As usual, I am stealing Jen’s Sunday Sentiments button and idea and making it mine tonight. I’ve “known” Jen for umm, 10 years (and yet we’ve never met), and she knows I do it, so it’s not exactly stealing. But then again, it’s not a link up either ;).
~I have no idea how it’s already Sunday night, but I am kind of wishing we could get a few days of this long weekend back! Specifically yesterday when B and I were sick. We are feeling MUCH better now though, which I am very pleased about. L still has a cough though, so I took him to Urgent Care today and they confirmed that yes, he has a cough, lol. They did give us some prescriptions though because it has had a cough for over a week. I believe we spent 10 minutes in the waiting room, 5 minutes talking to the doctor and then 45 minutes waiting for her to write us the prescriptions. Thank goodness for free wifi!
~We did get some holiday decorating done today though! I have one tree up and did the mantle (it still needs some work), the doorway and the apothecary jars. Everyone got in on the decorating action and while it may have taken a tad longer with all the little hands “helping” (I’m looking at you WB), it was for sure more fun that way.
~Okay, so all your Target Cartwheel lovers out there, tell me, what does it mean when you get a badge? I use Cartwheel, but totally not like I should. I do see people getting badges on Facebook though and need to know what that’s all about. Do I need me some badges? Is it like a badge on FourSquare?
~If you missed it earlier, I am doing a 12 Days of Christmas Giveaway which run daily from December 1st – December 12th. Obviously I only have Day 1 up right now, but you can check that one and all future ones out here. What’s going to be given away is anyone’s guess! For real. I’m not even sure what a few days are going to be yet!
~I changed my “Black Friday” tab in the menu bar to “Cyber Monday” and am updating with new Cyber Monday Subscription Box codes as I hear of them! If you hear of any that I have missed, let me know please!
~I mentioned a few times how I wanted a cheaper version of the Pottery Barn Anywhere Chair for L and I stumbled on this one (the Big Joe Dorm Chair) at Gilt (*) today and snapped it right up! It was $42 (plus shipping), but I had some credits, so the price was just right!
~I have no idea what boxes are coming this week, but I am hoping for some fun surprises to appear! And I am really really hoping that we get some PopSugar December or Holiday Box spoilers. Not sure that’s going to happen, but a girl can dream right?
How is your weekend going? Any Sunday night plans?
My polish is looking absolutely dreadful right now! Usually I change about once a week, but with finals and more hours at work I’ve been neglecting my nails.
Ahaha, I commented on the wrong blog post. Way to go. However, I love the bright ornaments and the decorated mantle! Makes me want to bust out the carols and go Christmas crazy.
That’s okay! I like all the comments!
What can I say…I am so not ready to go back to work… 🙁
My hubby just left to Mississippi on a business trip…maybe job interview…and I am kind of scare about the possibility of moving, to that State…I mean unemployment and poverty is HIGH…so, it’s going to be a very difficult decision if it comes to that. So, don’t know what to think or expect at this time…I am all for trying out new places, but when you have pre teenagers, you have to super think before you move away to what is comfortable to them…that is my Sunday!
I think moving anytime would be scary!!! Good luck with your decision if it comes to that!
It took me months to figure the badges out! They don’t explain very well…getting a badge means you get an extra slot for another offer. This made a difference early on, but now that I have 18 slots it’s meh.
Oh, okay. That makes sense! I thought it was just to collect. LOL.
Love your decorations!! I can’t wait to finish mine 🙂
Thanks! I still have more work to do, but it’s a start!
Target Cartwheel is amazing! The ultimate is when you get something on sale, have a regular coupon, a Target coupon, and then a cartwheel coupon – I did that with holiday M&Ms this weekend and ended up getting a bag for $1. I got so excited that I called Ryan and he didn’t quite understand the excitement lol. But the badges allow you to unlock more cartwheel offer spaces (I think you start out with 15 available slots?) which means more savings.
Ohh, okay, so more space for coupons. I really need to get on this. I’m too busy at the checkout making sure WB doesn’t climb out of the cart on the scanner!
Jennifer, I want one of those Pottery Barn bean bags, too, so I looked at the chair on Gilt and I think Walmart is selling it for $29.88.
Ahhh, where were you yesterday when I ordered that?? I should have checked WalMart!
I know! I hate that. Maybe it’s not too late to cancel your Gilt order!
It’s okay though. I did have some credits!
I just bought that same chair for my boy in red!
I cannot wait to get it!
