HEB - summer reading

HEB is a local store here in TX and they are having a reading program (HERE). My girls cannot read themselves yet, but they count parents reading in the reward program as well. well since I read to them every night we had enough books immediately. I sent them both off at the same time, at the beginning of June, and we got Veronica's in 2-3 weeks after and Valerie's 3-4 weeks after. It came with a cute t-shirt, a pencil, 20 sticker points for their HEBuddy point & prize sheet, a bookmark and a reward certificate with their name.

I hate Target


I hate Target right now. I am having issues with their customer service. I hadnt been in 1 1/2 months, I had to temporarily "give in" and get this one deal. I didn't even look at anything else, I made the girls avoid the $1 spot as well! we will see if the redeem themselves, and I start shopping there regularly again.

Eggo bakeshop on sale $1.50ea I bought 8, used 8 $1 Qs = $4.00
