Just a few saves this week on my normal every day trips.. nothing huge this week but none the less a deal is a deal and a $1 saved is better then none!
Wednesday - went to the local good will in my home town and not only found some great deals on some clothing but got hooked up with a great discount! I got a pair of jeans for myself, 6 shirts for myself, and a bag of toys for $25!
Thursday - free chickfila sandwhich with validation code gained from filling out an online survey! Just a few minutes of my time for a few bucks saved!
Friday - free childcare (every month we get 16 free hours of childcare on post because of the type unit my husband is in), free movies (this technically was not free how ever it was from a raffle auction won that I gained a ton for my money and the money went to a great cause! So a simple donation gained some free date nights!)
Saturday - $45 saved at Price Chopper on Groceries! 40% of my bill!
So this year I needed to come up with an idea for a costume for myself for a Scentsy Event I was doing...A table at the witches ball!
So I decided to make a lego costume!
This was a great inexpensive costume that cost no more then $3!
I got a box from my garage and cut out arm holes and a hole for the head.
Painted the box red ($1 paint)
and Super Glued Red cups on the front for the lego pieces ($2 for glue and cups!)
Of course my daughter later went into the garage and got the paint and painted my hallway wall red so I have more painting yet to do lol
I took the kids out and got some adorable pictures of them in their Halloween Costumes this afternoon before our playgroup Halloween Party!
My youngest is Shirley Temple compliments of her Nana making the costume! My oldest daughter is Monster High and my boys are Batman and Gi Joe!
After we took a few fun pictures we had some fun with some friends eating a lot of different Halloween snacks and then headed out to the Ranch for the evening and had hot dogs, chips, and caramel apples! Played some games, made some crafts and rode horses!! Great evening and lots of fun!
