NurseLissa Posted October 25, 2004 Share Posted October 25, 2004 bearhugs: I read on another board yesterday that the Pink Leapsters are gonna be really hard to come by this year. I think some one said that there WM got a shipment in and the toy manerger told them that was all for this year. DH and I decided not to chance it and picked one up at TRU 2 weeks ago for $24.99 then I saw one left at Target for $29.99 yesterday Melissa Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
genoandkiddo Posted October 25, 2004 Share Posted October 25, 2004 but somehow that list always grows..... LOL Why does that happen. Mine has grown from a couple of things to about six. When will it end. Of course if the ads aren't good this year, then I can always take things off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bearhuggz Posted October 25, 2004 Share Posted October 25, 2004 Nurselisa, Thank you for the heads up. I have seen the pink ones around here off and on and figured I might have to buy it early and then return it if I can get one on BF. I have not seen any for that cheap though. I will have to check Target and TRU tonight when I go up that way. genoandkiddo, Yeah it is amazing how that happens, but my list tends to grow while I am at the stores on BF not get smaller.... hmmm go figure.

genoandkiddo Posted October 28, 2004 Share Posted October 28, 2004 I use to like it, but then I found an easier way to get the odd presents wrapped without actually wrapping them. So then it turned to loving the bags so much, that I look for deals on Bags. I just have too many people to buy for. I really don't have much time any more with wrapping. I do wrap the girls's presents and some but for the most part, I Bag it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
starshine Posted October 28, 2004 Share Posted October 28, 2004 Geno you sound like my mom! She is a box or bag person. When I was a kid she would tape up my presents in a box really good and I wrapped them myself! LOL I enjoy wrapping presents I sit on my living room floor when my son is in school. Watch TV and wrap gifts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bearhuggz Posted October 28, 2004 Share Posted October 28, 2004 I too love to wrap gifts. I already started to wrap mine. I wrap my families, my mom's and almost ALL the presents for the Toys For Tots program that my local police department does (my guess is well over a thousand toys). My kids call me Santa's wrapping elf.... LOL I do love it but I hate to use too much of the same wrapping paper, so I always have to over stock on wrapping paper during the after Christmas sales.

genoandkiddo Posted October 28, 2004 Share Posted October 28, 2004 Don't get me wrong, you have to wrap some presents, I mean Santa only brings gifts that are wrapped in Santa paper right? For my family, Yes I will admit it is fun for them. But for everyone else, I just put the item in a bag, put some tissue paper in it and sign the card and voila your done. I try not to put more stress on myself. BAG IT!BAG IT! BAG IT! But you are right, for your family it is fun, otherwise Christmas Morning would be boring.

Neosolace Posted October 29, 2004 Share Posted October 29, 2004 LOL...I remember how much I LOVED my mom wrapping stuff up in bags........it's easier to peek that way! So I guess I won't be using bags for the good stuff I want to hide.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gordita Posted November 2, 2004 Share Posted November 2, 2004 just moved into a new house and cannot believe the $$$ we spend every single day buying stuff. it is incredible......... anyways, still have some stuff left over that I wish i could get a good deal on this BF....here's my list: 0) all in one home theater system for the bedroom (those small,cute sat speakers and a receiver+DVD box with sub) 1) either the sony or the pana 27" flat tv (or a major price drop on the 30" widescreen sanyo with integrated tuner at walmart) 2) some kinda wireless-G media server that would link my PC with my HT setup and allow me to play music in my living room and basement 3) TV stand for the bedroom 4) tv stand for the living room (z line series or something comparable that can house all my 4 components) 5) wireless camera with built-in web server so i can monitor my house from work. 6) small dinette set for the kitchen 7) snow thrower 8) standalone yard grill (i know i know.....its for next year) 9) patio set 10) lawn mower 11) replacement garage door opener with TWO remotes (the wifey keeps the lone one we have) oh maan......i'm scared to put anything else on my list..... maybe I should've just stayed put in my apartment...and gone on a nice vacation and bought that 42" DLP instead.... in the meantime, I'm scrambling around for every gift card I can lay my hands on...

kimichelle Posted November 2, 2004 Share Posted November 2, 2004 I'm planning on buying myself a Canon A75 for Christmas, so I hope someone has a BF deal on them.

Jaidensmom Posted November 3, 2004 Share Posted November 3, 2004 Okay for those of you looking for a cheap DVD player I just ordered ink for my printer and did this deal. Free Apex DVD Player and Free Shipping with a $25 purchase at Viking Office Products. www.viking.com Just put $25 worth of products in your cart and add the DVD Player, item #Y11-PRDVD and when you checkout, they deduct the price of the DVD Player $79.99!!!!!!!! If you don't think you can get in on the deals for BF for a cheap dvd player and can use something from this site then you might want to try this. II hope this helps someone. I know our x-mas is going to be tight this year and every lil deal helps Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
popeye32 Posted November 6, 2004 Share Posted November 6, 2004 New here also. Looking for a Portable DVD player, something 7 or larger in the $150 or less range without having to around to every store on BF I did see at bf04 that Office Max will be doing a 7" Portable DVD player for $139, but it does not say make or model. Anyone know what it might be? : Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarkBluStarrySky Posted November 6, 2004 Share Posted November 6, 2004 I'm hoping to find a good deal on a Gamecube for my kids, we have a PS2 already, but they really want a Gamecube too (well, ok, my husband and I play video games too, so it's sorta for the whole family) Also hoping for some deals on DVD's, video games, toys and tools. Can't wait to see the Wal-Mart, KB & Home Depot ads! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shelhop Posted November 7, 2004 Share Posted November 7, 2004 I'd like to find an awesome deal on a DVD/VCR combo. And my daughter is wanting a digital camera.

Brad Posted November 7, 2004 Author Share Posted November 7, 2004 I'd like to find an awesome deal on a DVD/VCR combo. And my daughter is wanting a digital camera. Lord knows that with five kids, there's a million things I wish would go on sale!Target has a Daewoo DVD/VCR combo starting today for $78.88. On Black Friday itself, OfficeMax has one for $59.99, RadioShack has one for $69.99 and Sears has a Toshiba for $99.99. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
outnumbered Posted November 7, 2004 Share Posted November 7, 2004 I'd like a portable DVD player for our minivan (w/pouch to hold it in place)...there'd have to be a really good deal on it for me to get it though (like $100 or less, so I'm doubtful). Will be getting some Craftsman stuff from Sears, probably some movies from whoever has them cheapest. Also hoping the Fisher-Price Laugh & Learn Home will be on sale. I try to get as much Christmas shopping done as possible on BF...it's the only way we can afford to give decent presents, LOL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
codysmom11 Posted November 7, 2004 Share Posted November 7, 2004 Hey everyone, it's another one of the newbies. This BF, I am looking for a t.v., clothes, digital camera, and an exercise bike. I have most of the computer stuff, and the game systems. I am about to go crazy trying to find the Walmart BF sales. Dana Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mitch252 Posted November 8, 2004 Share Posted November 8, 2004 First time poster! Love the site, suffice to say its at the top of my favorites list. This BF I am hunting for a home theater system under $250.00 bucks. I noticed the sears/Radio Shack BF ads here have 2 systems posted, but when I take the links to the actual item at the sears and radio shack sites, the price listed on them are the same as the BF price. Not sure what the deal with that is. Unless the everyday online price is the same as the upcoming BF prices. Anyways good luck to all and happy hunting!
