Bargain shoppin at Hobby Lobby, TjMax, and Marshalls...Woot!



Click above and go visit Rodas from Southern Hospitalitys weekly Thrifty Treasures party!!! Join in on the fun or just look through at everyones awesome finds for the week! Leave lots of Comments!!!


Ohhhh how I love me some clearance! So I didn't hit any garage sales this weekend which I am bummed about as there were TONS, but next week, lol. This weekend I hit up TjMax, Marshalls, and of course GoodWill!! It was so much fun!!!! I found soooooo many goodies, well goodies to me, lol.



I found both of these jars for a total of 2.99, one matches exactly to another I got at another Goodwill awhile back. The goodwill I hit today had lots of goodies but they were soooo much higer priced! So I behaved.



I got these, love love love them, they had more matching these but a bundle of 4 was 3.99 and sorry but I thought that was high, so I stuck with one bundle. I love these in a jar!



This was at TJMax for 1.00, Woohooo! These things aren't always cheap, its a flower punch that makes pop up flowers, can't wait to try it out!

This tray was marked down to $3.oo, It will be spray painted and used for something, come back and see :)



These little shadow boxes were 3.00 each at TjMax, Definately changing these up, I am seein some pretty paper and keys, hehe...



These different little plates were 1.00, not normally something I would choose but I immediately had an idea for them!




Loved these monogram napkins and totally have a plan for them, can't wait to show you!


This little cutie was 3.00, I love this and think I will spray it white.



This was oddly one of my fave purchases of all! I have been wanting one of these for awhile for change, love that it counts up the change for me, lol. This was marked down to $3.00, awesome! And it's bigger than the others I have seen! I want to start collecting all of the change from the week and every couple of weeks turn it in and use it for something for the family, whether it's something small like going for ice cream or whatever, something, ya know?




These are my Marshalls goodies, their clearance isle was wiped out but still I managed to find something, the towel bar was 18.00 normally and marked down to $2.00, you can't tell in the picture but it's such a pretty one, it has a little design on it, love it and needed one! The little cup was to cute for 1.00 and the pear topiary for 2.00 is cute as is but I think I will pick all the pears off use them for something and then use the topiary form to make another, totally worth 2.00.


Ok now on to my fave Hobby Lobby, These huge clock hands were marked down to 2.00 yep, you read that right! I think these are so cool, no idea where they are going though, lol.




This little gold one was 1.00, definately getting painted...




Ahhhh the middle black one is definately my favorite, and for 3.00! The other black one was 2.20




These were 1.00 and the small was .60, totally need some paint!


These little mirrors that will get a paint job were only....drumroll please....1.60!!!!!! I wish they would of had more!




A sad little letter but only .30....



Ok these are boring but they were marked down to 4.00 at TjMax...Great for back to school.


And I got my 7 month old this little guess tee for 3.00 there. I also got my oldest some cute shoes for 4.24 at target and my littlest a spiderman tee for 3.24, I don't like character stuff but his chubby little self will look so cute in it and I knew it would make hubby happy as yes he is a comic book lovin, superhero chasin, computer whizin, pushin up his glasses kind of nerd, haha! Seriously though, he is. This was NOT disclosed til AFTER we tied the knot!!! HAHA! He had all the comic books hid and didn't bring them out til AFTER we married, had no idea! Haha, it's all good though, I love it!


So anywho, did you find any great deals this weekend? If you live near Hobby Lobby I totally recommend checking it out and they have frames at 90% off, HUGE ones for 4.00, 5.00 and 6.00, soooooooo many of them! I have to go back and get me some frames! There was just so much, my friend Tracy went with me and we were like 2 little kids in a candy store, she got LOTS of neat ones! It's so nice to have a friend who enjoys bargain shopping and doing the same things I do.


Now if all goes well, I will be craftin the night away in yes my still unorganized cluttered messy, messy room but hey everything is moved and in there now, lol. I seriously have no clue where I am going to cram all of my stuff. I need to be having a huge sale not going to them, haha. Anyways come back tomorrow and I will show you some transformations from the goodies above!!! Also have a table redo and chalkboard redo that I WILL post tomorrow that I have been talkin about for weeks. Seriously, Tomorrow.




Don't forget to check out everyone elses!!!

Signing Out said...

What great finds! I love the jars, the finials and the frames. I always go straight to the clearance aisle at T.J. Maxx and Marshall's.

It was cloudy this morning, so I didn't see the usual yard sales here today. I did manage to find one plus I went to a great thrift shop. I'll be sharing my finds for Monday's Thrifty Treasures.

You did really well! Have fun re-doing all your finds. I like the idea of the keys in the box frames. I have a black one I'm needing to find some keys for.

You really "racked" up this weekend. Good job. Everything is great, but I really like the big clock hands.

You found some great things! I'm new to your blog. Speaking of Goodwill...I've found a Gold Canyon candle there before and loved it. I can't remember what I paid for it (couldn't have been more than $2-4).

Amanda @ Serenity Now said...

Hey Nicole! Thanks for the nice comment you left on my blog! Guess what? You were the 20th person to follow me. Might not seem like a big deal, but I never thought that many people would be interested in my little blog when I started a few months ago. I'd say this calls for a celebration!! Woo hoo! Thanks, again :) Enjoy your week.

Ashley @ AshleysBusy said...

Kendra @ Domestic Princess in Training said...

Wow you’ve been a busy lady! You found a TON of wonderful items. I saw so many that I liked it’s hard to remember the ones I wanted to comment on. I love the little tee you bought for your son, too cute! The little planter are fun too. I like the copper but I’m sure they will look wonderful in white. The napkins are cute too. I’m interested in seeing what you do with them.
