WebKinz Extravaganza

For all you WebKinz nerds out there (like me) Friday was a great day! Hallmark was giving out a free WebKinz for every $10 you spent. SWEET! Megan and Sammy both had some money saved up, plus Megan had a birthday party that night, so it was time to stock up. Hallmark was opening up at 9:00 for the occasion, so being the fun, hip, awesome mom that I am ;] I told my kids I would let them come with me to buy the WebKinz then I would check them into school. Sammy opted to take the bus to school since it was soft pretzel for breakfast. Megan headed out with me. So we get there half an hour early with the other 4 moms and wait. More and more moms start to show up. I'm sure as soon as they got their kids off to school. Finally the door opens and they give us $5 coupons as we walk in. YES! We hurry and pick out all the WebKinz we want, I may or may not have bought myself another one. The cocker spaniel is so cute I couldn't resist. We bought eight animals and only spent $55! For those of you not familiar, they are $15 each regularly.
So I am a hero, Megan was only 1/2 hour late for school, I was only 15 minutes late for volunteering in Sammy's class, Sammy loved her pretzel, and we all love our new pets. Plus, I have a stash for future birthday gifts. Win win win for everyone!
