Well, we blew the budget once again in the State's on our Shopping Weekend. I got a lot of shirts, way more than I thought I would (for someone who wasn't going to get much), and we managed to get all the kids Christmas shopping done. Marn bought a few dresses and nice shirts and other things.
Between us and Mom and Teresa, we were teetering on being over our total legal limits without paying duty. And to think that just a few months ago, that limit was doubled! What bad (but also good) timing this trip was being so close to the Cruise and Christmas. Bad for the cruise, but great for Christmas.
The killer for us all was the last store we hit on Sunday afternoon.... RACKS of kids clothing for $2.99. AND Marnie happened to ask the cashier if there were any coupons for the store. She said, no, but that she'd let her use one behind the counter for ANOTHER 15% off total purchase. You've got to be kidding me! Make that $2.55 for many, many racks of clothes. A lot of kiddies will be getting a lot of clothes from The Childeren's Place this Christmas! lol
