mom and I went in town yesterday to shop. She wanted to do some shopping for herself and my major goal was to get some stuff for niece's bday next month. My niece sent me a list of books and dvds she wants. I got several of the things listed.

Coupon total ytd = 200.13
RX total = 109.45
Discounted Gift Cards = 97.91
Total = 407.49

At Bed, Bath and Beyond I got a silicone baking mat for me. $15 - $5 coupon. Used the last of my discounted gift card and paid cash for the rest. Bought another $25 discounted gift card today from Plastic Jungle to replace the used up one. Got a 10% discount.

At Target I got some ham for me and several DVDs for her. Step up 2 and 3, Burlesque, and Benny and Joon. Benny and Joon was on sale for $5 and I had a $3 coupon, so I got that one for $2. It wasn't on her list, but she likes Johnny Depp and I think that's a cute movie.

At Border's they didn't have any of the books she wanted so I got one book for me and used a coupon to save $2.64. I did get the Shutter Island DVD for her and used a 33% off coupon on it. Saved $6.60.

This morning I went online to Borders and ordered the 3 books on her list and another DVD - Fight Club. Saved $5.94 on the DVD. I used a discounted gift card to pay. That leaves me with enough money to get one more DVD. I'm going to see if Walmart has any of the others on her list and then the list goes to mom, to see if she can get some for her.

My sister had a contract on her house and if it goes thru will need to move out by June 10. We are going to look at houses this afternoon.

I finished reading my book WitchFire by James Clemens. Sci/Fi - very good.
