My first LOL doll

Posted on by crazydreamsgirl

Hello, my bucket list, friends! As you can tell by the title of this post, I’ve just added a new doll to my collection. However, this doll is not one that I would normally buy. I’ve seen LOL dolls before, but I didn’t really have any interest in them. However, this one series that we have at work called LOL tweens looked interesting. The box had a picture of what the doll inside looked like, but you could not see the actual doll or any of the accessories. The surprise part of it is what interested me the most. When I saw that all of the LOL dolls were on sale, I decided to buy one of the two tween dolls that we had. LOL dolls are known for having big heads and huge eyes, and the doll I got definitely follows that rule. My favorite thing about this doll is her hair. It seems to be a very good quality. I also love her earrings and glasses. The doll comes with a background that is great for taking pictures of your doll. I don’t think I will become a collector of LOL dolls but I’m happy that I decided to get one. Do you have any LOL dolls?

The little things I enjoyed on Sunday and Monday

Posted on by crazydreamsgirl

Hello, my bucket list friends. One of my favorite sayings is enjoy the little things. I wanted to highlight the little things I loved on Sunday and Monday. Without any more delay, let’s get to it!

Sunday – I started work later in the day. I sept in and took it easy until it was time to leave for work. Before work, I went to Safeway, where I got food and a hot wheels car. Then I went to get coffee. After that, I went to work early so I could buy something before I had to clock in. I bought this super cute Melissa and Doug sticker activity kit. Also, during my day at work, I got two chocolates that have toys inside and a container of squishy toys that are part of our Valentines Day seasonal items.

Monday – I had this day off! I slept in again, and I took it easy until my mom and I went into town. Our first stop was coffee, of course, then Pet Co, where I saw some very cute kittens. After Pet Co, I went to my favorite local party supplies store. I have been coming here since I was a kid. Being there made me feel young again. I got four pencils for a dollar because that’s something I would have gotten as a kid. I also got some some plastic sea animals, rubber ducks, a Pez disperser that is shaped like a truck, and a pen with a plastic heart on top. After that we went for a walk in the park. There is supposed to be rain coming this way soon, so it was nice to get outside for a walk. After our walk, I went to the movie theater to pick up a prize pack that I had won. Before walking back to the car, I went to the candy store, and I got some of the stickers that they had there.

There you have it some of the little things that I have enjoyed lately!

Lots of clearance shopping and buying new seasonal items

Posted on by crazydreamsgirl

Hello, my bucket list, friends! As some of you know, I work at Walgreens. One of my favorite sections of the store is the seasonal isle. Right now, there are some big changes going on in the seasonal isle. The Christmas items are on clearance, and the Valentines Day items are being put on the shelves. We are also putting out more outdoor toys. I have done my fair share of clearance shopping. I’m surprised at how many times are left. I’ve gotten some great clearance items, including a gel timer and surprise toys that also come with candy, a leopard print tumbler, a bucket of fake snow that has toys inside, nail stickers, GooToobz toys, a Squishmallow hooded blanket, and a drawing game. I’ve also been getting some of the new seasonal items. I got some Valentine’s Day Pez dispensers, a bucket of outdoor toys, and a squishy toy shaped like an ice cream cone. I’m excited to see what seasonal items will be on the shelves next! Have you bought any clearance items this year?

A new squishmallow and another trip to the mall!

Posted on by crazydreamsgirl

Hello, my bucket list, friends! It’s January, but stores are getting for Valentine’s Day. That includes the store where I work. I was very happy when I saw that we had some Valentine’s Day Squishmallows out. I chose a cat squishmallow that is holding a heart. She is super cute, and I was very excited to bring her home with me. Yesterday, I went to the mall for the 2nd time this year. The main reason I went was to get a massage, but I also stopped by Claire’s. I got some cute hair bows and other hair accessories. I also got two bracelets. I feel good overall about how this year has started.

Toy review Barbie cutie reveal purse blogmas day 12

Posted on by crazydreamsgirl

Hello, my bucket list, friends! On Saturday, I got this super cute Barbie color reveal purse at Target. It doesn’t come with a doll but with a pet. I had never seen these before, and I didn’t find it in the toy section but in the Christmas section. It was with a bunch of other small items that I think were meant to be put in a stocking. This toy was different from the cutie reveal toys that I’m used to since it did not come with a doll, and the main part of it was a purse that you put together. With all that being said, I really like this toy. I loved how it came with charms to attach to the purse. Of course, the bear that came with it was super cute. I recommend getting this toy if you see it.

