I’ve been LOVING being back to shopping at multiple stories, playing the drugstore game, and finding deals to share with you all in-store! If you are not following me on Instagram or TikTok, I share there in real-time the deals I’m getting and finding!

Target Deals
I was excited about a few deals that I found while shopping the Target Halloween Clearance.
I got Betty Crocker Pumpkin Cookie Mix marked down to $0.87 per bag and Imagine Ink pads marked down to $0.49 each!! My kids love these for road trips, for sitting on the sidelines at sports games, for doctor’s offices, and more!
I’m only counting the Cookie Mix toward my groceries (we already made one batch and brought it to dinner with friends and everyone enjoyed them!) — so that was about $2 out of pocket with tax.
I also got La Columbe Cold Brew completely free after iBotta cash back at Target! But I’m still going to count my out-of-pocket expense of $5.49 + $0.37 tax = $5.86 out of pocket
