Trip to Joann's on Saturday evening
 

After a family reunion, I asked my Hubby if we could stop at Joann's on the way home (closest one to me is 90 minutes away) and he said no problem.

Well... did I ever get my Christmas early!

Go cutters and dies were 40% off -- so I now have a full size Go cutter, dies of 2 1/2 strips, log cabin, 6 1/2 squares, tumbler and mats for all of them.

Then I had a 50% off for a new 24 x 36 cutting mat

and wonders of wonders... Joann's had a special of by the 18W Ottlight ($109) and get the 24W Ottlight free ($209)...yes, the more expensive one was FREE!!!! We got extra bulbs for both as they were 50% off.

According to the receipt, I SAVED $525 dollars!!!! Yes, my hubby was helping carry stuff and stack it in the cart. He wanted me to get a new iron but I passed on it.

Talk about a surprise stop, this was one for the books.

Wow. WOW! How very lovely for you!

You did good! Wished I had seen those deals when I went Saturday morning with coupon for 25% off at the register, but I bought fleece and fabrics instead.

Congrats on some nice stuff and a husband that is supportive!

WOW, sounds like you got a wonderful Christmas early. I haven't been shopping, other than for groceries. Not a thing I need or want.

Good for you! Christmas came early. So nice you have such a supportive husband. Let's hear it for enablers, lol! Just kidding---I'm sure you support his passions, too. Have fun with your new toys.

I went yesterday morning also. Got about 15 yds of fabrics, thread, 5 yds wonder under I needed, 2 patterns, needles, a few other things. Used coupon and with sale prices only spent 42.00. Was great! Mom went with me so after we went to lunch. Good day out.

What a GREAT saviings.......good for you and thank you, hubby.:)

Sounds like you were lucky on two counts.. one great deals .. two a supportive hubby! Enjoy both!

We (of course) had to play with the cutter last night. It will take some getting use to, but no more "v" 2 1/2 inch strips.

Yep, my hubby is a pretty super guy. He kept saying "you better get this one too" with the dies, I actually had to to tell him, I didn't think I'd ever use it on a couple, lol.
