Heart of gold notebook: $.75 @ Michaels (RSP: $1.50)
I had a half off coupon, so I couldn't resist. The heart is pretty scratched up and blotchy though...I thought that was just the plastic covering, but sadly, it wasn't!
They actually have a lot of nice looking stuff in their dollar spot section. The designs seem nicer than other ones in that price point. I'll have to make it a point to drop in more often!

"Paint the town pink" trinket box: $9.60 @ Michaels (RSP: $23.99)
Their regular price is such a ripoff! This was 60% off, which is only 10% more than the half off deal you can get anytime.
I thought it might get to 70% soon, but I liked it so much I had to get it. I haven't seen this anywhere else, and I thought the price was alright.
If I find more I might pick them up. They had a lot of neat stuff in their "gifts for her" section, including this floating glitter frame! I hope that'll still be around when the price goes lower. They also had some really nice glass trays I might want to get.
Also got a pretty gift from my friend:
Love that pink zebra box!

Zebra wrapping paper: $.75/$1.50
TMNT colouring book: $1
All @ Michael's
I actually need 4 rolls of that paper, so I'm really hoping I can find it at another one. These ones were the only rolls that weren't Christmas themed, so I don't know how easy it'll be to find them.
The colouring book was an impulse buy. That was regular price! It was $1 US and $1 Canadian, which was a nice change. Usually the Canadian price is much higher.

Krylon ballet slipper spraypaint: $5 (RSP: $9.99)
Cat mug: $2.10 (RSP: $7)
Both @ Michaels
They had a one day only half off coupon, so I decided to go. I need way more cans of this paint, and this is the only place they sell it!
The cat mug was an afterthought. I really liked it, but it did have some scuffs on it.
Since it was way bigger than my other mugs, and it was the only one there, I decided to get it. They also had a black/white reversed cup of the same design, but I thought this looked nicer.

Curtain rod: $1.50 @ Dollarama
Wrapping paper: $.50 each @ Michael's (RSP: $1.50+)
The wrapping paper was an impulse buy. I saw them in the $.50 bin, and that just seemed too good of a deal to pass up!
They scanned in at $1.50 each, which is already pretty reasonable...so I wonder if that was already the sale price.
Thankfully the cashier gave it to me for the lower price. Now I wish I bought way more, because I had a great idea to use them as wallpaper! I don't think I have enough as is.

Krylon Colormaster spray in ballet slipper: $5.99 @ Michael's
I still have an old can of Krylon, but I didn't think it would be enough for my dresser. They don't have the exact same one I bought last time, but the lids look exactly the same.
This actually only retails for $4.97 at Wal mart, and it's $5.79 at Canadian Tire. The regular price at Michael's is $9.99! But my Wal mart didn't have it, and the colour's not on Canadian Tire's website.
I found out that it's only $3 in the States! It sucks that it's twice the price here, but what can you do.
I was looking for a cute scrub brush because I'm going to need to do some major cleaning soon (including the rug, I didn't realize it as so gross!). Anything that makes it more enjoyable is worth it!

Gorilla super glue: $5.09 @ Michael's (RSP: $8.49)
Jacques Vert - Brown leather purse with beige stripe accent: $3.99 @ Salvation Army (RSP: $60+)
I haven't been to Michael's in so long! I needed a stronger glue for my studding projects, so I decided to get this one.
They claim they're the strongest on earth! I had a coupon, so I decided to buy it there...plus, I don't know where else this brand is sold.
Also went to Salvation Army, since I was in the area.
I really liked the purse, but I thought it was kind of pricey for $4, since it is kind of plain, and it has some minor wear on the outside.
It's from one of the brands I always look out for though, so I just had to get it. They always use such nice leather, and their designs are always classic and timeless.

Snoopy plaster magnets: $.84 @ Michaels (RSP: $8.49)
Valentine's mug: $.19 @ Michaels (RSP: $1.99)
I ended up going to a Winners I've never been to before-it was so hard to get to! Worse, it was during a snowstorm...I ended up having to walk/wait for the bus in the freezing cold for more than half an hour. After that, I was done going to other Winners (that weren't indoors!)
When I was walking past, I noticed that Michaels had their valentine's stuff for 90% off. It was all outside too, otherwise I probably wouldn't have gone inside to look.
I thought they were cute and cheap. I suppose part of the reason I bought them was because that winner's was so disappointing-didn't find anything at all there!
