You have the right place at the right time. I have to check it out.
You was lucky to get them on that glitch. It’s great to give back, I’m sure the babies and the ppl receiving the blankets will also benefit so much from your kindness. What a thoughtful way to give back. Love the new cakes too, beautiful colours.
I think so too! XX Kim
A few years ago, I walked into Hobby Lobby and their annual yarn clearance had just started:) Bought 51 skeins (average price $1.24). Still working thru them. Donated blankets to Project Linus and made scarves for Operation Gratitude. I felt guilty buying so much, but saw people on line who purchased twice the amount. Lol! Felt like a millionaire:)
Hi Morgan!! You are a millionaire in GOOD KARMA!!! You Made lovelies and gave back! I love this! XX Kim
I got an $850 ON CLEARANCE emerald and diamond ring for $85. I told them about it, they checked, said "oops, our mistake, but we absolutely will sell it to you at that price." So I did. The $850 was a clearance price. I think it was half off, so a $1700 ring for $85.
Hi!! WOW!!! Winner, winner chicken dinner!!! You DEFINITELY WIN!!! congratulations to you!!! I'll bet it's beautiful!! XX Kim
I just recently looked at the Caron cakes online and they said .39 cents but trying to pick one individually to put them in my online cart they were all out. I'm new at crochet and loving it. You are so Fun to watch! Thank you for all your energy and fun sharing. Congrats on the yarn 🤗
OHHHHHHH ME!! Whaaaa...39 cents?!?! I think I gonna cry...happy tears. Love your Be Honest attitude. You done good Kimberly!
haha! Thank you!! XX Kim
That was an awesome find! I would have cleared them out too! 😂
Right?! I don't feel too bad. 😆 XX Kim
Lol..never happened to me. I need to move to ur state. Lol
God bless u for working in a hospital! My last job was in a hospital. I was a medical social worker. I am so happy to hear that u also donate to charity. Ur my kind of person also.
Such a cool yarn deal!!! A happy day 🥳🥳
What a fantastic deal!! I have accidentally found those hidden bargain items there before too! Paying it forward for sure girl! 🎉❤
Yes! Thank you! XX Kim
.39¢ is awesome! I found a mistake deal once at Michael's too! It was 6 weight blanket yarn for .99¢ each. I left with 17 skeins! I love when I find amazing deals that make me feel like I'm stealing. 🤣 I'm like you tho, I have to ask permission. 👍👍
Here in Iowa a 12 pack of pop has a .60 cent can deposit, and the pop is usually around 2.99 +deposit. I had a grocery store that made an error and it rang up 48 cents plus deposit!
WOW!! That's a bargain!! Aren't those fun! :) Thanks for subscribing! XX Kim
So happy for you! 😊
omg 39 cents! how amazing is that!
Right!? 😂 XX Kim
lol!!!! I can really relate! I saw the new yarns last week on some RUclips channel. So the next day, my husband did FaceTime and bought me the same new yarns as you did. Love it😂
Apparently you have a wonderful husband like I do! 😅XX Kim
Wow what a deal for u
Hi!! It was indeed!!! 😁 XX KIm
I just subbed 😊. I bought that yarn like a week before you did I think before the glitch😂😂 😭. I wish I could of caught that glitch 😂
Hahaha! Glitches are the best!!
I’m glad you work in a hospital. I’m an RN and worked in a hospital for 20 years. I’m retired now and now I knit and crochet! I must say the yarns at the big box stores have really improved. I usually go to my LYS first. I do like to give them my business first. But now I’m crocheting with the red heart granny square all in one yarn. Wow works great for granny squares. No need to weave in any ends. Congratulations on your deal!!
Hi! ❤❤We do it for the love of the job don't we! I'm so glad you found my little corner of RUclips! I haven't retired yet (hopefully soon). Thanks for subscribing! XX Kimberly
I’m sooo jealous haha I didn’t think I’d wake up and choose to be envious today 😅
Ohhhh I'll just send you all the good juju for your day today! XX Kim
Great deal! And no, that never happens for me. Can’t wait to see what you make.
Sending you good vibes for a "Bargain" ;) XX Kim
This was funny! 39 cents. Beautiful colours!
