Boston america - hello kitty candy sours:  free @Superstore (RSP:  $3.99+)

I thought this was super overpriced, but I saw some sellers asking $5.99!  It was just too cute I couldn't resist.

I was going to use my points to get it free, but it scanned in the wrong price so it was free anyway!


They also had these ones there for $4.18.  The same price mine scanned at!  They're cute, but not for that price.

Chocolate heart:  $.34 (RSP:  $1.50)
Sweet tarts heart:  $.34 (RSP:  $1.25)

Both @ Dollarama

Their seasonal candy usually tastes horrible, but the chocolate was just so pretty!  The other one's a brand name, so no worries about the taste there.

Gumballs with heart toy:  $.20 (RSP:  $1.99)
Gumballs with clanging dog toy:  $.20 (RSP:  $1.99)
Ausome - Betty Boop candy lip gloss:  $.12 (!) (RSP:  $1.12)

All @ Target

This is why Target's awesome!  You never see clearance prices this low anywhere else.  Their seasonal stuff always goes down to 90% after a while, and I'm always excited to see what I can find.

Of course, the selection is always tiny by that time.  I'm just glad I managed to find these!  I wouldn't have paid any more for them, but at this price, I couldn't resist.

The heart clip on changes expressions and waves its arms around at the same time.  It's silly but fun.  A lot of them wouldn't align properly, but this one works ok.

Stupidly, they all rung up at full price!  The cashier wanted me to pay full price for the Betty Boop, but thankfully she relented.  I should have taken one with a sticker, but I didn't think they'd hassle me so much!

I just thought the packaging was neat.  I'll probably dump out the candy and use it for something else!  I kind of wish I bought more at that price.

Furreal newborn cat:  $1.99 (RSP:  $24.99)
Teacup Piggies Locket:  $2.99 (RSP:   $10+)
"Hug Me" Valentine's pig candy dispenser:  $.99 (RSP:  $3.50)

All @ Value Village

I'm starting to get really disappointed in this location - I hardly ever find anything good!  Gas is way cheaper in this area though, so I've been coming weekly to fill up.

I was happy about the teacup piggy.  I've always wanted a black one, but I could never find one in stores!  I wish he had his teacup, but for this price, no complaints.  He looks new!

I probably shouldn't have bought the furreal cat.  It's animatronic...meows, blinks, and moves it's legs and tail!  For $2, I couldn't help myself.  It's too bad it doesn't walk, I'm sort of regretting my purchase now.

I don't normally buy crappy seasonal stuff, but since I'm so big on pigs lately, it seemed right.  It oinks when you press it down...and it's realllly loud!  But I thought it was also adorable so I bought it.

Turns out it's from this season!  I saw one at walmart for $1.75 when it was half off.  Those ones were all broken though (the stand was missing from all two I bought!).

I saw a frog, and some other designs, but this was the best.  It was made by regal here, and their candy sucks so I didn't miss out on anything.  I would happily pay $1 just for the container, I don't think I would have found it at any of them for 75% off.

Found a tiny picture of them online:


The cow's pretty cute!  I probably would have bought him too, if I saw him.  Easter themed ones in the same style:


It's that cow again!  Gotta say, it makes more sense for Easter.  I don't like the other ones at all though...their heads seem a bit oddly proportioned.

Halloween candy toys:  3 for $1 @ Dollarama (RSP:  $1-$1.25 each)

Apparently, the candy tastes horrible.  I probably shouldn't have bought these, but I've been eyeing these cycling monsters for a month!

I'm just such a sucker for articulated toys.   When you wind these up, their legs actual cycle!  I wish I just bought one, but I thought I had to buy 3 to get the sale price.

The pins are from a CBC tour I took today and the infusium is a sample from the mail.
