrown her winter jackets, so I hop on to Carters.com to get her one. But oh no, there is a super cute sweater with a dog on it... It's sooooo cute! And added to the cart it goes. Oh, can't leave baby brother out, even when he's still in the womb. Gotta get him some shirts too.
Total spent at Carters.com $50

Got some emails that I 'forgot' to unsubscribe to. Damn you hollar.com and your cheap prices. They had a 40% one item. But free shipping starts at $25. I'm actually am pretty excited about these two purchases- the packing cube and storage boxes.
Total spent at Hollar.com $26

We visited my parents up north, while cleaning her kitchen cabinet, she asked if I've found the vegetable seeds she lost. She went crazy looking for it... turned out they were the kale seeds I bought her. So I immediately hop onto the good old internet and got her some. They were having a 35% off sale and I totally did not know until I check my email. I later hop back on to buy some herb seeds.
Total spent on seeds $6
It's the season to be giving right? So I've been on the look out for super deals. If I see a good deal that is too good to pass up, I will buy and donate. I actually found a few that I felt the store was loosing money on. But I guess their lost is my gain. I bought a few fleece blankets for maybe the homeless or will be donating them to a woman and children center. I also found some great deals on dog beds. I bought a total of 6 from two different deals and stores.
Total on fleece blanket $16
Total on doggie beds $30
We actually had rain this pass weekend, and the weather dipped into the low 50's. I don't have any long sleeve sleepwear and decided it's time to buy some. Ultimately I ended up on the Old Navy website, everything was 40% off and an additional 20% off I believe. But free shipping still started at $50. But guess what, on Cyber Monday, they had 50% off plus free shipping and a free gift. I'm still piss off about that.
Total spent at Old Navy $58
I also bought some diapers and wipes from Amazon, they were too good of a deal to pass up and my baby is not potty trained so I better stock up.
Wow, so my total for this weekend was $401. That's just me on one credit card, my husband bought a few things too... probably another $50 worth. But next year, we'll do better, hopefully.
