This year the deals that I found on the weekend leading up to Christmas was pretty amazing. Though the reports on the economy state that only 7/10th's of 1% was the increase for Christmas shopping I think they left the Detroit market out. Reason being my inbox was blown up with savings and my pocket book couldn't handle it. With that being said I think the deals were amazing and the best personally I have seen in years. Here's what I picked up:
Cracker Barrel is known for their food but the little general shop upfront. I needed a padding set for my rocker I got for the baby but couldn't find anything I liked. Low and behold they had them for $20.00 so I picked one up. Funny though they had barely any Christmas stuff.
After there I ventured to Target because I was on a mission to find an outfit to bring my daughter home in. The baby section kind of sucks. But I did find a bookcase I bought to do a project via Pinterest and it was 20% off.
Being pregnant you are bombarded with coupons from Babies R Us, never liked the store until now but I cleaned house. Everyday leading up to Christmas it was a different door buster sale. On Friday I got a case of wipes for half price plus found four outfits because of the buy one get one free sale on Carter's. For under $40.00 I got four new outfits, and a case of wipes. Not too shabby.
Then the best for last is Ulta. they were running if you buy 2 OPI nail polished you can get a holiday nail polish for free, in the shade I was looking for perfect! Eh not so much, they were out of it but as a oops were sorry they gave me 20% and honored my 20% off coupon so I got 40% off my order. Plus I found all my gifts for the baby shower on the clearance cleaning up better then I expected.
Now that Christmas is over the deals are piling into my email account but they still are not as good as what I found the days leading up to Christmas. Did anyone else notice this trend or just me?
