Unicorns abound

February 17: Had plans to go to lunch with a friend, we went to 5 Below afterwards.
Asian snack, dried mango, Bottlecaps, Magic ink activity book, Choco rocks.
A couple Pixar blind bags, a Pinata Fiesta blind bag, a couple 5 Surprise blind balls and a Pusheen blind bag.
The Pinata Fiesta:
This was really cute and fun, you pull the middle string on the bottom and doors on the bottom and both sides pop open to reveal confetti and surprises. I would totally buy this again.
My 5 Surprise ball:
These are kinda like those chocolate oranges you can get at Christmas, you 'peel' it by popping off a plastic piece on the top that holds the wedges together and then open each wedge which has a surprise in it. This time around I got a pom pom hair clip, a mermaid toy, a pony toy, some stickers and a stamp.
The My 5 Mini Brand Surprise:
Another ball to 'peel' this one had the shopping cart, Zatarain's rice, oregano, Velveeta and Lunchables. There's hundreds of mini brands to get. I like how you can open the rice and Velveeta boxes and put things in them.
The Pusheen box:
I was extra surprised how cheap this one was, Pusheen is usually very expensive.
Pixar Minis:
These were wicked cheap, too. I want them all except the Cars ones.
 I found my JoAnn's purchase waiting for me when I got home:
A Dotz diamond painting, unicorn school supplies stickers, sloth and coffee stickers, summer sticker book, stuffed unicorn, Fashionista washi stickers, unicorn charms, sprinkles stickers, Young Girl washi stickers.
February 18: Got to leave early to make up for Monday, it was weird getting home about the time I'd normally leave work. Work was kinda busy, it took awhile to get things done. Found one item in the mail:

A RAK. I like the variety.
Watched movies all afternoon. Made some cat ATCs:
February 19: Opened again at work and left early again. It was still nice. Headed over to Hobby Lobby to pick up tape. I went straight to it in the back, and didn't pick anything else up until I was at the register and then picked up a couple Surprizamals.
And of course one was one I already had. I could have looked at the colors and done better. I headed over to the grocery store next door and picked up lunch of a 2 pieces of chicken, cheesy potatoes and green bean casserole. I also picked up a Mtn Dew and some cheese bread. Found something in my mailbox:
Not sure what it was supposed to be for. The tag said SMS gnome/surprise, there was nothing gnome in the envelope and I didn't ask for a surprise. It was very disappointing. I was glad I got the Surprizamals. I got an Amazon package:
It's for a red tag, there's a ton of these money envelopes in the package. I wish she didn't send so many, I have no idea what I'll use them for.
February 20: I did not go back for more tape, I knew if I did I would get more Surprizamals (though I really wanted them) or go to another store, my self-control is not that good. I got a Christmas surprise and a surprise in the mail:
So not impressed. The 'Christmas surprise' is just a bunch of Christmas card fronts. I was in a bad mood from the moment I got up until the moment I went to bed.
February 21: I granted a wish for stationary and basically just put all the stuff I got the day before in an envelope:
I put together a unicorn tag:
And a wish for Lisa Frank stickers:
And a sticker bomb:
Got my laundry done, but was still grumpy for the day.
February 22: Had lunch with my parents from a local place, it was unexciting. I feel all our food places are unexciting. Found a few things in the mail. A pen pack tag:
Very disappointing, she sent extra but the only fun thing in the package was the pen with the cactus on top. You can get way more exciting pen packs at the Dollar Tree.
A mash-up:
This was from last year, it was a replacement for one they didn't put enough postage on, we were to send something llama, unicorn and sloth. Interesting how there's a ton of unicorn, but not much of the other two.
Also a surprise:
So, not interested. I talked myself out of going shopping that morning and really wanted to after opening the mail, but didn't. Everytime I get something I don't really like in the mail, I want to go shopping so I have something good. That's part of the reason I hold myself back.
I put together a Winner Takes All:
I said happy mail, that way I can pick how much I want to send.
I put together a sticker swap:
