Happy Kids - Happy Mommy!

I admit it. Sometimes I buy movies for the kids that I am just as excited about seeing/owning. I may even buy movies, sometimes, that they will not be interested to see for a few years (e.g. Muppets from Space), but I am enjoying them now.
Before we moved to Texas, I was normally a Wal-Mart shopper when I needed household items. However, the nearest Wal-Mart is the most disgusting store and is filled with the most unsavory characters imaginable. I feel like I'm shopping in Angola Prison. So, after trying it out a couple of times when we first moved here...I have switched my business to Target. Complete with in-store Starbucks, this Target is a dream compared to the other. It is definitely worth the dollars & cents extra I may be paying. Anyway, Target always has a great selection of $5 family movies. It's great and I've been enjoying adding to our collection. I picked up Milo & Otis the other day. I LOVED that movie when I was younger. Watching a movie like that transports me back to my parents' living room. Sitting on the floor in front of the TV with my little brother & sister. Good times.
My Target trip was actually a mission to find a new chair for Victoria. We only have Victoria's rocking chair and Gabriel did not have anywhere to sit. They were fighting over the one seat. She is now the owner of a pretty pink bean bag!

Start watching your receipts...you may find that "low prices everyday" is BS meant for folks who have no other shopping choice.

Target is my god send. Granted, I do choose cities to live in that always make the "most expensive to live in" list. The babies are so adorable!
