$10 Tues(Wednes)day!

Like, woah! The last $10 Tuesday was in July. I'm hoping the holidays will get me back in the bargain hunting spirit. So far, I'm doing a crappy job - $10 Tuesday is on Wednesday. Sorry.

My loot: a long strand matte silver necklace (clearance + 20% off coupon), a long-sleeved sleepshirt (adore the stripes and the little pocket; clearance + $3 off coupon) and a super soft red sweater (sale + $4 off coupon). All coupons printed at Target.com. All items purchased at Target on 9 Mile in Pensacola.

Aside: I know the sweater is great because I already own it in two other colors. Oatmeal and what I thought was white & navy stripes. I'm wearing the stripes today and styled myself in a slightly nautical fashion - nothing overboard (ha), just silver jewelry, dark brown leather shoes and windy hair. I noticed mid-day that the stripes are white and black. Shoot.

$10 Tuesday!

Figured it was time for another $10 Tuesday, so I spent my lunch break in Target with my trusty coupon organizer. I purchased a graphic tee that makes me wanna sing Springsteen songs, a pair of black jeans (yes, I've just started to allow black jeans again for the first time since 1993), 2 cans of Suave dry shampoo, a 2 pack of gel pens and a 2 pack of sharpies. All for $7.86! I think I'll spend the remainder on a copy of Real Simple because A) I'm addicted to magazines, B) Real Simple is printed on nice paper and usually smells pretty good and C) I have a coupon for it!

Break it down now: $3 off denim Target coupon, $2 off graphic tees Target coupon, $1 off Sharpie Target coupon, $1 off Papermate Target coupon, 2 free Suave product coupons, 5% off total with Target debit card. Get the Target coupons for yourself at Target.com. See my earlier post for how to get the Suave coupons.
