To all of you MEAN, SELFISH people....

I cannot believe all of you out there have kept this from me! I know most of us don't really KNOW each other really well or anything, but hey, I thought we were still FRIENDS! I found out about this completely by accident today. I was very SHOCKED to say the least.


How could you have kept this little gem a secret from me for SOOOOO long??? How is it, that I am just now finding out about this???








I mean, I know that several of you may have casually mentioned in a post or a hundred two that you have gotten a plate here or a picture there, but goodness gracious alive, I didn't know what BARGAINS there were to be found in this place!!
Isle after Isle of goodies at just unbelievable prices!!

Why didn't ya'll yell "Robin, get off that big ol' slacker bootie of yours and GO TO ROSS!!!" ????
HUH? HUH? Well, I'M WAITING!!!!!

Well, since I had to find out about this little gem all on my own.......I wanted to SHARE what good bargains that I found today.

See folks.....it's called SHARING!

Here are three Melamine bowls in cute spring colors that I got for $4.49/each. (I thought these would be great to eat popcorn out of!) Six little individual stainless containers with lids for $3.99. (Great for hubby to carry condiments to work in, or to put syrup for dunking in) Two purple ramekins for $1.49/each, and a gorgeous green ceramic casserole dish for $5.99.

I am planning on using the little black wire basket ($3.99) in the kid's bathroom. (Maybe to put hand towels in) A set of four small melamine bowls ($4.99) that I have no idea what I will do with, but they were just so cute! Two packs of curtain rings for an amazing @2.99/each! I have bought the EXACT same curtain rings at Target for $7.99 a pack! (I use these for several of my craft projects.) Some random clips for $1.99. And my FAVORITE thing....a set of four black and tan square plates that I got for $2.49/each!! They are a PERFECT match to our bedroom colors...so I am thinking I will hang them on the wall somehow!


I got this adorable little 3-D picture for $3.99. I think I am going to put it on the small wall in the kid's bathroom. (yeah, I've really got to get some adhesive remover on that sticker....GRRRR)


I am the MOST upset about this little find! I got this hamper for a whopping $6.99!! I am upset because one month ago, I bought two hampers VERY similar to this for 10 times more!!!! I am just SICK!!!

SO, for those out there in blogland who are looking for great deals....
GO TO ROSS!!!

And for those of you who kept this secret hidden from me.....apologies are expected in the "comment" section.

  1. Isn't Ross just the greatest! Have you also been to TJMaxx? If not then you need to go there. My daughter always tells me she wants anything off any shelf at TJMaxx for her birthday. Good stuff too. Now my favorite place has become the GW. I live where there are a lot of senior citizens and they get to cleaning out the cupboards and I find the neatest things. I guess that's all the good haunts I have to offer. Glad you found Ross. Hugs, Marty

  3. Marty, I know....TJ Maxx is great too. We have both in the very same shopping center, I've just never ventured into Ross. Dumb me, I just thought they sold clothes! LOL!

    Now I want to go back RIGHT NOW!!

  5. lmao! i don't have ROSS here.. and it stinks!!!
    i actually spent lots of time there, while redecorating a friend's house in tx. we found lots of bargains! they're right.. tjmaxx is a similar store, but if you want my opinion..it's not as good. [not as bright, clean, or organized]

  12. Hey now, you got me all excited about this Ross place, I am thinking this could be my new favorite, forget TJ Maxx or even Home Goods,I now will go to Ross! I flew over to their website to find out where one of these gems is located and am sad to say the closest one is 219 miles away, boo hoo. I will have to stick with what I have and hope that they come up my way soon! Sue

  13. Silvia and Sue....I'm so sorry that you don't have one near you... :o( That's worse than not knowing about it.
    I will say that it is VERY similar to TJ Maxx, but the prices are better.

  20. Bwwaaahhhaaaa! I monster is born! Girlfriend, if'n I knew you had never been to Ye Ole' Ross store I would have driven to Atlanta and dragged your slacker backside over there myself. Now - carry thee straightways to a Marshall's and then right to a HomeGoods. If there's a TJMaxx along thee way, stop there too. I loved all your goodies. Hugs, Barb

  21. Barb...I don't even have to go as far as Atlanta to get to Ross....I have one that is....get this...only 15 minutes away!!! WOOOOOOHOOOOO! We also have a TJ Maxx and Marshall's in the same shopping center!
    I think the nearest HomeGoods is still an hour away, though. :o(
