"Bed" Time

We have been searching high and low for a bed for my son. Out of all the bedrooms in our house he chose the smaller one with a slanted ceiling. So I've been brainstorming on space as he grows. I decided to go with the student style loft bunk beds. So today we tried 2 more furniture stores. I finally decided on one at the second location.

This is the store model. I was really in love with the stairs instead of a ladder. The stairs also doubles as drawer space.

This is the actual one he got. With the desk on the inside. We've decide not to put together the bottom bunk for now and just use the space as his work space.

The color is called Cherry Merlot and if I'm not mistaken the name is Ivy League. A very nice rich dark wood. So now I have Sat. & Sun to paint, if I decide to paint over his burgundy-ish walls. And I have until Tues. to find him some bedding and a desk chair. I see a trip to Ikea in my near future. I really want to turn his room inside out and start fresh with a bare room.

And thanks to our friend Mr Black Friday, we got a steal of a deal.

In other news, my brave husband left home at 11:30 last night and stood in line at Toys R Us for their midnight opening. He pretty much got everything for our son. Then he went and stood in best buy line at 4:30AM for their 5am opening. I told him he was NUTS! And somehow after that he made it to Radioshack before finally making his way home and passing out before his head hit the pillow.

We usually do small toys and one big ticket item depending on his academics and behavior throughout the school year. So his big ticket item that he has been asking for since he was 7 years old is an ipod, I feel he's old enough and more responsible now than he would've been at 7. . Thats pretty much all that's left on his list, of course I'll throw in a few stocking stuffers maybe ipod speakers and some better earphones because the apple ones are horrible(another post in itself). I will be done Christmas shopping by the end of this week. Next year my goal is to be done before Thanksgiving.

Now I'm sitting here debating a second Old Navy order because all of they're pants are on sale $15 for adults and $10 for children! Oh the sales..Never thought I'd get this excited over them.

I LOVE SALES!!!!

Last night I caught wind of Old Navy and Gap being among the few stores opening Thanksgiving Day. So I went over to the website to get an idea of what we could possibly need. Low and behold they were having an ONLINE SALE! 3 day deal busters. I was so excited. Then I got my husband excited and hey, anytime I get that money gripping husband of mine excited to spend money, I jump on it. So today while waiting for dinner we placed our order!

All outerwear was 50% off, so my husband and son both got pea coats for $25!

All sweater were 15% off

so they were around $10. The boys got a few sweaters.

All long sleeve tees were $8 for adults and $5 for kids. We all got some of the long sleeve tees and I also got some Old Navy signature t-shirts for $5 each.

The boys also got beenie hats for $2.50.

So for our little family of 3, we got around 20 to 25 items for $168.

Shipping was free for purchases of $50 or more.

Then there was a code for $10 off of purchases over $50.

Now I'm waiting on they're pants to go on sa

le so the boys can get some jeans and cords.

My husband is braving the crowds tonight and hitting up toys r us at midnight. I'm going to stay home and talk him through it on blackberry messaging. LMAO And while I'm typing this up, I'm suppose to be seeing what time the apple store opens so he can go by there and get my son's ipod nano. On top of their sale, we also get a 8% employee discount. My goal is to be done shopping for my son between tomorrow and Saturday.

Funny we drove by Best Buy and from the freeway and 11am we could see people had already set up their tents for tonight. It ain't that serious to me!!!! My friend and I are going to hit up a few online sales tonight while IM'ing each other.

I got a few of these in different colors, originally $14.50 but on sale for $5.

This is the peacoat the boys got, originally $49.50, on sale for $24.75.

I got this in I think 3 colors, originally $16.50, on sale for $8

The boys got a few of these a piece, originally $9.50 for boys and I think $12.50 for men. On sale for $8 adults and $5 kids.

I can't wait to see my little one in this cute little sweater. Originally $24.50, on sale for $15.

We got some other stuff, but I'm too lazy to copy and paste the rest. Now I'm sitting here relaxing watching Beyonce's special on tv. I think the boys have eaten themselves into food comas. LMAO
