Well, ended up buying clothes.. and kitchen stuff from the seattle outlets. also picked up a bunch of baby clothes from there. lots on 70% off from the store there. Bought a bunch of tongs and utensils for cooking.
Have I mentioned I hate lineups yet?
Bought a GPS navigator thingy. Also bought a bunch of groceries.
Oh, also bought some nice glass pitchers and pint glasses from Ross.

Starfishie bought a bunch of nice tops and jeans. Finally.
I hate lineups.

Bought 2 bottles of tequila to bring back.. both cost 36 bucks together incl tax. Good deal when you consider that a 1.14 litre bottle costs 49.95 in the BCL plus tax.
Ive discovered that the best bang for the buck in hard stuff is tequila.. A bottle of Rum or Vodka costed 16-18 bucks a bottle at teh duty free, while at the BCL they are around 39 bucks.

LOL! Hi LM and PC..
Um, unless Starfishie is keeping something from me (wouldnt be the first time), no. :(  Not yet.
They are for friends of ours that had a boy last week. We couldnt think what to get them and thought of them when we saw the baby clothes.

Oh alright.  I'll believe you too.

If I have to.  

I was hoping for a jucier story.

Bought a fleece sweater ($42) and a hat ($10) at MEC this weekend.

Got Heckyl and Jeckyl some snow pants on sale at Sport Check ($47 ea).

Groceries, gas.

  Hey- went a bit overboard on drinks.

Was apparently thirsty while at Safeway- came home with 2 huge boxes of tea and 3 cases of pop.

  The tea was a major steal- $7.68 for the large box.  On sale 2 for $8.

Let me clarify- 7.68 was the regular price.  On sale, 2 boxes for $8!!

  Wow....good deal !!!

I haven't bought anything yet, but Sweet Sawdust chose his annual gift card from work for Homesense....  and gave it to me.      He usually gets Home Depot.

You went to the Black Friday shopping, Russ?  You are so brave!  I would never go because I hate crowds and long lineups no matter how cheap anything is.  It drives me nuts!!

I purchased these fleece pants on clearance for $8 and two plain tees for $10 from Costco.  LOVE my pants.... so soft and comfy and warm.
