Online Bargains –

One of our 24/7 MOMS Team members Tanya shared with me that Wal-Mart has an online clearance section where you can get great buys. So, I went online to http://www.walmart.com/ typed in CLEARANCE in the search box and it gave me a menu to choose various areas I could shop for clearance items, from toys to apparel. You can find some great deals.

Coupon Queen –

Time to stock up on candy for the many trick or treaters that will arrive on my door step come October 31st.

This week at my local Target they have bags of fun size M& M’s, Snickers, Kit Kats and more on sale 2 bags for $4.00 plus on most packages there was a $1.00 off the purchase of 2 packages coupon stuck on the outside of the package for immediate use …which makes it 2 fun size bags of candy for $3.00 what a deal an entire bag of fun size snickers (or other varieties) for $1.50.

Shopping Bargain –

Today I took a shopping trip over to my local Target to pick up a few more things that #1 Son needed for dorm life. You know the basics like sheets, towels, comforters, towels, school supplies, frames etc.

The best part of my trip to Target was that everything I needed was on clearance 30% to 75% off. So, if you are in need of sheets, blankets, towels, frames or even School supplies, head on over to your local Target and check out their clearance items all over the store.
