finding a good deal

Whenever I go to target I always make sure to cruise the endcaps that have clearance items. I don't always find good deals there, but every so often I DO!

Like for example, 2 years ago I found this mangled up, unfolded and in an unmarked bag black mass of fabric. Marked at $7.97. What was it?

It was a black couch cover. Something I had been holding out for for over a year. Deals like that are most definitely once in a lifetime and I've wished to find another couch cover to match since then but haven't found one on sale or regularly priced for that matter since then.

But today my friends, was another one of those days.

I was cruising the clearance caps (in all honesty for a birthday present for my mom ;) when I came across these.





Originally they were $69.77 and were on sale for $16.98. I just love the pattern and they are square! I loooove square dishes.

There ends the tale of my deal-finding today. Finding good deals like this can make any day seem a little brighter :)
