Christmas Coupons

We are on a chunk for money.. In my last post i was talking about how i was scared that i wasn't going to be able to do Christmas or even Birthday. Well i found kinda a way..
Coupons and Black Friday!

First ill tell you about my lovely coupons i used at Kohl's..
In the mail we got a card that was $10 off.. you have to spend $10 or more but that's always easy when you shop at Kohl's..
Well my friend had lots. i think she had a total of like 14.
So she gave us 7.. that's a total of $70 we got for free.
Kohl's is always having really good deals.
Everything in this picture we got for $33.. Yeah that's all and we got 6 Christmas gifts, my sister an outfit and myself a shirt... normally $170.
I got those two Barbie for $1.70, each barbie was $6 each.
Te Nerf gun and my shirt for $8. Nerf gun is normally $12.00 and the shirt is $8.
My mom got Breanna pants,shirt, and jewelry
for $13.80. Pants normally $35 on sale for $10.80 and the shirt was $14.50. Not sure on the price for the Jewelry.
The dump truck was $2.93. Normally $24
the to cars were $2.60 Normally $24

So i think we got a pretty good deal. All that for least then $50...
(Sorry really bad picture.)



Then BLACK FRIDAY!!!
I'm crazy about this day.. Ive been doing this for 3 years not and I'm addicted..
I always get most of my Christmas shopping done here. Most of it.. They always have the best deals, you just have to fight people to get what you want. :) I'm hoping this year i can do the same and get some awesome deals. I have been able to get some of my family to come with me. This year ill have my mom, sister in law, and Barb. I'm really excited to see how my mom is going to like it. She hates shopping and she
hates crowds ha. So we will see. But I'm going to make a list of things that we really need to get and make sure i get them. I have this App on my phone of all the Black Friday deals. So i already have it set. Haha yes I'm addicted, But hey its gets Christmas done. :)
Just thinking about it makes me all excited haha.
So there it is my plan for Birthday and Christmas on a low income. it BETTER WORK.

Wherever you are my ♥ will find you.

My mom found this wonderful book that she is going to give to all her grand kids for Christmas.
But i loved it so much that I'm going to share it with you.
Made me cry..
Hope you all love it!

Wherever you are my love will find you.
By Nancy Tillman..


"I wanted you more than you ever will know,
so i sent love to follow wherever you go.
It's high as you wish it.
It's as quick as an elf.
You'll never outgrow it.....it stretches itself.



So climb any mountain...
climb up to the sky!
My love will find you.
My love can fly.


Make a big Splash!
Go out on a limb!
My love will find you.
My love can swim.
It never gets lost,
 never fades,
never ends....


If your working...
or playing...
or sitting with friend
You can dance 'til you're dizzy...
paint 'til you're blue


There's no place, not one,
that my love can't find you.


 And if someday you're lonely,
or someday you're sad,
or you strike out at baseball,
or think you've been bad.

Just lift up your face, feel the wind in your hair.
That's me, my sweet baby, my love is right there.


In the green of the grass... in the smell of the sea...
in the clouds floating by... at the top of the trees...
in the sound crickets make at the end of the day...

"You are loved. You are loved. You are loved," They all say


My love is so high, and so wide and so deep,
it's always right there, even when you're asleep..

So hold your head up high
 and don't be afraid to march to the front of your own parade.
If you're still my small babe,
or you're all the way grown,
my promise to you is you're never alone.


You are my angel, my darling,
my star....and my love will find you,
WHEREVER YOU ARE...."
