OT - Shopping in Buffalo - all the different stuff!

[Reese]

My must have if plain old Chex Mix. I also love shopping for kids clothes, it is so much cheaper at Walmart. I was able to pick up disney short sets for $5.

Rice Chex cereal. My kids always go for Cookie Crisp cereal but after one bowl they are always begging to have some of my rice chex.

When we shop across the border we always come home with cheap beer, cheap Velveeta, and Playtex Thermal Pads (for girlie pains). And if I need jeans, there's a style of Lee jeans in the States that I can't find here and they fit me perfectly. We always go for 48 hours because we treat it like a holiday and bringing home bargains is just a bonus. There's also IBC cream soda and bottled flavoured iced tea (the brand escapes me right now) that I like to bring home. And we stop at EVERY McDonalds we can so I can buy 2 large sweet teas. It's a darned good thing our McDonalds don't sell sweet tea, or I'd weigh 2000 pounds and not have a tooth left in my head! I ♥ that stuff!

Ok, did NOT know about:

Cheaper toner cartridges for the printer
Cheaper DVDs (sometimes)
those thermal thingies
and I most certainly did not realize that US McD's sell sweet tea. We've never bothered going into one over there.... I just assumed it was the same as home!

I was planning on visiting Schwabl's however. DH wants beef-on-weck. For me, it's gotta be with extra pickles!

Our two DDs would rather have American McDonalds,they love thier food.We also got to hit a Golden Correl for supper, and they are hard to find.

The one thing I cannot ever go without having is a Wegman's sub, it is like no other sub I have ever tasted. Everything about it is delightful
I like Kohl's and Marshall's (both sort of like Winners but better prices.)

I love Sam's Club...I didn't really like it when it was in Canada but I still keep the membership for when we go into the States. We have gotten some really good deals on electronics, clothing and we always stop to get Dh a couple cases of beer to bring back. Food is cheap there also (4 x 1lb butter for $6.59) so we load up on groceries before we head for the border. We are going this weekend and was surprised to find out that the outlet mall is open on Easter Sunday.

Love, love, love shopping at Target... Just got back from Miami and they've unveiled a whole new line of "Liberty's of London" products exclusive to Target (yes, THAT Liberty's - with the $300 floral print scarves). Everything is soooo beautiful! They have adult clothes, kids clothes, accessories, housewares, picture frames, even rubber boots (!) - all in the famous Liberty floral prints. Also, if you're a scrapbooker, they have great deals - I found a Making Memories leather album for $14.99 - the same one is $34.99 at Michaels's in Canada! Happy shopping!

Love target.

One thing we always get when we are there. Cherry Coke.
Target usually has it onsale for 3 case for 11.00. DH loves the stuff and rations it till he can get more.

Now, if only I could get Cranberry Canada Dry Gingerale. Why why WHY did they only make it for Christmas!

target has their own coupons that you can stack with manufacturer coupons as well. I have got MANY items for free or 2 cents there before. I LOVE target. Check out afullcup.com they have a list of what items you can combine and all the printable coupons listed. One time I was there and my bill went from 93.68 to 16.23. Man was I happy! The people in line behind me ... not so much! LOL

LOL! I ALWAYS have to stop in at McD's for sweet tea! The whole family loves it and I buy it by the jugs to bring back home.
