BARGAIN TIME

You all know I love a bargain.  I usually try to hit the stores in the days after a holiday to see if there is anything we can't live without, LOL!

With Dia de los Muertos last week, I stopped by HEB where they always have great decorations every season (and for every holiday, ha) to look for the usual "after the holiday" sale.

Got these three wooden picture frames and since pictures of loved ones who have passed are an important part of the tradition, I had to get these for us.  We'll use one for his parents, one for mine, and one for the kitties who have crossed over.

These awesome melamine type plastic platters, each about 16" on the max width. They will go well with one we got last year from a sweet friend of the farm.

Some light up LED skull lights (made of thick lucite type plastic) on a strand.  Too fun!

You know me...

Dish towels...

'nuff said.

Sink drying mats.  Because, who wouldn't want an awesome sink drying mat on the counter that matches your kitchen towels?!

Last year, we got the one on the right with the yellow.  We use it year round when 2nd Man makes tortillas.  When I saw the purple one, at first I thought, well, we already have one, we don't really need another one.  Then I realized, since we often have both flour AND corn tortillas for the same meal, one for each!

Sold!

I had to make sure 2nd Man got something else fun too.  The baking liners are great for some cupcakes and muffins and then a favorite find, these non-stick, embossed cookie pans.  They are designed to make large cookies, like sugar cookies perhaps, and when you turn them out, they have the imprinted details for decorating.  I flipped one over so you could see.  I got two since they were so inexpensive and cooking two at once would make more sense.  Very cool.

Got all of this for $16.75!
