The store that is! Today we rode up to Nashua to make a “BJs run” (as we call it). There were a few things we needed and I had coupons for most of them. Brinley loves going there because its so big and they have a pretty great book selection for her too. They also have some cute clothes there for her. We went up to get some of the usual staple items – toilet paper, dishwasher tabs, Poland Spring waters, and trash bags. Today was also a “sample” day where you get to try out some of the products. Usually they offer some strange things but today we got to try Elio’s Pizza and Tyson Buffalo Wings! We got Brinley an awesome Little Einstein’s sticker book.

My favorite buy of the day was a rug for her room. Its about 4 ft. by 5.5 ft. and it matches her room perfectly. I don’t think we could have found a more perfect match if we tried. (We were not even looking for a rug for her. I just knew that when I saw it we had to get it because it was so perfect.) It has all of the colors that her room has – pink, yellow, purple, blue, white – and its a perfect size. I was never a fan of putting an area rug over a carpeted room but this rug has made me a fan. It really brightens up the space and ties everything together. Too bad it took us two years to come across it. Brinley absolutely loves it too. She has been running around on it all day and naming all the colors. The best part – it was only $39!

Beyond the rug, we managed to SAVE a total of $18 today at BJs by using coupons. I’m not a huge coupon clipper (maybe I should start) but I always flip through the BJs coupon booklet we get in the mail. If I’m lucky I usually find 2 that I can use. Today I had a coupon for diapers, wipes, waters, toilet paper and the dishwasher tabs. It was a very productive day.
