Christmas Fund Update

So its been another month or so since I have update what I have to add to my fund. Its been a good month. It first started with us selling our bassinet. Let's face it, I give birth to huge babies and have no need for a bassinet. So we got $30 for it and I added that to our fund. Then I got a $10 Red Robin gift card by cashing in my Pampers diapers points. I also had a $5 gift card for buying something at Target. Then as a HUGE surprise Joel and I both received $25 Target gift cards for completing our health survey thing for our discount on our heath insurance through Target. So that's another $50 to our fund! And then the spare change just kept building up. It came to $8.13.  And you are thinking that I buy everything at Target for Christmas. Well I tend to but I would rather use my Target debit to receive an extra 5% discount along with my employee discount. So what I did was take all those gift cards and traded cash for them and used the gift cards to buy diapers  (which got me another gift card but for another post).




So let's add this all up.

 spare change: $8.13
Gift cards: $65.00
Bassinet: $30.00

Total: $103.13 added to my fund.

Total fund to date: $212.56 (35% of my goal) My goal is $600!!!!
