Recent Purchases

What did you buy this weekend?

No fun clothes shopping for me.  DH and I just finished out our C&B registry (which hardly had anything on it).  We got glasses, mugs, a pitcher, mini muffin pan (so exicted for this!) and a new knife.

Re: Recent Purchases

  • Big shocker here but I bought nothing!
  • Oh yea, duh!  Thanks Brew!

    Well obviously I bought some Spanx recently.  I also bought Wii Madden 10 thinking it was Madden 11, as a present for Jeff - I felt like such a dumba$$ when I opened the package.  

    I haven't bought anything yet, but I am planning on getting a ton of stuff from Express with the awesome coupons that came for me in the mail.  I am so excited!!!

  • I almost bought these, but H rushed me out of the store so we could go see Harry Potter.

    image

    I'm debating on going back next week to see if they have these in my size. They look comfortable but I want to try them on first.

  • LTB-both shoes are cute!!

    Laura-we won't have an IKEA here until late 2011, but I can't wait, I've heard so much about it!

    Ha ha!  I blame my mom.  She gave us hand-me-down end tables and coffee table from C&B and of course C&B is the only place that has furniture to match the damn tables.  I'm too neurotic, I think!  I would have loved to get something from IKEA if only for the fact that I've never been to an IKEA store before and would like to go. :-)

  • We bought this Cuisinart knife set because I absolutely wanted it.  Once I got home I read the reviews and they were all bad.  I think we might return it.

    Also bought this springform pan so I can make a pumpkin cheesecake for Thanksgiving.

    image

    And I bought this Wilton 18 Piece Christmas cookie cutter set

  • H bought me this stuff from PacSun this weekend, when we went out of town to see my brother and SIL. (I copy and pasted these so I hope they turn out, I was to lazy to "tinypic" them)

    Abby New Stripe Hoodie

    Rhinestone Bow Stud Earrings

    Large Wing Necklace

    I did Not get this necklace, I got the earrings that went with it one wing on each earring. I normally don't wear jewelry like that but we were trying to reach 50 dollars because if you spent 50 you got a 25 gift card for free and we were like 4 dollars short. And I know I will be back there before christmas buying H stuff, so I could use that gift card.

    We also went to BB&B and got a dish scrubby thing, and some doggy steps for our bed. Our old ones were getting alittle worn out since I have tripped over them multiple times and broke pieces of the plastic. haha

  • Deb - if you don't like the knives, return them. We got a set of Henckles ones that I thought I really wanted but I don't like them at all and its too late to return them. My favorite knife is a 7" Santuko knife I got at Walmart for $15.
  • Just bought some jewelry.  I had a credit w/ Lia Sophia.  I feel much better now...I swear I'm addicted to shopping.

    That's so funny. I was in CO last week for work and EVERYONE I met was buzzing about the new IKEA. I was more stoked that a new Chik Fil A opened by my friends house so I can eat there when I visit.

  • DH and I went to multiple estate sales this past weekend. We got a leather couch and chair for $365, two large wooden bookshelves for $60, a cute little cabinet thing by William Sonoma for $15, stainless steel fridge, range, vent, and dishwasher for $750, and HE front loader washer and dryer for $450. We spent a lot but we saved a lot too. I don't have pictures yet. I'll try to post when I do.

    I think we just might.  I hate the thought of being stuck with a bad set.  Target has a Farberware set on sale for BF for $25.  If they only last a year so be it, but at least we only spent $25 for them.

    When my friend from CA comes to visit, we ALWAYS go to Chick Fil A at least once! :)  Another one just opened up by me (now we have 2 in a five mile radius) and my friend is jealous.  Too funny...

  • Bought this at lunch today for our Christmas cards, and it was only $10 at Pier 1!!

  • Not for me but I bought a Nintendio DS1 carrying case in pink for my sister as part of her Christmas gift ($7 at Ross, can't beat that!). no PIP.

    What color Uggs did you get?  I want a pair in Chestnut but don't know if I should get the Bailey Button or the classic.

    I got them in that Gray color - I was going to get the Chestnut in the button, but I figured since I didn't have gray I would get those.  I really love them!!!  Get the bailey's they are so much fun!

    I have the gray in the classic.  I've been wanting the button since last year so I think I'll get them.

    I love Ikea, but I hate any of their furniture that you sit on. I like their bookshelves, dressers, what have you. But I find their chairs and couches to be uncomfortable.
