Target Trip: Saved 71% & Hubby’s Fun Find

It’s been WAY too long since I’ve been to Target. We moved recently, and we’re now 15 minutes closer which makes it a little more manageable. Maybe I’ll be able to do my shopping there more often. I hope so, because they’ve got some rockin’ deals going on! Here’s what I got this week:

Merchandise Value: $68.48
Out-of-Pocket Cost: $19.96
Savings: $48.52 (71%)

My husband takes great pride in the 4 GIGANTIC bags (16 oz each) of Valentine conversation hearts that he found. When he price checked them, they were only $.22 each. So we bought 4 bags. We got a good laugh out of the fact that 3 of the bags have hearts with Spanish messages on them. Time to brush up on that high school Spanish!
