So, how did I do for my first $10 Target trip? This was hard for me! I love Target and always spend like $50 plus every time I go there. And if I am being completely honest, I completely failed...twice.
So, the first time I went to Target I took one look at the dollar spot and knew this would not be my $10 trip. It was just fully stocked and had the cutest Easter/Farmhouse stuff. And if it's one thing I have learned about our Target it's to grab the dollar spot stuff while it's there. It definitely will not be there the next time you go back. So, I stocked up and scored these beauties...


Metal trays, cute candle holders, a white bunny, light up easter egg lights, a tablerunner, chalkboard and Easter sign & tree...how could I pass those up?
I went back to Target two days later and tried really, really hard, but still couldn't do it. I found the cutest things to start Mason's Easter basket! And I knew I had to scoop those up before they were gone, too. I mean, most of everything I purchased just two days before was already gone! That's how fast it goes in my area. I guess it's because we have the only target in our area. Anyhow, here is what I bought at my 2nd ten dollar target trip attempt.


So, I did better on my 2nd attempt, but still failed. I guess I will have to try again next month!
Did you join in on this? How did you do?
hahah you're too funny. I loooved the dollar spot for Easter. I got nothing though. My husband was a debbie downer. I'm itching to go back for Easter basket goodies.
ReplyDeleteBahaha ha! I love it! I am so, so glad that they hadn't put out all of the cute Easter stuff yet when I went the day after Valentines. Otherwise I probably would have done the same exact thing.
ReplyDeleteThanks for linking up!
That's so neat that it's a link up. I saw this on another blog and tried to do this yesterday and I spent $50! hahah Total fail. Evan picked out that tmnt balloon as well.
ReplyDeleteYou scored on that Easter Farmhouse stuff! So cute! I'm going to try this next month. I think it's pure genius that it took you a couple of tries to do it, too! I can explain five or six $10 trips to Target to my husband a lot easier than a $60 trip for no reason!! :)
ReplyDeleteCash & I did some damage on Friday. We are going back tomorrow...
ReplyDeleteHa ha!! I love how honest you were about not meeting the goal! I'm the same way. And now I HAVE to go to Target to get some of those amazingly cute things.
ReplyDeleteI could never do the $10 trip! With our target being 20 minutes away, I stock up! I never get out of there under $100... So you did better than me! And we got Noah those gardening tools from the dollar section too! Our target is the same way, you have to grab it or else it will be gone the next time.
ReplyDeleteLol it's not your fault. It's near impossible to make it out of Target under 10$ because everything is so darn cute!! Plus if it's a good deal that means you get to buy double the stuff, right?!?!
ReplyDeleteYou got some good stuff so failing at the $10 challenge isn't that bad! I need to do this challenge just to have an excuse to go to Target!

ReplyDeleteYour honesty is awesome! I went to Target today and spent way over $10! Thanks for linking up!
ReplyDeleteI'm super excited about all the Easter stuff coming in! You may have "failed" the price point but you got amazing things!
ReplyDeleteCute stuff!! :)
ReplyDeletehey, at least you spent ten dollars less the second time! btw I wanted to buy Avi a gardening set similar to the one you bought, but I ended up buying only the tools.
ReplyDeleteThis is so much fun!!!! :)
ReplyDeleteYou are so right!! You HAVE to get the stuff from the dollar spot when you see it because otherwise it's for sure gone. I do the same thing!! Looks like Mason scored some awesome stuff though :) And you're Easter decorations are going to be amazing!
ReplyDeleteThat's the hardest part of this challenge - staying close to $10!! Some months it takes me a few tries to get it right. I haven't seen the Easter stuff yet, but I'm feeling like I definitely need to stop in and stock up. I'd love to find an Easter basket for my baby boy just in case he arrives before Easter and then find goodies for my daughter's basket :) I love all of your finds!
ReplyDeleteYou found some cute stuff!!! Our Dollar Spot is like yours - if you don't grab the stuff right away it's gone!
ReplyDeleteI love the idea of a $10 trip, but I just know I can't ad hear to that small amount.
I just went the other day for a few things and scored big time in Easter stuff! No shame in my game!
ReplyDeleteCute finds! $10 at Target is a nearly impossible task, I fully agree ;)
