Today however, I went with my cousin on a last minute mall-run. For the longest time I've had "hand soap" on my list of things I need to stock up on (my kitchen soap and bathroom soap are almost out!) so we went into Bath and Body Works. I missed out on a free travel size sample over the weekend but I was too lazy to drive my butt to the mall just to get soap. Anyway, I searched for any coupons online with my phone while I was in the store and lucky us, we found a 20% off coupon. I purchased 4 foam hand soaps that were already on sale at 4 for $15 and with 20% off the total was $13+change. My cousin purchased some yummy smelling candles on sale for 2 for $22 and with 20% off it was -$4.00. Can't wait to hear what she thinks about her summery candles.
Since I've last blogged, I've made a few "good" purchases. I purchased two wedding gifts for my friends from college that are both having their weddings in July 2013. **If either of you ladies are reading this post, stop reading unless you want to know what we got you for your gift!** It's pretty exciting hearing about the details of their wedding planning. I was able to find great deals at Kohls.com (where they are NOT registered). One of the girls registered for a KitchenAid mixer, the other girl did not, but I am assuming she would love one anyway. Haha. I know she bakes here and there, and...who wouldn't want a KitchenAid mixer, right?! I know I would. I tend to get people things off their registry that I think I would want myself. Hahaha. The girl had different items on her registry but because she had just started her registry, there weren't many big ticket items on it so I made the ultimate decision to get her something that would (hopefully) last throughout the years. My only concern is that the one I got her is the Classic kind which is WHITE. This girl loves the color black. (I got the other girl the exact type of mixer she wanted...the Artisan kind in glossy black). July is a busy month for me with the two weddings (Southern California, here we come!) but I am glad to be visiting San Diego again! This time, I will bring only one suitcase (if I end up flying) and one empty one so I can go shopping! Last time, my poor boyfriend had to over-stuff his suitcase just because I decided I needed 4 yoga pants and 8 tank tops. They are so cheap and I needed work out clothes. (Now I don't work out anymore, I just wear them to lounge in the house and the tank tops under my scrubs...) Maybe I'll finally get to working out so I can be fit for the wedding. I am still aiming for Britney's abs pre-babies, anyone with me?
Other than that, when I was in Vegas last month (surprised?) I was at H&M and a friend introduced me to the Wrapp smartphone app and I saw my cousin had gifted me $10 to use! I purchased 2 stacks of rings, one in gold and one in silver, red nail polish, and a cobalt blazer which I only paid $6.50 out of pocket. Whee! Since purchasing those items last month, I've only worn the blazer...whoops. The rings I purchased were XS since my fingers are pretty alien-like but it seems like my knuckles are pretty big so it's a pain to get them on. I could exchange/return them but have I mentioned I'm lazy?
Anyway, those were my latest purchases that I can think of. Time for bed. Long day tomorrow... we have a one hour seminar with our instructor, then clinic for 3 hours, and then tutoring the first years on their instruments... Isn't it bad that I barely picked up a scaler for the first time since November? That's what happens when the instructor makes a "random" schedule where I was stuck in x-rays for the last 2 weeks of school last quarter and the first 2 weeks this quarter. I feel like a newbie!
