I must start off with TODAY WAS MY 1ST DAY WITHOUT KIDS FOR 3 WHOLE HOURS!!!!!
I actually got to walk through the store, up & down the aisles, looking at clearance stuff, browsing through things other than just the toy aisles in peace & quiet

I sure am gonna LOVE Mondays & Fridays!
Today I got:
1st transaction:
49.95 - 5 Glade flameless candles
-20.00 - 5 coupons (2 internet printable Q's, 3 from inserts)
Paid $30.20 after tax and got back $25.00 in gift cards! Putting away for office gifts for the holidays!
7.98 - 4 packages of post it's (-7.00 in internet coupons)
3.96 - 4 packages of the petite cookies (-4.00 Target Coupons)
3.98 - 2 Toaster Strudels (-$1/2 mfg Q, -$1.50 (2) Target Coupons)
12.96 - 2 Window Garden kids kits - paint the pots, plant seeds thing - kind of like the window herb gardens. Clearance Item

6.98 - Slip & Slide Water slide thing for the kids - clearance item
1.27 - Campbells Soup - I think it rang wrong or I grabbed 2 different soups & didn't realize it
.64 - Campbells Tomato Soup (realizing maybe she rang 3 not 2)
Total $32.29 - used previous gift cards from Glade candles so -$25.00. Paid OOP 7.29
I figured it I was going to pay for the items I was purchasing anyway, I may as well get those candles at $1.00 each! after the gift cards. So for $37.49 I got:
* regular food items we eat - quite a bit!
* 4 things (2 per kid) to put away for the kids for Christmas
* 4 packages of post its & 4 packages of cookies I will send in to kids teachers.
* 5 office gifts for girls I work with and exchange small items with.
Summer clearanced to 75% in my store! Also still have insect repellent & yard guards stuff like the OFF Lanterns and such marked way down. School stuff was being packed and moved around but didn't see anything scanning at clearance or marked clearance.
