Target Tuesday: What I Don't Really Buy From Target

 Alright so... here's some stuff I don't really buy from target! I'll give you reasons and... yeah! 


1) Brand New Movies- Brand new movies I can usually pass on buying them at Target. I prefer to wait until the movies are on sale- sometimes even if I haven't seen a movie and I see it on sale- I'll pick it up at Target because there's usually a good deal on it. If it's a movie that I really liked and I want right then, if I'm feeling spontaneous and just want to buy something, if it's something I've been waiting for, or if it's something from Disney or Marvel... I will usually get it right away on the spot. Usually after a while you can get something for around $15 or less. On Black Friday they usually have a lot of really great sales so if I see a movie I like right now- I feel like "eh I can wait till Black Friday to get it" because... usually I don't watch the movies right away anyway and if it goes on sale before I watch it I feel really silly. 

That being said- that's a bit of a gamble sometimes because sometimes it can be hard to find again- and sometimes it sells out by the time I get to Target on Black Friday (I also work retail) so... yeah. Plus this year I'm not sure if they'll even have black friday or not... so who really knows! 

Also Disney, Star Wars and Marvel movies usually don't go on that good of a sale- usually you would just save $5 or so... so if you see that and you want it or your kid wants it or something... you probably won't miss out on a great sale for it. 


2) Makeup- So I do buy a lot of makeup from Target... but it isn't my favorite place to buy makeup from. I feel like at my store it's picked over a lot of times, plus the prices are pretty good at Target- but they aren't always the best prices. There's another drugstore right by my Target that usually has better deals on makeup and beauty products and I kind of like buying from that drugstore more because it's smaller than target so I want to keep it open... plus I feel like they've taken better safety measures during the pandemic than Target has... not that I feel unsafe at Target- but I feel a little safer at the other store. Anyway- makeup isn't something I usually go into Target to look at anymore- unless I can only get the brand from Target. 

3) Furniture- So I'm not sure I've actually ever gotten furniture from Target. I thought my parents got my old furniture from Target- but apparently they did not. I just don't really think it's the best quality and it's not usually the best price you're getting for it. Even the Utility Carts they have are actually kind of expensive. I got 2 from Costco that I like better. So... just keep that in mind. 


That's everything I can think of right now-let me know what you guys don't really buy from Target! 

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...

Rereading My Favorite Thing I Wrote In College

Hey guys! I'd say "today's post is a little different" but they're all kind of different to begin with... so this might end up being the same- or at least something that can fit into this blog in a nice way. So I don't want to post the actual thing that I wrote... but in my college Creative Writing Class that I took at 21 we needed to write a fantastical realism short story. And I wrote something that I always liked. The lead character was a smart and sassy woman... the fantastical elements were exciting and unique... and the story as a whole had a cute ending and a good message... and I really liked the way that I took what happened in my real life and changed it into this amazing and fantastical thing. Re-reading it... it was still pretty good. I actually liked the ending a little bit better because it had a nice message about believing in yourself that I kind of just snuck in there without much thought... and there was a cute little love story. I liked ...

Throwback Thursday: The Incredibles

This is one of the more underrated movies in the Pixar Universe... thatI think is actually getting more popular now than it was back when it was released... so that's good. I think it really stands the test of time... but it still isn't one of my favorites. This movie I think is pretty cool because it was the first time Pixar really used humans. When I was little I thought "Toys, Bugs, Monsters, Fish... the next movie will be about dogs!" And I was surprised it was this! I didn't know Pixar could do that! But I guess technically its about heroes and not humans... but then Pixar began to show more humans in their world and The Pixar Theory was started... and yeah. I just kind of want to state my opinion on the Pixar Theory here too cause why not: I don't believe that Pixar set out to create this elaborate world with all the movies connected... but I do still believe it exists in some way shape of form. It all adds up and checks out... so for me... somehow t...
