Sephora Haul- November 2024

Published on by essieofwhoLeave a comment

This year, I decided to cut back on shopping for certain things. One of those things has been beauty products. Although I still like to shop for them, I decided to cut back due to several reasons, including worries about the economy and my budget.

Even though I cut back quite a bit from shopping for beauty products, I did end up splurging on myself this month. November is my birthday month and Black Friday sales, so there were other perks that caused me to go on a shopping spree for beauty products.

One of the stores I decided to shop at was Sephora. I wanted to purchase enough to make my Beauty Insider membership go to VIB level, so I bought more than I normally would throughout the year. Even though it did bother me to purchase so many products at once, I am extremely happy I purchased the ones I did!

Since Black Friday is this Friday, I decided to publish all the shopping haul posts I wrote. I’m starting with my Sephora sale haul.

Wicked Part 1 Mini Backpacks at Walmart

Published on by essieofwhoLeave a comment

Musicals have been a major part of my life. I grew up watching musicals. As a teen, I used to listen to soundtracks to musicals just as much as any other singer or band I liked. As an adult, I had to let go of my passion for musicals due to adult obligations. Yet, I still try to keep up to date with what musicals are currently playing on Broadway.

One of the musical soundtracks I enjoyed listening to as a teen was Wicked. I loved Glinda, but I always felt like my life was more like Elphaba. Because of my love for both characters, I always have a hard time picking the kind of merchandise I like more.

In November, part 1 of the movie version of Wicked will be released. I really enjoy looking at the merchandise inspired by the movie and deciding which ones I like the most. One of the most fun items I found was the mini backpacks inspired by the movie.

Modern Moments x Harry Potter Children’s Sweater Collection at Walmart

Published on by essieofwhoLeave a comment

During a recent trip to Walmart, I found what I think are the cutest sweaters I’ve seen in quite a while. They are part of the Modern Moments x Harry Potter collection and are available at Walmart. All the sweaters are for children and come in sizes 12 months to 5 T. They are also unisex sizes. The timing of the release of this collection is perfect for fall/Halloween time.

They were too cute not to stop by and take pictures of them… and wish they came in adult sizes as well!

Mrs. Meyer’s Clean Day Holiday Hand Soap Collection

Published on by essieofwhoLeave a comment

Mrs. Meyer’s Clean Day is a brand I enjoy using. I prefer to use the all purpose cleaner and dish soap to their other products.

Earlier this month, my Walmart began to sell Mrs. Meyer’s Clean Day hand soaps. Although the hand soaps are available year round, the ones I found are in their seasonal scents.

In early September, my local Walmart started to put out their Halloween decorations. At that time, there weren’t many officially Halloween decorations available to browse or purchase. Yet, there were Jack-o-Lantern available to purchase. I really enjoy looking at Jack-o-Lanterns, so I stopped and browsed what the store had available.

Walmart Halloween 2024 Throw Pillows

Published on by essieofwhoLeave a comment

It’s that time of the year when Halloween decor is available in stores. For Halloween fans, this is the time to browse and purchase new decor to add to their collection. For someone like me, I don’t like decor that is too creepy, scary, or horror inspired. I like cute and classic Halloween decor.

This is why I fell in love with Walmart’s 2024 Halloween throw pillows. They fit into my Halloween style and are quite affordable. I enjoyed seeing them so much I decided to talk about them in a post!

Walmart Fall 2024 Throw Pillows

Published on by essieofwhoLeave a comment

I just finished writing posts about the fall decor at Walmart this year. Among the fall decor was throw pillows. I debated if I should include the throw pillows in the 2024  fall decor posts, but I decided to dedicate a separate post to them.

My local Walmart does carry throw pillows, but they normally have the seasonal throw pillows available at larger Walmarts. This year, they began to carry more seasonal throw pillows. For the fall, there were multiple pillows available. I was happy to see them available.

2024 Fall Decor at Walmart Part 2

Published on by essieofwhoLeave a comment

It’s time for the second post on my two part Walmart fall decor! In 2024, there were many fall decorations available at my local Walmart. I was really happy to see it! My Walmart is smaller than other Walmarts I see online. This is why there are often times less decor available to browse and purchase than others. This year, there were more decor than in pervious years. (Including some pre-pandemic years)

In this post, I wanted to focus on all the decor in other parts of the seasonal section of the store. These include pumpkins, bales of hay, and scarecrows.
