Mad Hatter Invites for my Birthday Girl
I was feeling a little crafty today and needed to get Hannahs birthday invites done, I decided this year I would make them since I love the Mad Hatter theme we are doing, I cant wait til the actual party and show off some of the decor and food I am making, this has to be one of the funnest themes to do we decided to keep the colors to bright looks of citrus, orange, purple, pink, yellow with accents of zebra stripes.

Kmart Kraziness with 3 Krazy Kids before 9 am..
Okay what was I thinking all the kids were up and its a decent coupon and deal week at Kmart this week so we were there by 8:30 am my red head was not cooperating with this trip at all and so I made a few errors and I hate to pay more than what I need too. I plan to go back to Kmart maybe tonight on my own and work a few good deals I like to be able to browse and work the deals with full concentration and that wasnt happening this morning, I was sweating by the time we left!
Needless to say I still did a good haul for the price BUT it wasnt as good as it should of been.
Check out todays Haul:
(2) Jugs of those small sized Sunny Ds my kids love this and its 1.09 with B1 get one FREE so basically 54 cents a JUG.. thats a deal, no coupons but at that price I am okay with no coupons.
(1) One 3 pk Ivory soaps if you got yesterdays paper there was a $1 coupon on Ivory products .. the 3 pk is 1.79 I used a $1 coupon that double to the 1.79 value making the soap FREE which is the only reason I bought the soap since I scored some oil of olay clearance soaps last week for $2 for packs that retail for 8.47 and stocked up.
(1) Package of Ground Chuck 2.99 this also gives you a pack of cheese and a thing of buns for FREE this week no coupon needed just need to be a rewards member so thats a great deal I threw all those items in my freezer.
(2) Packs of Chips Ahoy Cookies they are 2/$4 however I have a coupon on 2 to save $1 that doubled leavingthose $1 a packet and a good deal for grabbing to take somewhere.
(1) Oreos.. ok here was an error I didnt notice until I got home these rang up at 2.50 and were shelve advertised as 2.29 so that was a 21 cents error I made.. every cent counts, I only bought these because I was buying a milk and I had a $1 coupon on them if I bought milk so making then what I thought was 29 cents but ended up being 50 cents..
(1) Milk .. because we always need milk so I might as well work in my Kmart shopping if I need a filler
(1) Thing of Capri suns I didnt have a coupon but they are 1.88 and thats a good deal I hate that capri suns went up to 2.50 + recently so if I can get them on sale I will generaly get some too bad the coupons expired yesterday on these.
(1) 12 pk of smart sense soda this is the kmart brand and I only like deit pepsi and it has to be pepsi but the kids like a root beer every now and again and this is their FREE item this week so who am I to leave at the storeif its FREE, get a monthly ad from the service desk for this free item.
(2) Bags of the Hersheys Choc Drops there is a rewards coupon in this weeks ad to use and get for 1.99 BEWARE mine did not reduce my price I knew my total wasnt right and double checked my reciept before I left anyway so they came down to 1.99 I had (2) $1 coupons that doubled making FREE I dont like these things but they are great to have for a little thank you gift with a cute tag on especially since they were FREE. (Coupon was available on their facebook page)
(1) All Laundry Det - ok here was my mistake they were on sale and I thought I wasnt quite to my $25 yet BUT the kids had gotten a little rowdy and I must of added soon because I didnt need to get this so my cost would of been $3 cheaper if I left this off for another transaction
So I paid just over $15 for all this but I was aggravated I should of only paid about $10 but because of my adding error and Kmart errors I didnt catch I paid more.. this is why I really try and do these trips with no kids.
So still with the mistakes it was a DECENT haul BUT I only like to spend what I have to .. so as I always warn check your kmart reciepts before you leave the store,