Barbie sticker book ,advent calendar, and pets! blogmas day 7

Posted on by crazydreamsgirl

Hello, my bucket list, friends! I love collecting many different things, but Barbie is one of my favorite things to collect! Wednesday, I got two Barbie items at work, and on Thursday, I opened them along with the Barbie advent calendar that I got on Saturday. The first thing that I opened was the collectible Barbie sticker book. This sticker book came with five packages of stickers. I was very excited when I saw this sticker book on Wednesday because I had not seen it before. I had fun putting the stickers in the book, but I did get more doubles than I thought I would get. I hope to get more stickers for this book soon. I was excited to open the Barbie Advent calendar, and it did not disappoint! I love that the doll has three different colors in her hair. I also love the clothes and little animals that came in this set. I highly recommend this advent calendar for any Barbie fan. The last item I opened was the Barbie pet set. This is a very cute set and I’m glad that I bought it. It came some some vert cute pets and other items. This would also be a great gift for any Barbie fan.

Snackles toy review

Posted on by crazydreamsgirl

Hello, my bucket list, friends! It is time for another product review. I had never heard of Snackles before until I saw them at my work. I thought it was interesting that each plush animal comes with a different brand of snack. I love the two plushies that I got. One is an elephant, and the other one is an axolotl. I love how they are both holding their snacks! They also come with a little book. I really like Snackles, and I want to get another one soon! If you’re looking for something fun to collect, Snackles should be something you consider! Oh, and the plushies are super soft!

My review of Barbie Pop reveal!

Posted on by crazydreamsgirl

Hello, my bucket list, friends! It is time for another product review! Not too long ago, I bought a Barbie pop reveal doll. However, I didn’t open her until today. This doll is different from the color reveal dolls in a few ways. The first way is that you know which doll you are going to get. I like that because it makes collecting the whole set much easier, and more importantly, you won’t get any doubles unless you want them. Also, the container that the doll comes in is not a plastic tube it is a big plastic cup decorated with fruit and the Barbie logo. The doll is unique in the way her knees and ankles bend. However, she can’t be put into a sitting position in the way that many other dolls can. This doll comes with a few fun accessories, including a little pet. Slime is also included, but I did not open it. Overall, I’m really happy with this new series of reveal dolls, and I hope that there will be more like it.

A Trip to Target on my day off

Posted on by crazydreamsgirl

Hello, my bucket list, friends! On Wednesday I had the day off I decided that my big event of the day would be going to Target. When I got to Target, my first goal was to get a Barbie pop reveal doll. When I looked online, I saw that there were not many in stock. When I got to the Barbie isle, I was happy to see that they had the one that I wanted. I also was happy that there were Barbie pets that had two pets in each package. I got two packages. I looked around the toy section to see if there was anything else that I wanted. I got a container of kinetic sand that comes with an animal toy. I went to the dollar section, but I didn’t see anything that I wanted. In the area where they have the trading cards, I got a ball that has three surprise squishy toys inside. In the art isle, I got a pack of scented Crayola colored pencils. I also got food as well, and that was my trip to Target!

My latest adventures thrift shopping, break time shopping, and more!

Posted on by crazydreamsgirl

Hello, my bucket list, friends! I’m excited to write this post because last week I got to go to my favorite local thrift store. It had been a while since I had last gone. I used to work close to it so I got to go there a lot. I can’t wait to tell you about the things that I got there so let’s get to it.

October 5 – On this day, I left early for work so that I would have time to go to the thrift store before my shift started. My fist exciting find of my thrift shopping trip was a Barbie book. I was very happy with that find and I continued my shopping. I bought some really fun things at the thrift store, including American girl items, beads, a Pez dispenser, more books, and a bath bomb that has a prize inside. There were American girl dolls, but they were more than I wanted to spend. However, I’m glad I went to the thrift store on this day.

October 6th – On this day, I was off of work. I went to Safeway, and I got some food, of course, but I also got Hot Wheels cars. Safeway is a good place to get Hot Wheels cars. I got four cars. I also got my favorite fruit snacks that come with trading cards and juice that comes with a toy.

October 7th – I worked on this day, but before work, I went to Starbucks and the park. During my break at work, I bought a stamp set and a glitter tattoo kit that was on sale.

October 8th – On this day, I had work later in the day. I started the morning by getting coffee, and then I went to church. It was so good to be back in church since It had been about two weeks since I was last there. I was tired after church, so I went home and took a nap before going to work. At work, I got a kinder Joy egg.
