1-Spot Shopping
| It's no secret that I love Target. So much so that for the most part I had to stop shopping there, because every time I went I was overcome with temptation to spend money on things I don't really need. However, on occasion, if I want to treat myself, I'll let myself go in with $10 and go crazy in the 1-Spot. If you don't know what the 1-Spot is, it's the little section at the front of the store where they sell everything for a dollar. Well, it used to be everything for a dollar. They've changed it to "nothing over $2.50." Still, you can get some pretty great stuff there. During some of my 1-Spot Sprees I've scored the following:
...and much more. Most recently, I picked up this stuffed puppy dog that made a perfect topper for the diaper cake I made for my sister's baby shower. I saw a lot of other baby items there that day, too, but as I had already blown my budget shopping elsewhere, I left them alone. :( My husband has put a moratorium on my 1-Spot shopping, especially for household items, until after we move, saying we've got enough to pack as it is. Once we do move, though, I know where I'll go first for household odds & ends and small decorating touches. I love the 1-Spot, even more than the dollar store. What about you, dear reader? What kind of 1-Spot treasures have you scored? |
