steal of a deal x10

I got a steal of a deal at DI tonight... actually, more than one!
  • Harry Potter 5 (in great condition, first book in my collection) - $3.00
  • Christmas wrapping paper (two huge BRAND NEW rolls) - $0.75/each
  • 2 Picture frames for a repurposing project I'm doing - $0.75/ea
I also got a few great deals last month, too! I can't believe I forgot to blog about these!
  • 3 Stocking Holders (for a repurposing project) - $1.50/ea
  • Picture frame (for the same repurposing project) - $0.75
  • DVD Player (pretty decent condition, ours had broken) - $10.00
  • Silverware drawer sorter - $1.00
  • Condiment tupperware sorter thing (same one I grew up with that we used when we had Hawaiian Haystacks or Tacos) - $1.50
  • V-neck T-shirt (b/c of my t-shirt quilt that I'm working on, I don't have any more t-shirts to just wear around the house) - $2.00
I was pretty excited about all my great deals! DI is a lot more awesome as an adult then it was as a kid. Probably because my mom would make us try on the clothes that you could just feel were someone else's. Now I get to choose what I buy and actually enjoy it! (I also don't try things on until they've gone through the wash...jk, but kinda for real) Ben's a good sport about it, too.

Is it sad that I'm so excited about my deals from DI? Probably, yes... but that's ok. I had a great night just browsing the aisles of DI, Ross, TJMaxx, Old Navy and (my personal favorite) LOWES, with my husband.  --  But seriously, it's fun to look all the home stuff and think of a better future. Times where green walls and exposed electrical wire don't exist in my home... :)

Happy Friday! Good-night and Good-luck.

Yay for good deals! You've inspired me to do some thrift store shopping once we are back in California. We are going to leave quite a bit of furniture here, so I think it'd be fun to find old cheap stuff and make it cute! Also, I love Lowe's, too! It's so fun walking around and taking a mental note of what you want in your dream house someday. :)

I love that you shared your finds. I love DI for that very reason. I must have went when shipments just came. I came home with a new fall wreath, thanksgiving decor, picture frames (from Deseret Book), wayyy cute barely used purse, GAP baby cloths(it's ok right? They just grow so fast). Anyhow love the St. George DI!Thanks for sharing
