Hello, everybody! Sorry for the Weekend Update delay, I had a killer migraine yesterday. ๐ฆ But it’s gone now! Come see what I did this weekend! ๐
On Saturday, I decided that I wanted to splurge on some yummy chocolates, so I went to See’s Candy and bought some Springtime Truffles! They had dark chocolate raspberry and lemon filling inside of them! Mmmmm… Good stuff! ๐
Sorry about the random cat hair. LOCKitty Amelia sheds a lot , so fur is always getting everywhere. ๐
Then I went to Clothing Revival to see if they had a pair of shorts there that I liked! And sheeeeesh, their clothing must have been for 8-12 year olds because all of their clothes were so short and silly… I managed to find a pair of exercise shorts that fitted nicely and I had, keyword ‘had’, a $5.00 off coupon for them, but I left it in the dressing room that somebody else went and used, so Iย couldn’t go back in and get it. Boy, did that make my blood boil. ๐ก I’m sure some of my readers know how that is when you lose something precious to you when every penny counts. Having a good deal and then losing it… Sheesh. ๐ฆ
After Clothing Revival, I went to Goodwill and bought a sun hat and a plastic green basket for my hygiene supplies on my bathroom counter. When I saw the green basket at Goodwill, I decided that I was going to be the person that saved it from the dump and make use of it in my home. So I did just that. ๐ The sun hat was for a Luffy cosplay from the manga series, One Piece. I tried my hardest to make the hat look nice with pieces of red ribbon around the top of it like Luffy’s hat, but the hat is just a little too small for my head, haha. ๐ But it’s fine since it was just for a cheap costume prop. ๐
After heading home from the store, I also read the rest of March Comes in Like a Lion manga series and I am OFFICIALLY all caught up to the latest manga volume now and I am SO PUMPED! Man, that Japanese comic book series is great! Also, I was able to gather more source material from a character that stars in a piece of fanfiction that I wrote about him, so I was able to improve his character in my fanfiction that I wrote about the manga series. ๐ It flows so well now. โค
Money Spent on Saturday
- Sun Hat – $3.19
- Plastic Green Basket – $0.69
- See’s Candy Springtime Truffles – $7.75
- Exercise Shorts – $7.67
Total Amount Spent:ย $19.30
On Sunday, I went to my favorite seamstress’ house to get my size 14 pants hemmed! These size 14 pants are designer jeans I bought at Goodwill for 7 bucks each and they look so good on me! ๐ But the pant legs on all of them are way too long, so I budgeted money for them this month so they could be hemmed! Now I waiting until they are fixed up so I can finally wear them and put away my size 16 pants for good because I’m planning on never being that size again! ๐
I also went to the Frugalpants Grocery Store for some cheap groceries, but had to buy some household supplies which ran my total up over 30 bucks. T _T I try to keep my grocery bill under $30.00 usually, so whenever I go over 30 bucks, it huuuuurts. ๐ฆ I also bought some chocolate there as well, but seeing that the chocolate I bought will probably not taste good after buying the same brand at the dollar store, I will be taking it back. Can’t waste precious calories on bad chocolate. > _>
I also went to the Spendypants Thrift Store and bought myself a PINK bag that was from Victoria’s Secret! Before buying it though, I looked it over since it was covered in sequins to see if anything was damaged on the bag and everything looked mostly fine! So I purchased it! ๐ It is such a cute bag and I will probably use it when I go on trips and stuff like that. I would never buy a PINK branded bag from Victoria’s Secret for full price, but I will pay a discount for it, haha. ๐
After the Spendypants Thrift Store, I stopped at Dollar Tree for St. Patrick’s Day cards and a few other things and then I went home and relaxed. ๐
