Frugal Holidays: Mother's Day Goodies

Tweet

I know it's the day before, but since we had a little bit of cash and a little bit of time. Chris took me to Fort Walton and Destin to make sure that I got to get a couple of things I have mentioned that I wanted for a while. They may seem dumb, silly and cheap to you, but it's exactly what I've wanted. We went and had a very cheap lunch at Taco Bell, and then went to Five Below. He got me another pair of the earbuds that I found a couple months ago and LOVE. They hold an amazing battery life, have a great sound quality and are really comfortable. Especially since they were only $8. I've been wanting to get back into my digital artwork and Etsy stuff, so he found me a two pack of stylus' for $4 and finally we went to Crumbl- because I have been wanting to go since my birthday last month. I got a Lemon Poppyseed cookie for $4.49. Our lunch total was $12.79. So I still think we did really good! We also picked up my Mother in Law's goodies. Again, we are on a budget. But she is so good to us, and does everything she can to help us in anyway possible- so I wanted to make sure we got her something. We found 6 oz bags of individual Turtle candies for buy one get one at Publix. They are her favorite candy. So for $4.94 we got two bags of her favorite candy. We found a clear "impossible" puzzle at Five Below for her that was $5.55. She loves puzzles and this will make her laugh. Then we got her a pretty sweet card at Dollar Tree for $1.00 and two gift bags to put her goodies in for $1.25 each. Didn't spend that much money on her stuff either, but it is stuff that will be meaningful to her, and it will surprise her that she even got a present. So that means more than something fancy. I didn't get a picture of her presents, but will grab one tomorrow when she opens them. Instead here's a picture of my goodies. Brook also made me a super adorable card, that I will post about tomorrow. Happy Mother's Day to @spiderdust . And that's bad...that's the only mother I can think of and their username to tag. LOL but happy mothers day to all the other moms as well. Kloveyoubye.
