My Target haul at 90% off! (FINALLY!!)

I posted earlier in the week how eager I was for the Target in the town where I work to mark their clearance down to 90%. I had literally been stopping by everyday since it hit 70% off. I had settled for a phone call friday, and I was so sure the lady who answered was going to tell me that was the day. When she told me it was still 70, I sent over one of my "kids" when he picked up his paycheck to check it out in person (Thanks, Alex!!) but he confirmed what she had said. I called over Saturday am with fingers crossed, and a very pleasant Stephanie told me that was the day (she even knew it was me calling!!). I hopped over there on my lunch break and scored pretty well!
Paid: $44.75, saved $309.52!!!
Here's a breakdown of everything we picked up:
 two kids shirts originally $9.00, paid $0.90!

After I was done work for the day, I spent some time organizing my Christmas supplies. I found I needed more ribbon and Christmas cards, so I ran back out to target, but they were out of kid-friendly cards, though I did score quite a few rolls of ribbon (including some nice pink and blue that is perfect for birthday presents!) for 30 cents a roll and a lot of tissue paper (again, some yellow and silver and pink and blue--perfect for birthdays!) for 20 cents a package. Between this year and last year, I think I have enough boxes and bags to last the next 4 or 5 years!!

My collection of bags and boxes--all scored in the last two years at 90% off!!
I've been saying throughout the year that Target is my favorite store to shop at---and this is one of the many reasons why!!! :):):)
