First Birthday Scrapbooking Kit for a buck!

Parkside Dollar in South Park, PA had these adorable first birthday scrapbooking kits for just a dollar. I picked up several for that price. My friend had her guests sign the Happy Birthday page with a special message for her daughter, Emmy!

Penelope Mack Dresses for $ 5.00

I found these adorable little girl dresses with matching doll dresses on clearance at TJ Maxx and Marshalls. I picked up a set for my best friend's daughter. When she saw the Penelope Mack label she was so excited! I had no idea things were high end boutique dresses. I just thought they were cute and incredibly cheap.... at $ 5.00.

Have you shopped at Tuesday Morning?

Before visiting family and friends, I made a pitstop at one of my favorite stores: Tuesday Morning. I call it the "High Class Big Lots." This is one of those stores that you never know what you are going to find and you need at least an hour to scan all the aisles.

Best items to shop for at Tuesday Morning?
Toys- especially educational toys, books, puzzles - All the big names: Fisher Price, Melissa and Doug, Disney, Leap Frog

Photo Frames- I do not buy picture frames anywhere else anymore because you cannot beat these prices.

Kitchen utensils and specialty items- Before I head to Bed, Bath, and Beyond donning my 20% off coupon, I always check here first.

Collectibles- Madame Alexander Dolls, Precious Moments Figurines

Scrapbooking- Kits, Albums, Paper, Stamps, etc

Baby Items- Clothing, shoes, blankets, bibs, specialty items, hats, baby bedding


Today's finds at Sewickley Location:

Precious Moment Figurine 11.99
Fisher Price Bunny-in-the-Box 9.99
Carters Bucket Hat 2.99
Carters Memory Foam Sandals 3.99

Guess Purse $ 20 bucks!

I have a mild obsession with purses. But since I never carry a purse more than a month or two I cannot see spending a fortune of them.

Here are a few of my recent purse finds: I found this HUGE purse in black at Ross Dress for Less on clearance for under 20 bucks!

Since this handbag is almost as large as a small suitcase it was neccessary to finally purchase a Purseket organizer. I scored my on ebay for under 18 for both the medium and drop in sizes.

If anyone is considering buying a Purseket, I would definately say go for it! I love mine and do not know what I did before it. It holds all of my stuff and makes switching purses a breeze!
