  1. Surprisingly, both my Target AND my Best Buy still had the bundles available yesterday afternoon. The one I ordered from Amazon had already shipped, so I didn't get one. But I was surprised that both stores still had stock (more white ones than blue ones, but each had both).
  2. Wow...My wife was just commenting that she wished the cookies WERE available in December, as they would make great filler gifts for those impossible to buy for...but instead they sell them here in early January when everyone is feeling the pain of the Christmas shopping bills.

    I know, what difference would it make if you didn't have the money in December, why would you in January?

    Ours can be ordered in December, but we don't get them until February. When my daughter was in a different troop/council they didn't start until January. By that time, we got a lot of people who said, "Sorry. I already ordered from someone else." So I guess there are pros and cons either way.

  3. "Makes me wonder if they think mine are fakes too!"

     

    Exactly the reason I don't carry one either!!!

    I guess I don't really care what other people think that much. I don't carry Coach bags to impress others. I carry them because I really like them and the quality is exceptional. If other people think my purses are fake, well good! Hopefully nobody will try to take it. LOL

  5. as for the easy bake oven, buy a shrinky dink maker instead! that thing is fast, fun for everyone and such fun :) just my pull.

    :gdyeahthat:

    I bought one for dd when she was 5. She used it once and hated it. It took forever to cook under that lightbulb, and we both thought the end result tasted gross. So I gave it away and taught her how to bake stuff in the real oven. She is much happier and has gotten really good at it (she likes to make dinner every Saturday night). She loves and still uses her shrinky dink maker. I actually use it sometimes too.

  6. I'm not sure if you are interested, but I found the Funtainer beverage containers last week at Kohl's for $6.79. They had High School Musical and another kind. They were back in housewares on a clearance shelf. They were hidden pretty well, which is why I think there were quite a few left. That is the cheapest I have seen them.

    Thanks! I'll check it out while dd is at football practice this evening.

  7. The Southfield Rd. (MI) Target had whatever school supplies were left marked down only to 30%. Lunchboxes and some backpacks were at 50%. BTS 08 was mostly 30%, but there were a couple of items that were 50% and one or two at 75%. There was lots of pc software/games marked 50% off. Dollar Spot was 75% off blue dot, but pickings were slim. Lots of clearance in home and bath dept, but only 30% so far.

     

    I walked out with a couple of things:

    ###NDS Theme Park game - $4.98 (75%)

    ###NDS The Spiderwick Chronicles game - $7.48 (75%)

    ###PC Multiplication & Division software - $4.98 (50%)

    ###Magic Cut flexible cutting board - $2.99 (50%)

     

    I also picked up a Funtainer Beverage Bottle for $10.48, only 30% off but it was the last purple camoflauge one they had. I'm going to check the 7mi/Middlebelt store tomorrow to see if they have one cheaper. I also scored 8 - yep, 8- MM juices. That was the first time I was able to get that many at once.

  8. I can't stand when stores only staff a couple of cashiers on BF morning (The KMart on Telegraph @ 8 mile in Detroit is good for this...part of the reason I don't go there for doorbusters anymore). I also hate when stores don't open on time (very rare, but it HAS happened to me).

     

    I've taken my dd with me on BF, and I'm not sure what the complaints about that are. I've never had a problem, and she loves to go. I've never encountered the aggressive crowds that have been described. Then again, I tend to stay away from the malls. I wouldn't take my child if I thought it was dangerous. Now that she's older (10) she's actually able to help me out quite a bit, and I can get in and out of a store much quicker than if I was by myself.

     

    I've never been pregnant during BF, so I can't attest to that. However, last year my cashier @ Meijer was big pregnant - she said she was due in less than a week. She seemed to be handling it pretty well. She said it had been busy when they first opened, but the crowd had tapered off by 9am when I was there. So I guess it all depends on the pregnancy. When I was pregnant with dd, I had all the energy in the world and felt great. I probably wouldn't have had any problems. But if you're sickly or can't move around very well, it's probably not a good idea to be out there in the crowds, pregnant or not.

  9. I usually head out at about 3:30am, and I'm done by 10am. However, the people in my network who go to Best Buy (yep...we have a network) are sometimes not out of there yet, so I'll hang out and hit some extra stores until they get back. After we make the exchange and settle up monetarily (they get my Best Buy stuff, I get their TRU/Meijer/Target/etc...), I still manage to get home before noon.
  10. It was one of their "internet" coupons. I called 800 and the lady said the policy is, if they don't scan, then they can't accept them. I have no idea why they wouldn't scan. I did not copy them, very frustrating. However she is sending me some coupons in the mail for my trouble, cuz the guy was very rude! and she said thats unacceptable. I walked out without any of my purchases because of how he treated me! :gdparanoid:

    Try printing at the kiosk in the store. Mine uses blue-colored paper, and I DARE them not to take a coupon I just printed from their machine! :gdyelling:

  11. You can change your viewing preferences in your Control Panel features:

     

    control panel-edit options-thread display options-thread display modes-drop down menu-linear newest first

    Yep, that works just fine for the forum, but it didn't do anything for www.perimeterperusing.com, which is the website I would be accessing from my cell phone. And even if it did, going through the commands you just listed while using a cell phone would be difficult at best. Thanks for trying, though.

  12. FYI, we are going to start having new PP threads every quarter instead of every month. So JAN-MAR, APR-JUN, JUL-SEP, OCT-DEC. So we'll use this one for both August and September and then start a new thread October 1st for the 4th quarter.

     

    Please remember to use the standard format when posting your clearance finds so they are added to the summary list. Thanks.

    Hey Brad, is it possible to reverse the order on www.perimeterperusing.com so that the most recent deals show up first? The way it is now, the most recent deals are at the bottom of the page. I've found that having to scroll down endlessly to get to the bottom is very time consuming when you are on a cell phone in the middle of the store. And I can't imagine having to do it after a few months of deals. :eek: Thanks.
