December Purchases and Budget by gracenote30 featuring long scarves
This month, most of my purchases have come out of Christmas money or have been gifts. The collage above is a mix of gifts and things I've purchased.
Out of my budget this month, I got the following:
-Black Target blazer for $15 ($10 out of regular budget)
-Periwinkle sweatshirt pictured above $3.40 after gift card
-Red knit dress for $2.50 from Elder Beerman after coupon
Total: $15.90 out of regular budget
I also bought a knit headband to use while running for around $7, but I didn't like it very well. Any suggestions to purchase?
The red bird scarf, the raspberry cardigan, and the bubble necklace pictured above are a few of the Christmas gifts I received.
I have made several purchases the last couple of days because Kohl's was having a stellar sale!! Tons of markdowns, plus extra 25% off clearance and an additional code.
A few highlights:
-Chevron skirt pictured above on clearance for $3.20 (This was on my spring wishlist! I was thrilled to find it!!)
-2 solid 3/4 sleeve t-shirts $5.45 total
-Green cardigan (same as the raspberry one above) $8.52
-Plaid flannel shirt for $4.26
-And my favorite...the brown Simply Vera Wang satchel bag - regular $119 for $8.08 after discounts!
Total spent for the month is around $59.00 so far. :)

As for the headband, have you considered making one? I don't think it is all that hard and there are tons of tutorials for knit headbands made from old Tshirts. Just a thought...
As for winter running headbands, mine is a Columbia brand that I bought at Bergner's (a/k/a Carson's or whatever department store you have in your area). It's fleece and sized for women. I love it because it fits my head perfectly.
