So I know our blog is always about getting stuff for free, almost free, or with a great discount. But not everything in life you need (or maybe want) is going to be free or discounted. So I thought it would be fun to do a post about those items that you actually paid full price for but were worth every penny!

I’m sure there have been a few things, but the most recent purchase was our new kitchen plates!  We bought these at Target for $49.99 for a 16pc set (I bought 4 sets so we can have thes for years to come).  Every time I eat on them, I feel like I’m at some trendy upscale restaurant! It automatically makes my food look and taste 100% better!  Honestly, I’m far from being “America’s Next Top Chef” but when I put my spaghetti or chicken salad on this plate, I sure feel like I am!  Lol

I’d love to hear about your “splurge” purchases and just how much you love them! Maybe it’s that fav pair of jeans, that picture in your living room, that photo shoot with your baby, that new bed set, etc. Anything! I’d love to hear about it!

Hey gang! Here are the deals I got at Walgreens this morning.  Hopefully you’ll still be able to head in and snag them yourself!

So after it was all said and done (and for some reason I struggled to get everything right this time), I spent $35.41 (after RR)! The retail value would have been $55.62! That’s a 32% savings. So I’m not crazy extreme, but it’s money I would have spent anyway!  I always try to never get anything I don’t need because you usually have to pay sales tax even if the item is free!