Haha!!!! Thanks! :) It was a fun day!!! XX Kim
Hey Kim cant wait to see what you make I ordered the Ombre the other day but purchased The 5 weight last week .
Your man Loves you
Awesome! Thank you! I'll keep you posted!! XX Kim
The grocery store meant to order a case a Hershey cocoa powder, they actually ordered a pallet. To get rid of it they sold it for a nickel a container. I didn't have to buy baking cocoa for 5 years. It freezes just fine. I bought 3$ worth. (60 baking cocoa powder boxes.)
That is AWESOME!!! Well done you!!! XX Kim
Wow that's great I wish I could get to Jo-Ann's and see if I can get a deal like that. Ground is covered in snow so I'm not driving into Springfield I live in Missouri. I believe the difference between acrylic and polyester is polyester is natural fiber acrylic is man-made I could be wrong
Ah THANK YOU!!! Stay Warm please!!! Shop online LOL! XX Kim
WOW... Exciting ❤❤❤.
Hi Kimberly, I am a new subscriber and I really enjoyed your video today, I am a knitter and crocheter. I love to make all kinds of different things. Right now I am really into doll and toy making. I do a lot of smaller amigurumi projects as well as bigger toys. I just finished an aviator bear, with goggles and leather like jacket. It has been a lot of fun. Last year I also did my first pair of Selbu mittens and made several Norwegian style hats. I go kind of wherever the muse takes me. I enjoy your channel and look forward to seeing more videos in the future! Have a wonderful Sunday. :)
Hi Delisa! Welcome to my channel, I'm so happy you found my little corner of YT! I look forward to seeing you around her a lot more! ;) Please consider joining my FB group "Kimberly with Knit for Brains" so you can chat with others and share pics of your wonderful work! Thank you for subscribing! XX Kim
I am currently knitting a raglan sweater with the Ombre Hues yarn. It’s a light & soft yarn… I find that it tends to split so be careful when knitting or crocheting but it’s working up so beautifully. 🧶🧶
Great tip! Thank you Dawn! XX Kim
Hey Kimberly. We have a surprise Grandson. He is BEAUTIFUL and what a Blessing he is. Lots to explain and it's not very interesting to most ppl. Where do you sell your stuff? Question is brewers yeast the best stuff to help build up milk? My Daughter is having a very difficult time of it, so after breast feeding for 15 minutes on each side she has to bottle feed. She does have a pump, that just.kills her. between both, the baby boy is growing FAST!! My poor daughter sure feels like she feels like such a failure. My youngest grandchild will be 15 yrs old at the end of this month. 3 miscarriages, between. He IS our blessing. Even our daughter says so. But post pardon blues has her BIG time. Any suggestions??
Hi Sherrie! First of all, oh my goodness, congratulations!! How wonderful!! I don't currently sell my things, I just make for gifts, charity or myself. :) With regards, to your daughter, I'm sorry...it can really be difficult...deep breaths. There are lots of things she can do to increase her supply. I would recommend she find a licensed lactation consultant in her area. Ask at the hospital where she delivered, perhaps they have resources. She can also speak to her OBGYN or pediatrician for referrals. Brewers Yeast has been known to improve supply but there are lots of products out there. I would suggest she speak to a LC or one of her doctors and get their recommendations. Congratulations again to all of you! XX Kim
Oh man I wish I had seen your video before my Michael’s trip tonight. I never scanned a skinny cake because I didn’t totally love any of the colors I saw but I had a cinnamon swirl and then went with a coconut cake. But I so should’ve scanned a skinny cake just in case. 😂
I’ve definitely scored a few hidden deals there before. Scored a bunch of happy planners for like $1-3 last year.
It may have been just the store I was at...but it always pays to price check! Lol! Xx Kim
green with envy 😵💫
haha! I know I'm sorry!!! I'd send you some if you lived closer! XX Kim
😆 Ya did what I would do...lol. Enjoy!
🤗🤗 Thanks! Kim
Gurrrlllll.... i aint bought yarn all week, and the glass one is talking to me..
