Unbeknownst to me, Claire's had been offering a $10 off coupon for any purchase over $20 for over a month.  I rarely ever spend that much there, but it's worth it for the coupon.

Today was the last day to get it.  It was hard finding a Claire's with enough stuff I wanted, but I ended up going to the one that wouldn't honour the belts in the ten for $10 last time. 

That turned out to be a blessing in disguise, since there's no way I would have had enough this time!  Thankfully, the signs are much clearer now. 

They were also giving away free plush reindeer today for anyone who spent over $20 (seems to be their magic number), but they ran out just as I came.  Oh well.

I almost didn't get the coupon since the cashier said I was $.80 short.  I was so sure I planned it out carefully, but I left it alone since she gave me the coupon anyway.

When I was outside, I realized I was missing one of my items!  One of the gloves above..she forgot to ring it in.

Normally you have to buy in groups of ten to get the discount, so I asked her if I could just buy it separately for that price.  She ended up just giving it to me for free since it was her mistake, so that was a nice gesture.

Funnily enough, the gloves don't even fit!  They're way too tight for me to actually use comfortably.  I didn't think to try them out in the store..they should have used a stretchier fabric.

In happier news, I'm really enamored with that purse.  I'm glad I waited until now to pick it up-I remember passing it up the last time I was here because I thought it was this purse I already have.  What can I say, I was in a rush.   It's similar, except a lot smaller and shaped differently.  Surprisingly good quality for them.

Since I was in the area, I ended up picking up another free olympic plush.  Just one more and I'll have the whole set!

This one was my least favourite.  He looked really cute in the picture, but I was pretty horrified by him in person.
