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!

Scribbles about TV: Jane The Virgin Review!

This I think is a surprise hit, so of corse I needed to watch it for myself to see! It's been getting a lot of critical buzz because it has been reviewed as "one of the best pilots of the season" and I also have been hearing a few critics saying that they don't think it will last because the word "virgin" is in the title... which is stupid. There is nothing wrong with being a virgin and if a show is good, its good and people should watch it... plus this did bring pretty high ratings for The CW so the critics that said that can suck it! Lol. Overall I really liked this show. One thing thats been bothering me a lot about the new Fall shows is that the characters aren't interesting enough. Especially the female characters. I thought that this showed a lot of really strong female characters that were interesting. This had a pretty big cast with A LOT of stuff going on for a pilot and most of the characters were female. That is a powerful thing to see on TV...

Top 10 Dating Tips/ Suggestions

So I've been in a relationship for about 2 and a half years... but before that I was single... for a very long time. And I was on dating apps for about a year or so before that... so here's what I learned from those apps. If you want more specific relationship advice I have from being in a relationship... that one might be a little harder but I guess I could do a blog on that too? Idk... I'm not an expert but I think I have some good tips.  Find an App That Works For You  I feel like not all apps work for everyone. I started on Bumble- and I like the app. I love the idea of girls taking the first move- but... I HATE making the first move apparently. So I would just match with a bunch of guys... and never really knew what to talk about. Plus I like having A LOT of info in my bio and Bumble just doesn't give enough space for me. I only went out with 1 guy from Bumble I think and it was bad.  So after that I tried Coffee Meets Bagel... which is terrible. Maybe depending on...

Some Pretty Funny Mini Stories That Happened Recently

Okay... so I feel like I have a few stories to tell... a lot of random funny things have happened this past week or so and I just feel like telling them... so yeah. Hope these are interesting. The Penny Pincher  This actually happened a while ago. And some backstory: My mom and I babysit my niece on weekdays and my niece is a toddler- who is pretty easygoing- and I don't really mind watching her on my own...but somedays it gets a little long and it's nice to have 2 people there. Anyway she had to go to the grocery store to get a tomato sauce... and we like a particular kind of tomato sauce... some woman actually took that tomato sauce out of her cart and put the generic version in her cart because "this woman knows tomato sauce and this stuff is the same." It really wasn't the same at all... the type I think had diced tomatoes and that isn't what we needed for the recipe or something like that. The tomatoes were different and it wouldn't have worked wi...
