05/26/2003 Archived Entry: "good shopping"

Tonight, Chris and I did some shopping by ourselves after we went out to dinner. We were looking at bedding sets since it looks like we are getting Tabitha's new bed this week. We didn't buy anything as we didn't find anything that we loved but we some some quilts that we'll consider. We also stopped in at Toys 'R Us and decided to get some more figures for Tabitha's Magic Castle. They are kind of hard to find now because Fisher Price discontinued them and now make Rescue Heroes which Tabitha isn't interested in. Anyway, we picked up Cyclops, a wizard and witch set, and a ghost set. We expected the total to be $18.00 pretax. Well, they are marked waaaaay down and our total was only $8.00! What a deal! So then we headed to Wal-Mart and I found a Halloween exclusive Mr. Potato Head and a clearance priced Care Bear toy so we had to get those. We put the Potato Head away since he's Halloween, but gave Tabitha the other toys. She is very excited and right now the Care Bears are alternating being beaten by Cyclops and being welcome guests at the Magic Castle. Rather interesting to hear her play to say the least. Now we just need to get the rest of the Great Adventurers toys before they're all gone. Hopefully we can get to the Mattel outlet store this week and also a couple different Toys 'R Us's. Our whole family is toy obsessed, what can I say?
