The Sewing Mom

We are definitely turning into a softball family and softball supplies aren’t cheap. Yesterday I even had to make an emergency trip to a sporting goods shop to get warmer sweats because my daughter’s team was playing in a tournament and the temperature was 40 degrees at 8 a.m., the start time of their first game.

The team practices once a week, plus attends batting practice once a week. In between, it’s important for my daughter to practice her pitching, but it would be great if she could also keep her batting practice up on a more regular basis. I think I’ve found the answer, a batting cage that we can put in our backyard.

I found this one at Sears, and, even better, I can attend the Sears Friends & Family VIP Night tonight at the store from 6-9 p.m. or, I can even take advantage of the discounts tonight online from 6 p.m.-6 a.m. The discount is an extra 10% off almost everything, and an extra 5% off home electronics.  Plus, apparel and jewelry are an extra 15% discount and outerwear is an extra 20%.  That’s really good news considering how cold we were yesterday out at the ball fields, we could all use some new outerwear to prepare for the next softball tournament that is just 2 weeks away.

Besides shopping for softball, I plan to have all of my holiday shopping done soon and there is no way I’m venturing out of the house on Black Friday to deal with the crowds. With the Sears Friends & Family VIP Night I don’t need to wait until Black Friday to get the good deals, I can get them tonight, and so can you!
