My shopping list was probably different than most shoppers' today.
I went for.60/roll ribbon at Michael's:
AND...my early Christmas present! I got the second to the last one at Lowes and felt like I won the jackpot. A portable air compressor/nailer! It was $60, and then I had a $10 coupon from the mail. We haven't decided on a house yet and we may rent for awhile, but I really can't wait to shoot the first nail.
All of my neighbors are putting Christmas up and it makes me a little sad that we're not (since we're moving in 3 WEEKS!!) I'm still going to pull out a few things, but I've got to remind myself that whatever I pull out, I'll have to pack up....
I hope you're having a wonderful weekend~
The air compressor...Now I'm depressed! I forgot to go to Lowes! Great finds Melissa!
ReplyDeleteAwww, I have been wanting that air compressor!!! Geez, how did I miss that deal?????
ReplyDeleteI love my nail gun, but I have to use it with our large air compressor, luckily I have a really long hose that will let me take the nail gun in the house!
I really want a compound miter saw for christmas, but since I have a regular miter saw i doubt Santa is going to oblige. One can dream though...LOL
We moved at Christmas one year. I bought a small tree and decorations and used that for our family tree. When we moved, we gave the decorated tree away - no packing and the other person enjoyed a special treat!
ReplyDeleteGreat minds think alike! ;) I got both the .99 poinsettias AND the .60 ribbon too!! Great deals. Fun too...
ReplyDeleteI didn't leave the house today because I stayed in watching The Godfather for the first time, but I wish I would've thought of those places, because I would've gone for that! So sad (but happy for you) about the compressor--I've been wanting one! Maybe I'll see if I can still salvage something tomorrow at Lowe's (I know, fat chance . . . .).
ReplyDeleteLove the ribbon choice, and the nail gun to cool. I just hung my wreath on my door and added garland around my door and then of coarse added the large poinsetta's to the garland. Come and visit me sometime. ;)
ReplyDeletegreat deals! good luck with your move too....
ReplyDeletesounds like my kinda shopping list.
ReplyDeleteI bet you'll be nailing stuff all over the place soon.
Oh, that's so hard to move right before the holidays. I totally understand. I hope you find a great home, soon, so you can start shooting those nails and sharing it all with us.
ReplyDelete60 cents for ribbon? I'm going to run not walk to Michaeals. Thanks for sharing the great deal! :)
ReplyDeleteI got a bunch of ribbon at Michaels too :o)
ReplyDeleteI love Black Friday!!
Michael's and Home depot (for their 99 cent pointsettias) were the two stores I didn't make it to yesterday. Sigh, this week to Michael's at least- gotta. get. some. ribbon.
ReplyDeleteAwesome! I would have went for the ribbon too. And that nailer looks amazing! I didn't even go out today, I am in a shopping slump. Now I am having second thoughts that I see all of the good deals...
ReplyDeleteXOOX

Oh...I didn't have Michaels on my list, but that is an awesome deal for ribbon! Great finds...love it!
ReplyDeleteI know it is a bad time to move and I am sorry you can not decorate. I hope you will get settled quickly wherever you end up and be able to enjoy Christmas! Have a wonderful day!
ReplyDeleteYour black Friday shopping looks a lot like mine... but I did not buy an air compressor... ha! Loved the ribbon I purchased at Micheal's... about 10 large rolls for under $20! Awesome! ~ kim
ReplyDeleteWe just moved too and I will not be putting up a Christmas tree. I will enjoy all the decorations online instead:)
ReplyDeleteWe're in the same boat. We're moving on the 22nd! And all our decorations are in storage. So we'll just make due with kids construction-paper decorations until then!
ReplyDeleteIt's all about what you make of it!
I wish I would have bought some ribbon at Michael's!
Oooh, I love the ribbons, especially the polka dots! Have fun pulling out a few of your favorite decorations, friend! Will you be in a new home before Christmas?
ReplyDeleteRight there with ya, babe! I'm only pulling out the stockings, and promised the kids we'd get a small tree (but we're decorating it a little different than we traditionally do because I don't want to pull out the boxes of ornaments) Moving at Christmas time isn't my favorite thing. Ah well.
ReplyDeleteHello sweet Melissa - Your black Friday sounded like mine! I went to Walmart for toilet paper and Red Bull and came out with the cutest 25" white Christmas tree, and a few ornaments that I wasn't planning on. I couldn't believe the good deals and the lines weren't long either.
ReplyDeleteGlad you got your gun!
Blessings,
Marie
