It’s time for another Thursday Thoughts! If you want to participate, but have no idea what a link-up is, you can check out my explanation of it here.

~First things first. I found my name on a Diet Coke. OMG, L and I were so excited in Target. The other shoppers must have thought we were nuts. It seriously felt like I won the lottery. And then I stumbled into Coconut Milk EOS right by all the other EOS Lip Balms (OMG) and THEN I found a tape dispenser in the shape of a shoe in the exact colors of my office. Seriously. What are the odds of that? Love it.

~Has anyone tried the new Lays chip flavors from their new “Do Us A Flavor” campaign?  I picked up all the bags over the weekend and man, I don’t know about these.  Unless the Cappuccino chips have caffeine in them (which they don’t) I have no use for them.  The Cheddar Bacon Mac & Cheese is also not for me – although I wasn’t expecting to like them.  The Mango Salsa ones are okay, but I think I like more that they are wavy than anything else.  I am surprised by it, but I like the Kettle Cooked Wasabi Ginger the best.  I don’t know if I would buy a bag of them again, but it was super fun to try them all!  If you are bored at the office this will make for a fun afternoon break!

~The Bachelor in Paradise.  This is a total mess.  I had no idea what was going on the entire time I was watching (and couldn’t figure out why all the ladies were after Graham), but I am already pumped for next week.  And I did a little googling on what crazy Michelle’s problem is and why she left and yeah, let’s just say next week is going to be good.

~Not too sure what we have on tap this weekend.  L is headed up north for a few days and B has army stuff half the weekend, so who knows what we will do.  Hopefully WB and I get a chance to sort through some more stuff for the garage sale.

Super unrelated to this post, but I love when L sends me selfies.

~I have been getting subscription box shipping notifications left and right these fast few days.  I am waiting on BOXYCHARM, Dottiebox, Fabletics, Hamptons LaneSample Society, Yuzen and a few more I can’t remember off the top of my head.  And I know my PopSugar has shipped, but that’s not going to get here until next week.

~Oh, so the entire reason we went to Target (where we found the Jennifer Diet Coke) yesterday morning was to look for more clearance Legos.  We went to my favorite Target which is a tad far away (30min), but it’s awesome.  And we scored!  70% off Legos is seriously huge.  It’s probably going to be impossible to find anymore, but I think we are set until the next Target toy clearance!  Our Kroger has Legos for 50% off fairly often as well.  I have never seen them for more than 50% off there, but that is a good deal as well.

~I finally watched the first ever episode of Dating Naked (I couldn’t find Married at First Sight anywhere on my tv) and wow, what an awkward mess.  I didn’t realize that the “couples” had to interact with each other and double date with people they went on a date with the night before.  How odd.  In a great way.  I can’t wait to watch more!

    Yay! My mom tries to talk me into buying a Coke with my name on it whenever we go to the store, LOL! Where did you find the “Do us a flavor” Lays at? I can’t find any of them wherever I go!

    1. Jennifer

      Target!!

  2. Laura K

    I love those Scotch tape dispensers. Mine is a Chameleon.

  3. Stacie

    I have that tape dispenser on my desk at work! I just have the black one though. I also have sticky notes that look like a sandwich. My coworkers crack up every time they walk in my office.
    I’ve been wondering about those chips! I feel like MAYBE I’d like the mac and cheese ones, but not so sure about the others. Especially the cappuccino. Might have to try them all just to see though.

    1. Jennifer

      Try them all! It was really fun.

  4. Lori

    I haven’t got my Popsugar shipment notification yet but I’m always in the last wave, it seems. Do you think we’ll get spoilers this week still? Fingers crossed!!!

    1. Jennifer

      Oh and I haven’t gotten my notification yet either. No one has. You can track by reference on fedex.com. Your reference number is your subscription number.

  5. Jill

    Was there any duplo lego sets on sale?

    1. Jennifer

      I got one. An ice-cream one. I am guessing there were others, but I am not sure.

      1. Jill

        Ooh, I will have to go check it out!

  6. Liz

    yay you found your coke! I was surprised I found mine too.

  7. Kelsey

    Did you get a shipping notification from pop sugar when your box goes out? I just joined but haven’t gotten anything yet.

    Ps did you get your august wantables intimates yet?? I loved mine!!

    1. Jennifer

      No! It hasn’t shipped. I hope it gets here soon though!

  8. Laura

    Married at first sight is on the FYI network (previously the Bio network). It’s a crazy show try to find it. I just read it has been renewed for a second season.

    1. Jennifer

      I can’t find it on iTunes or Hulu!!

    2. Tammy

      I’m watching that show. It’s really interesting, but maybe not enough drama for you
      Jennifer 🙂 at least not yet….

  9. Beth

    So….totally off topic. I google stalked Levo…..signed up last week. Guess what showed up in my inbox yesterday and guess what I ordered today?!?!? Thats right – Tieks! Woot. Hope I love them as much I think I will….I got metallic pewter thinking that should match everything.

    1. Jennifer

      Woot woot!!!! I ordered the coral patent but want another….

      1. Tiffany

        Can you tell me what you google stalked to get the email! im dying for a pair of these.. and $50 off would be amazing!! 🙂

        1. Jennifer

          I think they sent out the last batch yesterday.

  10. Beth

    How long is the Target toy clearance going on? Until everything is sold out? My closest Target is about 45 minutes away and I had planned on going there tomorrow for a wedding gift anyways. I hope I can score some 70% off legos. This Target is not in a big city, so I’m hoping they still have plenty left! and I hope they have some Minecraft toys on clearance! (I don’t know why, but Minecraft toys are soooo expensive!) …I need to start stocking up for Christmas!

    1. Jennifer

      It doesn’t really ever end. The stuff just sells out or they clear it off the shelves. You should be fine tomorrow. Not sure what they will have left! Sometimes the stuff isn’t tagged and that’s how I find a lot of it!

  11. Lindi

    I received my Dottiebox today and love it!

    1. Jennifer

      I got mine yesterday too! What candle did you get??

    I LOVE Married At First Sight — but I think thats because I can TOTALLY relate to the stories of the couples {married my husband after only 3 days}. Its on the DIY network, if thats a channel you get.

    1. Jennifer

      After I read this I went to your blog to refresh myself with the story! So incredible. I tried to leave you a comment about it, but my blogger settings must be all screwed up or I need to clear my cookies because it wasn’t there ;(.

      1. Ashley c.

        If you are trying to do it mobile, click on the home at the top, before any of the posts, and a menu will pop up. Or should lol

        1. Jennifer

          I’m doing it from my computer. It works from my phone, but on my laptop it lets me leave a comment in the box and then disappears. So odd.
