Your bags are great, Tori! Now I have even MORE evidence to show my FI to convince him that we need to go to the states for a shopping trip

Thanks!!!!! Oh it is SOOOO worth it!!! I went to compare prices at the stores here and the pepto I got for $4.97 (or something) is $9 something here!!!! SAME THING I was appalled!!!!! An FYI to Canadian brides though, Dollarama has the 10ct advils (same as in my bags) for $2 right now I paid $1.97 in the states so this is a GREAT deal!!!!!!!

Tori,

You are totally amazing!! thanks for all of the detail. I am taking your whole list with me as we are taking a driving vacation down through Chicago and Wisconsin and I had planned to shop for OOT supplies while in the US. Thanks for helping a fellow Canuck

Huge thank you! (My FH probably doesnt thank you for all the stops we will be making and the amount of stuff I will be hauling back) heehee

ps green and navy is a great combination, looks so chic and nautical. I chose royal blue and white with hints of lime, sunshine yellow and fuschia pink!

Your bags are gorgeous!!! I love the colors and thank you for the shopping break down. Good job!

Oh that is fantastic! I am so glad I can help!!! I was very happy FI was not with us on this particular US shopping excursion as my mom and I are on the same wave length when we're shopping and I think he may have strangled the both of us!!!! I love the sounds of your colours and look forward to hearing what great finds you pick up along your travels!!! As a Canadian bride is it hard sometimes so I am glad that you can get a US trip in and take advantage of the HUGE price different. Everything at michaels here is at least 50% mark up (was there the other day) so if you have a trip planned to the states it is soooo worth it to pick the stuff up there!!! Enjoy and thanks again

Gotta love Walmart, I am actually going to head back over to the states and pick up a few more. We were at a family get together in FIs mom and dad's home town this weekend and found out about 15-20 people we weren't expecting are coming!!!! We are more than happy to have them but also don't want them to feel left out when everyone else is carrying around their mugs and bags... and I thought my OOT bag days were behind me! haha!!!!

I used pink cardstock for our pepto bag tops.
