Christmas Shopping?? Yes I did!!!

Who would of thunk it?? Not I. Only I was able to do that this weekend with Charlie and now I am done. Stick a fork in me well done. All I have to do now is wait till it gets closer and listen to what he wants Santa to bring him and go and get it. You see I went to Kohl's this weekend to pick up some clothes for him for a event we had to attend. When I got there they where having a three day sale. So I picked him up some clothes and a blouse for me too. My blouse was supposed to be $30 but I caught it on sale for $13.

Our total bill was $175 and all we spent when she was done ringing it all up was Drum Roll Please $75.00 and you take the $50 Gift Card I had gotten for Christmas we only spent $25 and I ended up with a shirt and Charlie got 3 shirts, underwear and a pair of jeans. I did good. So good. Pat me on the back good.
 
Only that is not the icing on the cake I went to the Disney Outlet store yesterday and I walked into a clearance sale on all of the cars items. If you know my son you know Charlie is obsessed with Tomater and so I was able to get all of his Christmas from David and I. Yahoo one person done and many more to go. I also did get my mil a Coffee Cup though as well.
 
So here is what I got with the prices and sale prices as well.

I think this is Pretty good as it is going to allow me to take a min vacation with my son.
We will be booking a hotel for 2 days to go swimming.
 
If husband gives me these kinds of incentives then I may just have to start to use 
coupons as well as I can pay for a new blog design and also another mini vacation 
for Charlie and I in a couple months.
 
As my friend Jamie saves over $7,000 in a year.
She just took her family on a Cruise to Mexico and last summer they went to Disney Land
on her savings.
 
So I am telling you I am excited and I am ready to get started saving.
