Spent 96. on clearance, etc at Toys R Us

[frannn]

Yesterday I ran over to our local TRU, since I heard about the Buy 2, Get 1 free sale. DD will be 2 on Thurs and loves the Wiggles. TRU had pretty much the same Wiggles toys I already bought her (plus a few that were either for older children or more $ than I wanted to spend because you had to buy 2). Anyway...I found some decent deals on items that were on clearance (did not get the "1/2 off green ticketed items" they have now on these because they were red ticket clearance :rolleyes: ) I bought a jumbo box of Huggies with a 5. in store coupon (final price 24.99), a Disney Princess Leapfrog Laptop with a slightly battered box (29.99), Graco Literider Jackpot print stroller (19.90), and Safety 1st bath stool/storage (7.90). The stroller just had an inch of stitches out in the material, and the bath stool looked like it might have been a return. It is for parents to kneel on while bathing toddlers in the tub, and can be used as a child's stepping stool later on. We really didn't neeeeeeed another stroller (have a fairly new Graco Metrolite and older, heavier Graco), but we killed our old Citilite in Disney World this month. How'd I do? Any "bad" purchases? Bad deals?

I think you did great. I wish I had time to get to TRU - it is over 1/2hr away and I just cannot get there and back.

I would love to get the Princess laptop of DD for Christmas.

I am making a trip to BRU tomorrow to get a baby shower gift.

I went to TRU to by a birthday present for my DD's friend. I was going to buy an American Idol keyboard for $20.00, which I thougt was a good price, they rang it up at $9.99. On top of that I had a $5.00 off coupon. I can't just give her the keyboard ( also bought a CD) knowing it cost only $7.50. They were so generous when it was my DD's birthday, I'm giving her $15.00 also. It may seem like alot when she opens it all, but my conscious won't let me spend that little.

I only wish i had more to buy, my kids are outgrowing TRU.
