So…..it’s probably not a secret, that I have been out a time or two with someone that I met “on-line”. When you sign up for an account on one of these “on-line services” (that sounds so naughty)…you have to complete a questioner. They ask all kinds of questions about you like:
What color is your hair? Red, Brown, Blond, Black, Hair, what hair? (it really does say that.)
What is your body type? Thin, athletic, average, enough of me to love, maybe I should loose a few.
What are your hobbies? Dancing, Cooking, Pornography (it doesn’t say that….but it should), travel, serving others, water skiing, painting…and the list goes on and on and on.
The one hobby that they don’t mention is the hobby I love the most! It’s the hobby that makes my heart beat a little faster and can put a smile on my face faster thank just about anything else……..Well here….let me just show you…..
Anyone recognize where that is from? Did I hear “TARGET”? That’s right! And if you’re like me….you know where these are! It’s all about the end caps baby! You can find all sorts of stuff to heal all kinds of ailments on end caps……and if the price is right….it’s going home with me! The problem is, sometimes I get so excited about finding such an amazing deal on something……it doesn’t even matter what it is! Take this little orange sticker that caught me eye:
I don’t care what is behind it…..it’s going home with me…..whether I need it or not! Because what I need….is actually just a good deal! At the end of the day…..if someone were to do a study on the “deals” I get…they would probably come to the conclusion that I’d have better odds in Vegas! Because I never really put the items to much use!
The item behind the orange sticker shown above is pictured below:
Folks, I need a “Six Piece Miniature Sauce Boat” set like I need a hole in the head? What would I intend to do with six miniature sauceboats? I do come up with some pretty amazing ideas! If only 1% of the ideas that I’ve had, had come to fruition……there would be world peace….I am sure of it!
But, it’s not just about me! My “Target Hobby” has been blessing the lives of others for years. Take this stool in this picture for example:
I saw it……50%…..It wasn’t for me…but it was for my good friend “TW” (AKA “I am Who I am” or "Construction Worker Guy". A couple of these stools would look great at the bar in his kitchen and they seemed to have his name written all over them. “I’ll wait till they go 75% off” I thought to myself…. "if their still there…..It’s a sign”! I hope I did the right thing!
So today’s visit was interrupted with a phone call and my trip was terminated prior to grazing the whole store. I did walk away with two $40.00 backpacks (That I paid $10.00 each for….Merry Christmas Ellery and Ben) and two Superman Lunch Boxes (Not sure who they are for yet...but somebody's gonna need one and at $2.48...who could pass them up!!
I’ll be back!

You have MY heart racing! What a deal on the gravy thingys...I am sure you will find a use...wedding gift? Mini planters? So, I must know...were there any girly lunch sacks?
Wow!I can't believe the deals! You know how I love the end caps!I really dig the Superman lunch boxes....it would go really well with my supergirl lamp from Dave and Busters??
And if I ever find my one and only, I'd also really love the mini gravy boats as a shower gift! Turns out I like my own portion of fattening sauces, whether it be coagulated gravy or hot fudge! I think they are genius idea!!
Thanks for making me smile! :)
I thought about the planter idea Gini-k....but the problem is....unless we drilled holes in them.....we wouldn't have the proper irrigation to sustain life! Although.....I did just buy a new power drill....
As far as girl lunch sacks......not per say....although the did have some cute unisex ones.....mostly primary colors!
Did you know that you can take any item to the cashier and they can tell you where (actually which stores) have more of that item and how many they have???? Pretty cool!
Kimmy (aka SpecialK)....I have got to head over to the Target and pick up those mini-Ature gravy boats for you......cause I gotta hunch it wont be long until you find your one and only! I just know it! (Hopefully it won't be to "River-Runs-Thru It".....Maybe "Choose the Right Guy" or "Cute New Ward Guy".)
