Shopaholics

I found out this weekend that Steven and I can be major shopaholics (especially when it comes to our little nudger).

We went to Babies R Us on Sunday afternoon just with the intention of looking around and getting ideas. The trip was going like it normally would for me with lots of "Aaawwws" and "Oohhhs", but then we decided to check cribs and bedding. There are tons of options at Babies R Us for cribs and bed sets. We wandered over to the shelves holding the bedding and then hit the mother load. We found a cute bed set that was brown and white and on sale for 75% off. Then we looked around and realized that all of Amy Coe's bedroom stuff was on sale for 75% off, but they only had 3 items in the colors we liked. We ended up getting the bed set, mobile, and three paintings for right around $70.00. On our receipt it said we saved $195.00.

We were shell shocked because you don't ever find those kinds of baby items that cheap unless your looking at a garage sale or Craig's List.

So Steven got everything out when we got home, but the mobile wasn't working. We decided to go to the Babies R Us in Irving to return it and get one that worked. Of course we had to look around there, but there were no signs that said Amy Coe's stuff was on sale. Well there just happened to be a scanner right next to all of her bedding and sure enough it was all on sale in Irving too. So we started grabbing stuff (because this store had more of a selection in the color we picked) and scanning. We ended up with a hamper, receiving blankets, a chenille blanket, a huge painting, a rug, a stuffed dog, changing pad cover, an extra crib sheet, and something else and again we paid $70.00 for all of it. This receipt said we saved $202.00.

So like I said we hit the mother load at Babies R Us!!!
