My Memphis Mommy: Walmart Fill All your Stockings for Under $25

Walmart challenged me to to buy all my stocking essentials @ Walmart for under $25. Walmart make s this easy as they are offering savings on popular stocking stuffers including approximately 20,000 gifts under $5 and several aisles dedicated to $1 candy, toys and games in Walmart stores nationwide.

I couldn't believe all the stuff I found!! Stockings are a HUGE tradition in our family, in fact that is all that my husband and I get each other is a stocking and we allow up to $25 each since this is our only gift to each other, so I focused mostly on our two girls ages, 5 and 3! I also decided to a theme to their stockings. During the Black Friday Sales I was able to price match the Target price of Toy Story 3 and get it for $13 and then I used two rebates, Campbell's Soup and Rayovac and got it for $5 each rebate so final price for the Toy Story 3 DVD $3, I am going to put this in my husband's stocking!!!
Items I bought:

Toy Story 3 Popcorn Container and Popcorn $2.00 x's 2 $4.00
Toy Story 3 Combo bath pack 2 character scrubbies & bath gel $5.00 split them one for each girl
4 Count Puzzle pack $1.00 (split for both girl and the polar bear one for the hubby)
Disney Fairy hair stuff $1.00 (split for both girls)
Toy Story 3 candy canes with character ornaments 4 pack $2.00 split between the 3 stockings
Candy Canes filled with candy: one with Sweet tarts, one with Hershey's pieces, one with Mike & Ike $1.00 each x's 3, $3.00
Sticker pack with 200 stickers and perforated for sharing 100 each $1.00 split between girls
Ice Cream and Cup-cake Soap, $1.00 each x 2, $2.00
Beauty Sweet Lip Gloss in Ice Cream container, $1.00 each x 2, $2.00
Toy Story 3 Movie $3.00 (explained above)
Polar Bear Chocolate for husband $1.00
Snickers Nutcrakcers advertized Sale @ Walgreens 3/$1.00 price matched and used coupon from Redplum 12/5 $2.00 off 3 Final Price, FREE for all 6 chocolates

TOTAL FOR ALL THREE STOCKINGS $25

My favorite items I found I wanted you see a close-up of this is one of the candy canes with the Toy Story 3 Ornament, and the cupcake soap ($1.00) and the lip gloss ($1.00). My girls are going to love those!
