10 Things to buy Under $10

So I was kind of out of blog ideas... and I didn't get to watch The Bachelor yet for a Bachelor recap... that'll probably be tomorrow's blog. But for today I thought I'd do a fun "what to buy for under $10" post. Maybe this will help for Valentine's Day or just for a fun little gift. I'm not going to keep it to 1 store- I'll mention a little bit of everything. I'll try to include pictures if it is something that I bought myself...idk if I'll include links to anything because I don't want anyone getting upset if they can't find anything. But I'll try to get pictures!

1) Disney/ Pixar Up Adventure Coin Purse (Boxlunch) $9.90- Boxlunch had some really cute coin purses from Disney... and I was in need of one! So I got this Up one- it had a really cute pom pom that looked just like the balloon on it. I love Up- it's a movie that always makes me cry... and it just makes me happy to use this.


2) Dos Card Game (Target) $5.99- So I loved Uno as a kid and I was surprised and intrigued to see that they had Dos. Curiosity finally got the better of me yesterday when I was getting some un-fun things...and I thought "You know I'm going to buy Dos. See what this is all about." So... that's what I did.

3) The Big Sick on DVD (Target) $10- I got this a while ago at Target and I loved the movie itself. I've only ever seen it at Target and on DVD and it's always been $10! So... that's a pretty great way to spend $10. It's a cute movie and it has Ray Romano in it... so you should get it. I did see the Blu Ray available online also... but I don't think you really need this one on Blu Ray as great as the movie is.

4) Metallic Paint Markers from Hand Made Modern (Target) $6.99- This is basically just turning into a "What Shannon Buys at Target" post lol. I got these because I was like that much away from free shipping a while ago... so I got these pens and I use them for my bullet journal and I can kind of do some Caligraphy with them and I'll probably use them for making cards. These write really well and the glitter is nice and subtle. I think I might pick up some different ones... which are also under $10!

(okay... not the best picture.. but I took it last night when I was feeling sick.)

5) 1.9lb Bag of Sour Patch Watermelon (Five Below) $5- This might be the best $5 I've ever spent. I love Watermelon Sour Patch Kids... it's hard to find them and honestly even the boxes can be really really expensive. And they don't come with a lot and I always want more. So... great value! Great for sharing... just a fun snack!

6) Salt Lamp (Five Below) $5- Five Below had some great stuff when I went yesterday! This Salt Lamp was no exception. I've been looking for one of these for a while, and I really liked the size of this one... and I love how nice and bright it is. It is really, really cool!

7) Funko Pop (Target, Boxlunch, Gamestop, Wallmart, Wallgreens,Hot Topic &lots more) Around $9- You can get these almost anywhere... if you don't know what they are- they're little figures from different pop culture things. My favorite is the Fun Bun from Wreck it Ralph. It's so cute and I just really like collecting these.


8) Disney Tiny Big Feet (Disney Store or ShopDisney) $5.95 - These are so cute! I have a few of these because they're just really fun and I like the look of these more than the Tsum Tsums. I have Stitch, Sully and Winnie The Pooh... plus all of the Christmas ones... I really love these and I'm happy they're coming out with more.

9)Hasbro World's Smallest Lite Brite (American Eagle... probably other places) 9.95- This is something that I found while trying to come up with 2 more things to be honest. I think this looks fun- its something that would make someone feel nostalgic... plus you could put a heart or an I love you on it if you're giving it for Valentine's Day.

10) Itty Bitty's (Hallmark) Around $7- These are other cute little plush things like the Tsum Tsum's that I also like to collect. I have a Han Solo and Chewbaca keychain, Beetlejuice and a Thanos. These are fun and adorable. I really like these!
I forgot I have Mulder and Scully Itty Bitty's too! These are the best! 

Bye!

Weekly Wrap Up 7.30.17

Sunday 7.23.17  Sunday was a really good day… it was kind of a lazy day for me… but my dad pretty much finished most of the painting in my room… he ran out of paint before he could totally finish it up… so he’ll finish that up soon… my mom is going to the paint store tomorrow… so hopefully he can finish it up then.  He also made some really fantastic barbecue pork… it was going to be pulled pork… but the pulling process didn’t really work… I kind of prefer the texture of it sliced instead of pulled…. idk. I like pulled pork… but this sliced pork was really delicious and flavorful and good.  We went for Starbucks and Ice Cream too… which was fun. Starbucks sends a lot of bonus stars offers after 2… so even though we go in the morning- we have to go after 2 because then we’ll get bonus stars, which my dad uses in New York because it’s a little more expensive there.  And then the ice cream… nutella ice cream with crushed oreos and marshmallow…it was del...

Scribbles About Food: Gloria Jeans Pistachio Chiller (kinda like a frap)

So since I'm doing all of the Frappuccino reviews, I thought I would give a shout out to a different coffee chain that I like... maybe even more than Starbucks! But I hardly ever go to it because A) People get your orders wrong there a lot B) I don't really live near one! So Gloria Jeans has some amazing drinks called Chillers that are like Frappuccinos, but they have always had a ton of really good and really interesting flavors. One of my favorite Seasonal ones is the Pistachio Chiller. They had this around this time last year also and its a really good unique flavor. Basically it tastes like pistachio ice cream... but in a frozen coffee form. Its pretty cool! And Pistachio is a pretty underrated flavor in my opinion. I don't get it enough, but I always love Pistachio and Almond flavored desserts and this in particular is really flavorful and just a really good chiller. I don't think there is anything at starbucks that compares to it really, its really different...

Throwback Thursday: Crazy Ex Girlfriend Season 1

One of my favorite shows is the very underrated Crazy Ex Girlfriend... and when I say underrated I mean the ratings are bad... I'm pretty sure there is a lot of critical hype that is very real and worthy of that sort of hype... I honestly didn't watch it live at all this year until the finale... it was all in my DVR... I had lost a little bit of interest to be honest after the first episode... but I bingewatched it all in one day pretty much and it was great... but that's season 2... let's go back to Season 1. If you're only familiar with Season 2... Season 1 isn't quite as dark. It's definitely more silly than Season 2. It isn't like the darkness and the drama isn't there, it just isn't quite as dark. I have a feeling the show is getting progressively darker, and the Season 2 finale was definitely the darkest so far. The show is meant to be a different spin on a Rom-Com. The girl moves across the country for a guy that has a girlfriend alrea...
