The Art of the Sale

The second week in December Wes and I did the bulk of the girls Christmas shopping at Target. I am not going to bore you with the details of everthing that we bought for them (there is a point to this blog). One of the items we purchased was the Target Disney Doll Set with 7 of the Princesses in it for $59. Well on Tuesday I was in Target and saw the same Princess set on sale for $42.99 - that is an $18 difference! I asked one of the clerks about their price adjustment policy and she said you have 7 days. I thought that was stupid because I bought it more than 7 days ago ... so I went home, unwrapped it, got my receipt, and returned it. They gave me $64 and some change, I then went to to the toy aisle, picked up the same set for $42.99, and The Little Mermaid 2 ($19.99). I went to the cashier and paid a $4 difference for the set and the movie. Now that is what I call getting your money's worth. I took it home, wrapped it back up, and put it under the tree. The girls did not have a clue. Take that price adjustment Grinches.

I have seen so many ridiculous sales this season that I am glad Wes and I waited until this last week to do each other's Christmas shopping. I am keeping my eyes open for any other sales items we have previously purchased. Happy shopping:)
