One of my favorite places to grab gifts for the holidays each year is an annual craft sale in Rochester, Minnesota. It is only open for about 3 hours and it feels a little bit like Black Friday shopping because people line up ahead of time because the shopping is THAT good. The really awesome thing is that the money raised is going to help kids in another part of our world have a chance to go to school.

This sale is happening again on Saturday, November 11th, and below are a few items that I know I'm hoping are still there when I show up.

Love Shopping at Target? $500 Target Gift Card Given Away Starting Monday!

I know going on a Target run is a bit like heaven for a lot of women. Sometimes the kids are with us screaming in the aisles as we sip on our Starbucks picking up items we never knew we needed, but sometimes this store is our escape from the #momlife.

If you love Target, make sure you've got the Y-105FM app because starting Monday, someone has a chance to score a $500 gift card to Target! Grab the app here.

Wow! Check out how Rochester has changed throughout the years in these Google photos.

As we are soaring down Hwy 52, it is hard to imagine what life was like in our town before the Target store was built where it is today. Or the house that you live in now, at one point in town, that wasn't there. In fact, Rochester has grown so fast throughout the years, most of our houses weren't even around 50 years ago! Don't believe me? Look through these photos to get a glimpse of what Rochester was like years ago.
