My Bargain Shopper

Tressa received some money from her Mimi for Valentine's Day. She wanted to use that money to buy her some dinosaur books. I guess that is her new rage, DINOSAURS. On Valentine's Day, we went as a family to Barnes & Nobles in search for her dinosaurs.

We were able to find "Danny and the Dinosaur", "Danny and the Dinosaur Go to Camp" and "Detective Dinosaur". It was buy 2, get 1 free. When we got up to the register, Tressa handed the cashier her books and told her that they were about dinosaurs. Then not only did she get one book for free, Tressa also received 10% off her total purchase. She is quite the bargain shopper. She bought her 3 books for a total of $7.75. She gave the cashier her 2 $5 bills and took her bag, receipt and change. Tressa told the cashier "Thank you, have a nice day!", then she proceeded out the door to the car.

The minute we got home she wanted to sit down and read her latest books on Dinosaurs. What a fun day!! My daughter finds great bargains. Maybe I should have her do the shopping in our family more often.
