I thought it would be fun to spend the day getting all the freebies that food place and entertainment places give to you on your birthday. Several places I had to sign up for email notifications but still it was awesome, I got so excited about it that I had a schedule and folder with all the certificates in it. I like to be organized so it was fun for me to make our daily schedule.
Here is how the wonderful day went.
-Pedicures and manicures
-Dropped the car off to be deatiled inside and out/oil changed- This is about the time I realized I left my phone at the mani/pedi place- I was pretty much dying without it the whole day- you never realize how much you depend on it , even trying to find Jared in a store I had to go searching.
-Shopped at Kohls- which just so happened to be having a power hour sale and we got a ton of clothes for really good prices. The lady at checkout said that if we said that she was my friend she would give us 20% off our whole purchase! haha it was awesome! I also had $10 Kohls cash and a $5 off coupon. I was able to get 4 new shirts, and 2 cute fashion belts, and Jared got 4 new pairs of jeans with 4 belts.
-Picked the car up (which looked FABULOUS after being detailed) and headed to Walmart and Target to do some last minute Christmas shopping and errands! We are finally done shopping for Christmas! Yeah!
- Ate appetizers at BJ's Restaurant and got my FREE gluten-free Pizookie dessert
- Shopped at Ross where I purchased 2 more shirts and a pair of trouser jeans which look so proffessional and cute and I also bought my very first pairs of SKINNY JEANS!!! Weird I know, I bought them for the sole purpose of wearing these cute knee high boots that I bought on amazon( which have yet to come I might mention), I just can't get used to the fact of wearing them on my short stubby legs by themselves. But I got them for $13 bucks each. I LOVE ROSS!
- We then went to a few other stores- Steinmart, Famous Footwear, etc.
- DSW- have you ever been to DSW shoes? Oh my I wish I had never known it existed because I will be going there all the time now because I love their shoes. So so so so so many cute high heels, flats, boots, slippers, its a girl candy store! Jared bought me two shoes there last week and we went back on my bday and I tried on all sorts of shoes but I couldn't find one that fit what I was looking for exactly. I found all sorts of others that I wanted but I was on a mission for a certain type of shoe. I bought slippers instead ;) Jared found some he liked though.
- We then met my fmaily at Red Robin and had my free bday burger and ice cream sundae- although by the time the ice cream sundae came I was so sick of food I couldn't even look at it let alone take a bite.
- We then headed to the movies with my little brother and his girlfriend where I got my free movie ticket ( w/entertainment book coupon) we saw Tower Heist. It was good, but not buy worthy.
We did however have more coupons mostly for free food but like I said our stomachs could only handle so much. We paid for it on Sunday the next day by staying home sick all day.
My wonderful wonderful husband who is the best at gift giving! Bought me the most beautiful Jewelry box ever! Picture below with all the features- I can't get a picture of it opened up but it is so wonderful I go to bed at night and fall asleep staring at it because I love it so much!
