I'm Chris and I am addicted to yard sales, garage sales, thrift stores and bargain hunting in general. Visit my site yardsalequeen.com - which I started in 1996. "Smile" and "VV" (Vintage Value) are the names of two thrift stores I regularly shop at. I grew up in Clifton Park NY but now live in Lusby, MD. I also lived in other exciting locales such as Schenectady, Watervliet (NY), and Charleston, SC.

Shopping Bargains for the week - CVS and Staples
I got some great bargains at CVS this week. The top picture is the inside of my car, where it looked like a CVS store exploded. CVS had their Christmas stuff marked down to 90% off, so I went to 3 different CVS stores and spent $15.26 total.
I went to Staples twice this week and got a bunch of stuff, and using the $3 inkjet coupons that I have, didn't spend a dime. The cashiers sometimes look confused when you walk out with a bag of stuff and you didn't hand them any money. I definitely have a Sharpies stockpile now - they were on sale for $1 a package. I only took one picture of my buys, but I ended up with 10 packages of Sharpies.
I am going to Staples with you...I can never find deals there!!! I have a $10.50 credit there for the business card disaster.... :)
