More Shopping Deals at Tuesday Morning!

I made a trek into another local Tuesday Morning yesterday after going to the post office and hit paydirt. This was better than expected. I was able to get all Barbie the Look articulated dolls for $14.99!  Barbie The Look tea party has severe cuts on her box so I asked at the register about that and they gave me 10% off. It was about 1.39 off, but the box was damaged and looked like someone mangled it. They were not going to sell it for full price at any price looking like that anyway. I plan to debox her anyway. She is running $29.95 at Barbie Collector , I figure I got her for 13.60 with the damage to the box.Score!




The next one was Barbie The Look In the Jungle? I think, she is the one used alot on Barbiestyle on Instagram and is just adorable.


She's really cute re-dressed. I can't believe I got her for this price without having to pay shipping from Barbie Collector. She is still pretty high there. She is running on sale at $27.99 at Barbie Collector. 



She has some cool accessories and her face really is so cute and not sappy looking. I really like her! In fact I love of all of them. I think Mattel hit it out of the part with these look dolls that are articulated. 
the back of the box...



A closeup of the damage on the left of Tea's box and her accessories. She is so lovely. 


I also purchased Barbie The Look AA Night out. Her accessories and her dress, the whole ensemble, are stunning. This is one gorgeous little lady! At Barbie Collector she is running $29.95. I paid $14.99



Her face is really lovely with the updo, very elegant too. And the makeup accessories are wonderful. I love that dress!

After these three beauties, I found more basics the Look City Shine for $9.99. At Barbie Collector these little ladies are running $19.95



I don't have the blonde in my stash. She is lovely. I probably won't de-box her just yet. She may make a great gift for someone this Christmas or for my collection. 



I love the makeup on her face , she is really lovely. 



Back of the box. So far I have all four now...





Barbie the Look City Shine the Asian. I already have one of these but I purchased another as a possible gift for my friend Karon who loves everything Japanese. I might possibly make her into a custom doll for Karon with a Japanese flair gown. She loves anything like that and this doll has a lovely face. Karon collects mainly Fashion Royalty , Poppy Parker and Misaki but does love the occasional OOAK too. 

So that is what is waiting for you at Tuesday Morning! So get out there and get those deals!

Shopping at Tuesday Morning....

Before I attended the Doll show this weekend, I made the mistake of going to Tuesday Morning while on the way to Walmart. I was actually looking for Easter decorations. I should know better. I went down the toy aisle. 

I found the Barbie the Look City Shine AA doll for $9.99 so I purchased two of her. 



I have learned from experience it is always better to buy two or three of dolls like this at this price for gifts later on for my friends when holidays roll around and then I don't have to gift shop. They may already have her but then again, might not. I shop like this for the Barbie Look dolls which on the average, at full retail were anywhere from 19.99-24.99 when they were debuted or on Barbie Collector website. So I always have a gift ready for my stash around Christmas or one of my dolly friend's birthday. 

I also found the Wild Adventure Blue Box Deer Hunter and Fisherman , both for $7.99 . I loved their accessories. 





I love the antlers, bow, and bag. He looks so real! The price is fantastic too. 






Here is the bass fisherman. I love the trophy, the fish, the fishing pole, it is all so spot on. There are alot of tournament fisherman in the area here where I live and my husband used to tournament bass fish years ago. I might save this for a gag gift for our anniversary for him. 

So that is what you might want to watch out for at your Tuesday Morning, the City Shine dolls- I have also snagged the redhead, a hard to find one and the Asian back haired one as well already, but I didn't buy multiples. I may start looking at other Tuesday Mornings for the dolls so I can have some on hand. I wanted multiples of the redhead because I wanted to do a custom doll on her like my Steampunk Butterfly. These are perfect little dolls for that. 

Happy Shopping!

Tuesday Morning bargains...

Sorry for being so late with a post in the new year, but I have been very busy of late. Part of it is the preparations for the frigid cold temperatures here in Virginia- there hasn't been anything like this since 1988, according to the weather and years before that as well. Last night it was 7 degrees! Hubby and I had alot of preparations to do on the vehicles and the house, making sure pipes would not feeze, etc.
I finally got it together to go by a local Tuesday Morning I had not been to in a while to check the deals out and look for another Emmett Twilight doll..I have all of the Twilight dolls except Edward. But I want another Emmett for a very ambitious project I am currently working on, which I will reveal more on later. After reading Vanessa's post on her Tuesday morning Fashion Dolls at Van's Doll Treasures I decided to go by and see if I couldn't score some great deals.


My first score was an Only Hearts Fairy Prince & Unicorn set. I have never seen an Only Hearts club boy doll, he is Prince Trevor on the orange unicorn. $9.99  His little fairy costume and crown come off revealing a plain stuffed/wired body in blue denium underneath. I plan to use him in the family/project I am working on, and he will be redressed, I will more than likely paint his little shoes which do not come off. The unicorn is cute and will make a great gift for someone.
I scored more Only hearts outfits for 3.99. The little sneakers are great and they do fit Poppy Parker! I bought two matching outfits as these fit Stacey dolls and some of the items also fit mini American Girl dolls as well as the Chelseas.

 Sorry about the photos being fuzzy. More Only Hearts items were for the small toddler dolls, shoe paks and clothing packs at .99 cents each.



These are great deals, and I think besides fitting some of the Kelly dolls, they will also fit my tiny Felix Brownie Bjd's.

The best deal at this Tuesday Morning was this Barbie Basics the look doll- city shopper with the brunette. I had already scored the blonde with the grey sweater dress on and the more popular Steffie one. I hadn't been able to snag the African American one with the beautiful ponytail, I could never find her. I love this brunette but had given up on getting her from either Target or Tuesday Morning! I love these Barbie Basics as they come with shopping bags, and cute outfits that look good on the Fashion Royalty dolls.
As I move farther along on my new diorama project, which will be indepth and time consuming- I will post pictures. I am taking my time as there is alot to do before I get to the point where photos will be a good thing. Right now I am embarking on assembling the dolls for the doll family, as well as working on drafting their clothing and the furniture for the diorama as well. The only hints I will give is - it is a period historical diorama (no, not the Ingalls family again!) - much earlier- the 18th century. That is all I can give away at this point!
