The best day EVER!!
Jan 29th, 2010 by Melinda
Oh wow, yesterday was like the best day ever and exactly what I needed, seriously awesome! But before I get to that, let me back up..
So the nice people over at O.N.E. sent me some awesome coconut waters to try out!
I had one before we hit the gym on Wednesday and seriously I was so energized during my workout!
O.N.E. Coconut Water has five essential electrolytes (calcium, potassium, phosphorous, magnesium and sodium) and more potassium than a banana! There are no added sugars, water or preservatives in O.N.E. Coconut Water. I also love that their packaging is eco-friendly!
I loved all of their drinks- the Coffee Berry was Amazing!! I also loved the Amazon Acai- I honestly felt more energized having one of these before my workout and it was so convenient to take along with me to the gym.
You can go here to find a store near you and find O.N.E. Coconut waters. I definitely recommend trying these if you haven’t yet!
Okay so moving on to the best day ever! Thursday was awesome!
I started the morning with some organic granola & coconut milk- later I added some raisins which made it perfect.
After breakfast, my Mom in law picked me up to go shopping!
We headed to Big Lots because I had a 20% off coupon since I am a Buzz Club Member.
They had these organic cereals for $1.15 plus the additional 20% off so they were 93 cents per box- ridiculous right? That’s why I bought all 6 boxes that were left!
A very necessary eye mask
I also found organic V8 juice which I love! They were only $1.60 after the discount.
I love Big Lots because they carry alot of things that I usually have to buy at Whole Foods, but much cheaper and closer
So get this, the hubby calls me while I am with my Mom in law and we are finishing up shopping and he tells me that if I hurry home, I can ride with him to where my sister lives because he had some out of town work to do. I was so excited and immediately called her and we decided to meet up and go shopping after she got off of work so she could take advantage of the Big Lots discount as well. Plus she’s my fave sister ever!
Love you girl! (she totally reads my blog) So anyway, here is the second Big Lots loot of the day!
I got these for my sister’s baby shower- instead of having to cook so much, I am trying to pretty much buy everything pre-made so I won’t get so overwhelmed
I also found frontera chips which I love and some enchilada sauce for the hubby’s enchiladas.
Earthgrains Natural Thinbuns- love these for veggie burgers, sandwiches.
I also got the hubby some blueberry and cinnamon raisin bagels- he loves these with cream cheese & some organic jam
And some strawberry fig newtons-3 packs- my sister wanted them for the baby shower.
They also had this great artisan chocolate that I got for me and my sister to share- we enjoyed it on the way back home
Okay, so are you ready for this? My sisters Big Lots loot….
She found alot of great stuff!! She does have an almost teenage boy, so he eats lots of snacks! She got all of this for $71 after the discount- how awesome is that?!
My sister also took me to the Thrift shop- I was so excited, thrift shops are my fave! I love finding unique items that no one else has, plus you can’t beat the price
I found the cutest old navy sweater- love!
And the cutest AE shirt
Abercrombie tee.
And I’m kind of obsessed with unique belts- I loved this one with the rabbit! So cute with a white shirt and maybe some jeans?
Best find of the day- Express Jeans- I’m In. Love. YES
Today (Friday) was really busy and honestly, I have only had a few cups of coffee this month and today was one of those days. The caffeine helped me to get alot done!
