Walmart 6/24

I haven't really been a Walmart shopper lately, but I decided to go and get some good deals that I read on some blogs. So, my mom, Haylee and I all set out today and got some ok deals. It is so much easier to go shopping when my mom is there to take care of Haylee! I was hoping to get some other things, but the prices were different at our Walmart than what I was reading on others blogs. Anyhow...this is what I got:

Trop 50 Orange Juice $2.66

-$8.87

Schick Disposable Razors $1.97

-$.03 MM!

In our move I have seemed to lost my make-up bag and am still unable to find it three weeks later! I bought this make-up to either get by until I find mine or start my new collection. I know it is extremely cheap for make-up but we'll see how it works! My total before coupons was $57.24 and after coupons was $28.12. This was a savings of 49%. The cat food is what drove my cost up, but we needed it!

And now for a picture or few of Haylee. I just took these tonight. It's hard to believe that she was 12 weeks old yesterday! She is very close to rolling over and when she can't do it, she gets very mad. Needless to say I have a very upset baby every time she is on the floor trying to roll over. It's also amazing how many people say that she looks just like me. All of my family says it, but even when we go to the store, completely random people constantly say how much she looks like me!

She is actually smiling in this picture. She is such a sweetheart when she smiles and talks! It's definitely my favorite :)

Target 6/22

I know it has been forever since I have done a post about my shopping, but today my mom and I went to Target to get some good deals and I wanted to report. We are also going to CVS here in a little bit so depending on how I feel later, I may post again about what deals I was able to get there. But for now, here is a picture and the breakdown of what I was able to get today! It was hard to get it all in the picture, but you can get the idea :)

-I am confused on this one because as I look at my receipt it looks like this was $2.99 when they are usually around $.97. When the cashier was scanning the coupons and couldn't find it, I told her they are normally around $.97. She plugged that in and said she didn't want to look for it. But, under this on the receipt is also a $1 MQ and I didn't give her one for that as I don't think it even exist. Oh well, so I think I paid $1.02 for this although it was supposed to be free!

It has been a long time since my last post because of the move back to Nebraska. I have still found plenty of time to go shopping and get all my free and cheap things though! I love it when I check out at Target and the cashier gives me an "impressed" look when he is done with all of my coupons! I love it even more when I get home and Jason gets excited about what I get. I have to admit it took him a while to come around though :) Here is what I bought at Target:
