Gotta Love a GREAT deal!!!!

Jeremiah has needed a new coat for awhile. He had a growing spurt, and then just the other day he showed me a huge rip under the arm on one side. Well if you know me I have to get a GREAT deal on clothes. My kids know to ask if it's on sale, because otherwise they know I won't get it. I usually just shop the clearance racks!

Well today I hit the Mother Lode!!!! I had called Kohls to see if boys coats were on sale, and the were for 65% off, but I thought I'd better try JC Penney first.

I walked in and heard the sales lady talking on the phone saying that she only had on Columbia left. So I walked on over to see what they had. Most of the coats were the big puffy ones that Jeremiah would not like, and then I saw the Columbia! It was a size 14/16, which is what I wanted for him. That way he can grow into it. They were having final clearance today so you got 40% off the pink clearance price.

Guess how much I got it for, guess!!!! What'd you guess??? How about $11.00!!!! Yes that's right $11.00!!! YEAH for me!!!!

I also got Bekah some knit pants and shirts. The pants were $2.18 and the shirts $1.78. I got Jeremiah a pair of jeans for $4.18, and then because I was feeling so generous I got myself a couple of shirts for $5.00. Grand Total $45.00 give or take some cents!!!

Oh I was excited!!!!!

Just thought I'd share my excitement!!!!!
