Fun Shopping

I love the purple notebook it has cute little cupcakes on it. Not that you can see them :/ 

While we were in Adelaide I had to go to Spotlight.  After all it was only a few minutes from Vicki's place and I wanted to get some yarn to use on the train trip home. 

I think I got a bit excited about being in the store, our closest one at home is almost an hours drive away & I didn't know when I would be near a Spotlight again, so I bought some supplies for my bullet journalling. I did behave though as I wanted to purchase so much more but I didn't dare too. After all I needed to find room to bring this stuff back in our luggage and some things that I was given that belonged to my Dad as well. As it was I needed to buy a new bag to put it all in.

Spotlight Shopping Haul

Brodz and I went in to Spotlight yesterday. The Boxing Day sales have started after all.

I wasn't able to get everything I wanted. I'm thinking I need to shop online but I did pick up a couple of bargains.

I wasn't going to purchase any yarn but Brodie convinced me to get some. I can't complain though the pack that I chose, a cream/off white colour, was around 33% off.

I also bought some material, flat fats, pens and elastic. 

Not sure what I will do with this star tray though. Maybe Angus can make mini cakes or we could just use it for biscuits or ice. Who knows.

Not Sew Easy ...

My sewing patterns have all arrived. Now I just need to learn how to sew 😂😂

Yarn Stash Addition

Spotlight has a 40-50% off yarn sale at the moment.

I oohed and ahhed at the caron yarn cakes, which were 40% off, but I couldn't justify buying them when I had my lovely ice yarn skeins sitting in my stash.  However, I did give them my cheek test and they felt soooo soft and squishy!

I chose some marvel yarn, spot savers and a couple of mill ends (these were 50% off)
I love how I managed to save over $22. 

Mark was with me. He is such an enabler. I was only going to choose one mill end but he said grab another, especially since they are half price. I can't complain about that now can I? (~_o) 

My Spotlight Adventure

Last week I managed to go to Spotlight. This is my new addition to my yarn stash.

I needed the purple for my temperature blanket, especially since I have completed so many rows with this colour. I didn't want to run out. I am hoping that four will be plenty due to the fact that I am decreasing the rows each day.

This lot was all 30% off. The bags alone normally cost $10, which in itself is a bargain, but to get them for $6.99 was a BONUS! Lots of crochet and knitting hours in this collection.

More Yarn For My Stash

I ordered all of this on Tuesday morning and it arrived Thursday morning. How FAST is that!?!

You gotta love that when something you bought online arrives so quickly.

The lighter green yarn at the front is for my temperature blanket. As is the orange yarn below that I ordered from a seller on ebay. The rest is being added to my stash.