Beautiful yarns, you scored! Right on, SD always has the best deals haha
Right!! LOL XX Kim
polyester and acrylic are both synthetic fibers but they have different properties and textures and wash and wear differently. polyester is generally softer than acrylic but acrylic has come a long long way over the last few years.
Well now see...THIS is the BEST explanation I've heard!!! Thank you so much @CraftnMomma! This makes so much sense!! XX Kim
The “buy one get one for 50% off” is just 25% off both.
True, but you have to buy 2 to get the discount. Still a great deal (I think). :) XX Kim
Awesome deal on the yarns. I have only happened to me twice. The first time I bought 6 5.00 grab bags for 30 dollars and ended up with over 600 dollars on 2018. Thanks for sharing ❤❤❤❤❤❤
Oh wow! Well done!! XX Kim
In hand dyed yarns.
WOW .39 cents awesome. You got a awesome deal ❤
I think so too! XX Kim
People who work retail typically don't care if you're undercharged because they make the same regardless. If anything they're typically excited for your great find lol
Exactly!!! I have a really good friend who works at my local Michaels and she'll text me when they are having a big clear out!! #friendsingoodplaces :) XX Kim
❤😂😂
😂 my thoughts exactly!!
They don’t care when they cheat you I have been in there when it was supposed buy 1 get 1 half off but all rang up full price and they accused me of trying to cheat them I had to demand they go let me show them the sign before they would adjust the price so if its their mistake I say so be it I would have bought every one that they had in the store.
Thank you!! I'm glad I alerted the clerk, and STILL got the deal! Glad your here! XX Kim
I do not drive due to mobility issues, so unable to get to the store to get a deal like that.
Hi Cynthia! I totally understand! Although really great sales and deals can be found on line too! Lion Brand is offering big sales right now, as well as Michaels and I'm sure others! :) XX Kim
And hey no judgment on the deal you scored and no need to apologize or justify it! I mentioned my happy planner steal (and I only took the three I could and would use) and I’ve had several other similar deals. Pays to check the scanners in store or use store apps because I found some $1.50 mandala cakes at Walmart and at Midwestern grocery chain Meijer I also scored some like .49 cent mandala and then there were a few coboos that weren’t coming up in the system at all. I had to laugh when the store employee seeing it was a smaller skein (not realizing coboo is a much more expensive yarn) just decided to give me those for 39 cents apiece.
All these wins I found while literally homeless and in a really rough place in my life. Crocheting helped me survive and I would wander yarn aisles and craft stores all the time for something to do so I had a knack for really spending a lot of time and looking out for clearance yarns. It was the only way I could afford yarn. So it was kind of a lifesaver for me at the time but as long as whoever buys it uses it I mean go ahead, no judgment.
Hi! Thank you for your sweet comment, and NO JUDGEMENT HERE EITHER! I'm so happy you found crochet as your "sane place." I think it's that way for a lot of us! So glad you are here! XX Kim
Is there a scanner on the Micheals app?
Hi! I don't know about a scanner but they have self checkout. :)
$0.39 😮 I'm so jelly 😫
😂😂 haha thank you! XX Kim
No I have not .
Where was it? Mission Valley?
I was in North County, CMR.
I love the omrbe loops and threads but it snags so much and makes me sad cause I bought so much
oh I haven't tried it yet, I'm hoping I wont have a problem with it. :(
@@Kimberly_Knit4Brains as long as you frog it gently I’m sure it’s fine but even when I did do that it still got stuck once in a while and wasted my whole starting point so yeah I wish you luck!!! 🍀🥰
Where did you bury your pug?
Hi Evelyn, I ordered a beautiful windchime/suncatcher with her name on it, as well as a plaque. I put it in her favorite "sunny" place in our backyard.
So you found an obvious mistake and took advantage ............ How about after scanning, you instead alerted the salespeople so they could have done something to fix it, of course giving you the low price that it rang up on your particular skein ......... I am super glad that I do not live in your area as I would have been so disappointed to see that someone had completely wiped out something that I came there for ........
Thank you for your comment. I'm making hats for NICU babies and my local shelter. :) XX Kim
Their mistake, you're hella haul.
That's what I thought too! 😅 XX Kim
