I woke up Saturday to “Mom…mom…mom” while being poked in the back….”mom mom are we still going shoe shopping? Oh yea, that got me up and going, it was music to my ears. He actually wanted new sneakers but shoe shopping in any shape, fashion or form is a good day. I had two DSW coupons for $25.00 off my next purchase as well as a balance on a gift card so that’s where we were headed but first we stopped at Burlington Coat Factory. Malik is still on the Graduated License program for supervised driving so I was a passenger on this mission.
He found a pair of Cadillac sneakers for $25.00 (yea Malik) but also 2 jackets and a watch, me…nothing but pictures which I will post later. I’m not sure if they are pairing down the shoe department or waiting for the Fall collections, but they really didn’t have anything that called out “buy me buy me”. The price of the sneakers and jackets wasn’t bad but the cashier asked if I would complete a phone survey, for which I would receive 20% off the highest priced item. Sure, so after completing the survey she re-rang one of the jackets saving me an additional $15.00. It’s a a Good Day!
Next we drove over to DSW, Malik didn’t find anything but I found a cute pair of Chinese Laundry suede pumps for less than $10.00! They were on clearance, 30% off $49.94, and using my two coupons and gift card nothing came out of my wallet, Saturday Shoe Shopping with Son was a VERY good day!!
Tayair’s Birthday Dinner
Posted June 24, 2012
on:I am still trying to come to grips with the fact that my oldest son is now 20 years old. Although he had been diagnosed as being mentally challenged there are so many things that he can do and does well, including driving. His birthday gift was a Tom Tom GPS from Best Buy to give him more comfort when driving to new destinations. Expanding his world giving him more freedom and us a sense of security made it the best gift, although he probably would have preferred a splash party like the ones he had when he was younger!
His choice for dinner was Ruby Tuesdays and I had a $10.00 gift card so of course it was a good choice for me as well!
