Shopping Finds/In My Pantry: Earthlust, Klean Kanteen reusable water bottles and Liberty of London platters

I'm not always in the US, but boy is there great shopping there!  Luckily I can buy things and send them to my parent's house (thanks mom!)  I decided to start creating a shopping list post now and then to note some cool items and corresponding deals.  Hope this turns out to be useful for you!

I've become much more wary of all the bottled water I used to drink (sigh the environmental implications with transportation, production, and waste are sad).  So I decided to invest in stainless steel water bottles - definitely unique and worth the price (also saving you money over bottled water in the long run.)  Pretty water bottles are of course preferable.

I love the whimsical, functional, stainless steel, BPA-free, designs of Earthlust (eBay has some great deals on them and I had one waiting for me in NYC).  Each bottle is a custom design and painted with non-toxic paints.

Mr. Spend 'n Chomp wanted a simpler water bottle design so I got him a Klean Kanteen water bottle.  I found someone online that was able to refer me for $10 off so I got it for $1.95 + shipping ($7.90 total).  If you want the $10 off coupon too, here is my personal invitation for $10 off, $10 minimum,  for new customers (if you'd like me to be your referral, my email address is aimsweeps{@}yahoo.com, merci ♥).

 

I've also been thinking of platters for either bbqs or to organize some of the random items in my kitchen.  Of course my first thought was to take advantage of the Liberty of London for Target line because of the lovely designs and sturdy material.  The long, rectangular  platters are in store or on eBay only. 

I opted for this oval platter instead.  I think it's perfect for holding the random fruits and vegetables that are scattered on top of my microwave now!

I also had to get the bowls because the yellow interior was so lovely!

Target had a $10 off $75 for Liberty of London items which just ended and this can be combined with the $5 off $50 that frequently arrives in Target emails (bottom left corner of the page and the coupon comes frequently).

Have you used Earthlust or gotten great things from Target?

I also have a few Hermes scarves I've gotten great deals on, but that will be the next post!
