Weekend Accomplishments & Coupons

Gotta love when Mom & Dad come to town! First, they brought me TONS of needed stuff, like cleaning supplies, organizers, kitchen tools and wine + O glasses. (Awesome!) I think my mom spent all day Thursday shopping for all my essentials - thanks Mom!

As a housewarming gift, they took me shopping on Saturday at Bed Bath & Beyond, World Market & Lowes. (I hate shopping so much, so it helps to have them in town to make me go. We are a very efficient team!) Here they are with the receipt from BB&B. This includes $250 in savings & 16 coupons used!
Check out my car... fully loaded. :)

Next, my parents were lovely enough to buy my dining room chairs at World Market - ones that I'd been pining about for months. Thanks to a sale + my mom's 10% off coupon + a gift card, we saved $230! Kinda makes you feel better when you drop so much money at once.

Last, we hit Lowes to look for pendant globes, a vanity light & window treatments. We were successful on the dining lights - bright blue of course - and I saved $50 thanks to a 5 year old gift card I found in a folder.

So... to recap... lots of stuff was accomplished this weekend. Lots of $$$ was saved. I still have a LOT to do. And, as always, my parents are awesome!
