I just spend $42 and got... 2 tops for Eden and her winter coat for next year, 3-pack of undies for Johnny, my Starbucks coffee, dinner (boxed, but one we love, lol!), 3 photo frames, a greeting card and an alarm clock.

I rarely shop there LOL But only because we have a HUGE Super Wal-mart 5 minutes from me, and Target is SOOOO out of the way compared to that, so I rarely get to it.

But when I do, I occasionally do find a decent deal :)

I just WUB Target, although, I never manage to get out of there for less than $100! I went yesterday and got new socks for DD#2, a big bouncy ball which DD#2 insisted on, a cute bathroom trolley for all those bath toys and 2 organizers for the laundry room. Yep, it was $100! LOL! Seriously, I love Target because their home stuff looks like Pottery Barn for 1/2 the price!

My reason to love Target? Because we don't have one. LOL I know that sounds weird, but the fact that we don't have one makes me love it and miss it that much more to where I utilize it FABULOUSLY when I drive the 2.5 hours to go to one! LOL

The $1 bin. I got some mailboxes and I'm going to use them for a workshop and for gifts. I'll be using paper and all sort of embellishments to deck them out :D They have better varieties than WM too I think.

I walked out with all of this for $35

My DH loves the fact that they are not in Canada, and therefore I cannot shop there! LOL

Oh man I love Target - bought a freakin cool lamp for our new Wii game room and paid only $7.00! Man I was too excited and it works awesome....I am going back to buy another one today!

You guys are such enablers!!

Seriously, I love Target, but I can't get out for under $100, either. I always find too many things that I must have! lol

STOP it!!!!! When we go for our annual trek to the US in the summer we always spend about a $1000 at Target! I don't think the front wheels were even touching the ground on the way home - the back was filled to the roof! I love shopping in the U.S. - such different stuff and now our dollar is actually worth something there! I'm so jealous!

I saw those mailboxes! I thought it would be fun to decorate them for my dd to take to school to hold her Valentines. Why didn't I get them, you say? I have no idea. I'll go back though ;)

Hello, AManda! You totally have me beat, there, lol!

I love just walking around the store. We do that a lot. I can walk out w/o having even bought anything and still feel happier than when I walked in. I like to walk out with a new box of Choxies, though. ;)

I shopped at out local Target last night and online! lol The store didn't have the clearance toys I wanted to get for our upcoming birthdays, so I can home and bought them online. I love Target, but I don't like taking DH there with me, the days we only need to get 2-3 things, he finds a cartful! lol

Oh man. I love target. The closest one is just under 2 hours away but we drive out at least once a month. My kids love getting a soft pretzel before we start and I love that it keeps them happy for all my shopping. HAAAA

I love Target b/c I just picked up 4 Shutterfly calendar codes for $10 each, includes shipping!!! and I got 2 8x8 books for $14 each including shipping. They were marked down for clearance. The codes are good for 2 years woo hoo.

I also love the Starbucks inside.

When we lived in an apartment, there were a few months when we spent more at Target than we did on rent.

I love Target especially because we do not have one!! hehe

We were just in Minneapolis last weekend and every few miles I'd say "oohhhh look...there's a SuperTarget!" My DH joked that this was how I'd find my way home...haha when actually I'd probably get really lost because I'd be stopping at ALL of them!!

When we were at one Target - they had movies on for $3.99!!! That's crazy!

Have any of you seen this blog? http://slavetotarget.blogspot.com/ I can't remember where I heard about it first. It's a funny read.

I have to let the hubby venture to Target by himself tonight to pick up a few things while I get my hair cut - I'm almost depressed that I won't be shopping at Target myself. lol I love that ours has a Starbucks too :)
