x-border bargains!

With a few malls and a great big Wal-Mart (Wait a minute... Why is Wal-Mart so much better in the states?), shopping was a major part of the plan this past weekend in Burlington.

Some of our best bargains:
  • White long maternity pants from Old Navy for $5! ($5 pants are unhead of for me, never mind mat pants!)
  • A cute striped t-shirt for $7
  • Maternity tops for $5 each
  • An adorable brown OshKosh onesie for $0.76!
Other pretty decent bargains:
  • New dinnerware with place settings for six
  • Measuring/mixing bowl with spout
  • An insulated cookie sheet (Why is it easier to justify items like this when you're on a holiday?)
  • Sunglasses that Tom has been searching for for a while
What made them even better bargains:
  • The border patrol waving us through, not requiring us to pay duty on the items even though we were over our $50 limit a piece for one night away.
Freebie we picked up along the way:
  • A nasty head cold, but so worth it for a weekend away with my man!

nice to get maternity clothes at a bargain, they can get pretty pricey in the great white. My most used mat pants during pregnancy were from Old Navy too :)
