After Valentine's Day haul

I was trying my hardest not to go after Valentine's Day shopping, but things and stuff. I didn't realize how bad these pictures were until I uploaded them, but I'm not re taking them. I worked an earlier shift than I planned today, so I went to Hobby Lobby:
 I picked up a few more clearance items, a couple St Patrick's Day things one Valentine's Day item and a stuffed hedgehog.
glitter stickers, pocket calendar, shaker tags, sweet treat stickers, rose trim, clover gems, felt clover stickers, stuffed hedgehogs, a couple jewelry pieces, Flea Market fancy ephemera, popsicle stickers.
the pocket calendar was 80 cents, I bought it just so I could cut up the images, it's a Mary Engelbreit calendar. I love these little shaker tags I got last time, so I picked up more. I originally went to look at the Valentine's Day items, and I wanted to by these stickers originally. I love this trim, the 3 pack was in the paper crafting section and the black single one was in the sewing section. I also needed to pick up St Patrick's Day stuff for a swap, I was bummed to see it was only 30% off, but picked up the gems and stickers anyway. I love these two jewelry pieces. I picked up the other bag of flea market fancy bits last time. I also wanted these stickers last time.
JoAnns is in the same strip mall, so I went there, too.
 stickers, paper clips, pen, stamps and a bag. I wanted the cactus pen and the shaker stickers last time I went, but I wasn't going to pay $3 for them. I also wanted the heart and owl stickers, but again, wasn't going to spend $3. I picked up the stamp set because it's got an envelope.
Since I was out, I thought I'd wander down to Walmart and Target, since they're very close together.
 Stuffed animals, candy, book, tape, coloring cards, cupcake pics.
I wanted the chocolate strawberry and the egg before Valentine's day, but again, couldn't spend the $3 on them. I picked up the donut as well. The emoji was in the clearance section. I can't believe the bags of gummies were originally $3 each, the white one is supposed to be champagne flavored. The board book is about Iowa, I saw it at the bookstore in January and was excited to see it at Walmart later on, and more excited to see it today. Every time I go to Walmart, I have to pick up tape to make sure I never run out. I found the cards in the clearance aisle. I've wanted to try these petites from Hostess for awhile, but I'm not interested in spending $4 for them.  I'm not exactly sure why I picked up the cupcake pics.
Here's Target:
food, stickers, water bottle.
I may have picked up a bit too much chocolate, but that was most of the reason I went. Target only had the cheaper candy left, so I went over to the regular candy aisle, bad choice. The cashews were slightly on sale as were the Brookside the blueberry Ghiradelli, and the candy bar at the top. And then I walked down the wrong food aisle on the way out. By this time it was after 5, maybe even after 6 and I was hungry, so I picked up the potato skins and the pizza buns. I also picked up the oreo milkas cause they were on sale. I picked up the Mello Yellow because apparently no one sells those anymore either. I only picked up the Ghiradlli chocolate and the stickers. I picked up the water bottle because I broke mine last week and I needed a new one.
I again spent way too much money, but am gonna try again to not buy anything for the rest of the month.
