I loves me some Target!

I needed a bag to bring to work that would carry my stuff. My stuff being whatever book I'm reading, my lunch, my gazillion snacks, my water and whatever bills I need to pay.  I had a little bag for a while, but I had a little mishap with my lunch one day.  My salad dressing spilled all over the bottom of my bag and ruined it.  I guess I could have washed it, but it was just too gross to keep around all day at work.  Soooo, after a few weeks of trying to beat my husband to left over shopping bags (he's got stuff to bring to work too), I finally broke down and went on the hunt for a new work bag. 
I went to my favorite store of all time........TARGET!!!  I did find a few cute bags, including this one:

It was on sale, but I wasn't that crazy about it.  I held onto it and wandered over the the dollar bins. (Those bins are my favorite part of Target!)  There were a few bags, but they were huge and see thru. Not exactly my taste, not that this bag was my style either.  I then spotted two green handles sticking out from the bottom of one of the bins.  I pulled on the handles and found the perfect bag.  Here it is:

                                      

 And it was only a DOLLAR!!!! How can you go wrong with a dollar?!  I am quite thrilled with my purchase.  Dare I say I can't wait for work tomorrow to show it off?                                                

My Target impulse purchase!

So after a long week at work, I decided some retail therapy would be good. I had a few necessities to pick up from Target so while there I figured I'd stroll around. Wondering past the home clearance section, this gorgeous vase captured my gaze.

Isn't the color amazing! And that price! It says $4.98. That's right, $4.98! You just can't beat that price. I loved the shape of the vase and instantly knew a quick run to Michael's was in the near future for me. After all, it's spring and my home needs "Jeanine proof" flowers. (that's fake flowers for those of you who are unaware of my non-existant green thumb).

So, after my trip to Michael's (with my coupon of course!), here's the finished product! I love that it just screams spring! I think the yellow flowers add a nice surprise too.

HAPPY SPRING EVERYONE!
