Michaels Alert!!!!

Hello ladies...if you have a local MICHAELS then you need to head right over to their 5 for $1.00 SALE! Yes...you read that correctly...20 cents for some of the cutest items...most of them are Christmas but all of them...I came home with 33 items and only spent $6.60! This is part of their 80% off Christmas SALE...the items were part of their dollar section. I found more dollar sections in other areas of the store yesterday and had a FUN time there too. My daughter said that MICHAELS is beating TARGET in the dollar stuff...I agree. I'm going to try my best not to stop by there today on my way to work out at our church gym...but it sure is going to be really hard...wish me luck!


What a PRETTY little PEARL monogram...soooo many possibles!



Love these magnets...guess I should at only 10 cents each...WOW!



Polka Dot Christmas Note Cards...a girl can never have too many Note Cards!


What cute Wine Bottle Tags...the polka dot ones can be used year round!


Write down some of your favorite Christmas recipes and mail them in your Christmas Cards...your family and friends will love it!


Christmas ornaments for only 20 cents...these will make AWESOME NAME TAGS for next years gifts...they are wooden with fabric on the front...just sign the back and your done!


Dang...you can't go wrong only spending 20 cents on these wooden words...I'm going to paint some of them for using in wreaths and add ribbon to some for ornaments.


Loving all this glitter!


These little tin stars are just too stinkin cute...soooo I went way out on them and spent 25 cents each!

    I took advantage of that sale the other day too! It was awesome! Fun kid's toys too...

    I got the monogram pearl too...isn't it pretty?! And 25 cents?!! :D I bough handfuls of those little boxed candles too for a quarter. FUN! You got some extra goodies that I missed somehow.

    Thanks for your words of encouragement. I always love seeing your blog and your photos of your girls. I think I may have told you already, but I have two girls - soon to be 16 and 21! They know lots of cute friends who go to Auburn!

    I love the letters and I love the stars...wow...they make my creative juices flow.
    Thank you for sharing and have fun creating.
    Be sure to come back and show us what you are going to do...

    We have a similar sale at Michael's in Canada too. I got the polka dot note cards, some other note cards, Snowflake envelopes and 4 pack of fancy file folders, 25 cents each. The stars are the ones I used on my cowboy Christmas tree but I paid before Christmas, I think, $1.49 for most of them.

    Hmmm, I would love some of the notecards and recipe cards. And Michael's is in the same shopping center as our Hallmark store. Guess I need to get my tail up there tomorrow. I hope they have some of the same items that you got.

    Thanks for stopping by Applejack Lane. I enjoyed your comments.

    Bummer I went to Hobby Lobby when I went to the city this past weekend. I had been to Michael 3 or 4 times before Christmas so I wanted to see what was new at the other place. I think I must of made a mistake. Great finds!

    Linda, thank you for your visit and sweet comment! Although we live in Texas, my favorite place on earth is the beloved Gulf Coast of Alabama and Florida...so you have won my heart and I will be following your blog!! Anyone who is lucky enough to live there...I want to be friends with! We plan our trip each summer and I look forward to the next year before we even leave the beach each summer. Thanks for finding me.

    I know! I have made a few trips to Michaels and could not believe that the items were 20cents each!! I spent about $6 too. I also picked up a huge bottle of Martha Stewart glitter for $3 and 3 bottle of her glitter for $4. WOW!!

    However, my local Target which is right next to Michaels does not have a $1.00 section. Where in the store is yours located?
