A bread machine?! I totally hate you. LOL That is an awesome find.

You didn't happen to notice if they had a punch bowl, did ya? I can't find ours and I need one on Tuesday. I really don't see spending a ton of money for one since we don't ever use it.

I think they had this one on clearance for cheaper than that at Target, and I talked myself out of buying it when I saw it. Now, I've had a change of heart, went searching for one, and couldn't find one. So, I think I ended up paying about 10 bucks more for it than I could have, but at least I helped out a good cause. The gal at the register said they get a lot of things donated by Target, which is really nice.

LOL I got a clearance punch bowl w/glasses at HEB after Christmas--for $4.97!!! I got the glass cake holder, too--same price. I was sooooooooo thrilled! They were $20 originally. Sangria time.

I'm sure if they don't have one now, they will! Thrift stores are so fun.

Sapphy, I made some Hawaiin bread with my $10 bread machine last night. It is so awesome that I am pretty sure I've gained a pound today. We haven't been to the new GW yet, but will try during the week when it isn't as crowded.

OMG. I love my bread machine. The house smells fabulous! I can't believe I waited all these years..........SC, rub it in about your $10 machine! I was looking for a used one, but when one jumped out at me brand new, I had to buy it. This is the Krusteaz brand, Italian Herbs. I will be experimenting with some home-made versions next weekend, but I just wanted to break her in!

Mine didn't either, but they added an artistic element to my loaf.

Stuff was crazy tasty, too.
