$4 and change

Wednesday I went shopping at the Irvine Spectrum to meet up with some gals from the Babycenter.
So while I was there I decided to finally exchange my Mother’s Day soap. If you are just tuning in, you can look it up in my archives. I went to Old Navy first and found more of there $6.99 pj’s for Belen. I know, I know, their stuff is really cheap. But by the time she wears it out she will have outgrown it. But their stuff has been a dream and I forget how CHEAP it all is. I bought the world’s most comfortable skirts, so of course I had to have one in every color. The t’s are just as soft and comfy. They wont wrinkle and they pack well so they are going with me to Kentucky. Anyway, back to shopping. I returned $32 worth of bar soap to Anthpologie and I got a store credit. Belen has been asking me for a white puppy and a baby elephant for about a month now and we just so happen to find those in the store. The puppy wasn’t white but it was love at first sight and she was willing to compromise. Something she rarely does so it was worth it. The baby elephant is a Jelly Cat and pink so double score. I figure $28 is a lot cheaper than an actual white puppy and an elephant would do so much damage to our grass. Being a two year old is a wonderful thing.
But now I am stuck with a $4 and change store credit. What to get? I looked at their aprons, but I don’t really want to pay $38 for something I can make, probably not as cute as theirs but I pass. The candles are divine but I have a lot of candles. One Cheryl just gave me that makes me feel like a “na-tu-ral wo-man”. So, if you have a need for a $4 and change credit at Anthroplogie, my favorite over-priced store than please leave me a comment pleading your case. If my whimsical nature likes what I read you will be getting a card within 5-10 business days.
