Three trips to my favorite local thrift store

Posted on by crazydreamsgirl

Hello, my bucket list, friends! This month, I’ve visited my favorite local thrift store three times, and I’m excited to let you know all about it, so let’s get to it!

January 4th

I always enjoy finding fun things at my favorite local thrift store. I like this thrift store for many reasons but one reason is that it has great prices. On this day my favorite thrift store find was an American Girl book. This book was one that came with one of the American girl pets. I was very happy when I saw it on the shelf. I also got some foam stickers, foam stamps, a hair scrunchie that has a smiley face pattern, and more! It was a good thrift shopping trip.

On a lot of my thrift shopping trips there is one item that stands out from the rest of my haul The standout item from this thrift shopping trip was a pair of pink converse. I have wanted a pair for awhile and when I saw this pair I knew it was meant to be. I also got some super cute stickers, some crayons, a book, a cute pouch that is perfect for art supplies, and a large container that was full of beads. I have already worn my new shoes that I got on this day and I love them so much!

January 26th

I did not have plans to go thrift shopping on this day but my friend was in town so I ended up meeting her here. I was in a weird mood on this day so I kind of just let myself loose and I just kind bought whatever I wanted to. I got a pretty good haul. If I had to choose a stand out item for this thrift shopping trip I would say that it is a pair of yellow heart shaped sun glasses. I liked that they were yellow I have a good amount of heart shaped sunglasses but I really liked that these were a bright and sunny yellow color. I was also really excited that I got a bunch of stickers including some horse stickers. Some other fun items I got on this day were two plush Peeps bunnies, a notebook with flowers on the cover, glitter glue, erasers shaped like crayons, a package of Crayola colored pencils, three shirts, some socks, and a bag of pens. I also got a Cheeta Girls CD because it reminded me of when I was a teenager. It was a fun thrift shopping trip with my friend.

Thank you for reading about my local thrift shopping adventures this month.

Barbie color reveal Disco Star series review

Posted on by crazydreamsgirl

Hello, my bucket list, friends! I love Barbie color reveal dolls, and I was very excited to see that there was a new series available in stores, so I went to Target and got one of these dolls. Without any more delay, here is my review.

Barbie color reveal Disco Star series

One thing that I thought was cool when I saw this series was that all the dolls come with cowboy hats. They also have multicolored hair. The doll that I got has pink and blue hair. I also loved the necklace that this doll came with. This color reveal doll was similar to other color reveal dolls, but I love the theam of this series, and I would recommend adding this to your collection!

Thanks for reading!

Ending 2024 with a new Squishmallow and starting 2025 with a Target run!

Posted on by crazydreamsgirl

Hello, my bucket list, friends, and happy 2025! It seems crazy that we are living in the year 2025! I’m looking forward to the blessing that this year will bring. In this post, I want to tell you about how I ended my 2024 and welcomed 2025! Let’s get to it!

December 31st, 2024

I had work on this day. When I walked into work, I was happy to see that some of the Valentine’s Day items were already on display, including some very cute Squishmallows. I got this very cute dog with long fuzzy ears! I also got a package of push pencils ,a surprise toy a stamp set and a Squishmallow clip. That night, I went to a neighbor’s house to welcome the New Year. It was very exciting to finally say hello to 2025! I have high hopes for this New Year, and I’m already surrounded by blessings!

January 1st, 2025

On the first day of 2025, I went shopping at Target. I saw some cute Valentine’s Day ducks on Instagram that were in the Target Dollar shop. I was so happy when I went to Target and I got them! There were also a bunch of other very cute items in the Target Dollar shop. I got a duck shaped soap dispenser, a frog mirror, shoe charms, gel clings , straw covers , a plush frog, and heart-shaped glasses. I also got stickers, a bath bomb and a Barbie doll that I had been wanting. It was a great way to start the new year, but that was not all I did that day. I got coffee at Starbucks, and at work that day, I got a Valentine’s Day bead kit.

Thanks for reading about my last day of 2024 and my first day of 2025!
