I love the washer necklace idea. It seems quick and cheap to get some otherwise complicated gifts out of the way and very much personalized.

Best Buy continues to be on my s@$! list after there debacle today. I only step foot in there when I think it's worth my while knowing the lack of service I will get. I sincerely hope ANYONE else has a decent spec laptop on sale this BF.

I'd definitely follow Pam on this one. The one that opened near me had lots of action figures(not sure which) and stuff some art sets and not much else. Maybe all express aren't as small as this one but it's definitely not worth a 2 hour drive to maybe have something.

Did TRU offer BF items at sale price online last year? I realize they're shipping is outrageous at times but I've never had to be at TRU for anything on BF and would like to avoid that if possible.

I second the need for bags. hopefully they'll be up for grabs next. I really like the grey shirt but I have always been partial to grey/black.

Does the misuse of the term "black" anything for barely there sales make anyone else worried about what may come on the real BF?

They opened one here a while ago and it was small with not a lot. They had a sale going on as they had recently opened but nothing FAB. I considered a dump truck or tractor for 4.99 but forgot to ask BF if she thought it'd be ok and never went back.

Can anyone let me know if they see pepper mill on clearance so I can stalk them for my mom?

I didn't see much at all but i don't really need anything. Shoes are an afterthought since some people rave about them. For the price of a regular sneaker couldn't hurt to get a pair.

the toning shows seem like a good deal. Especially as regular price up to 119.99.

Wow! I think if I even mentioned a customer wasting my time I'd get it in the ear from management and be told(not so nicely) to get a new job.While I understand their choice of email vs calls that was a very harsh way of putting it and more offensive than explanatory.

it'll probably be ok at night/early am for sitting outside but will be too hot with all the running around etc.

I got mine yesterday with goodies too. My mother seemed kind of jealous when she asked "Where did you get that?". May need to order her one if there's another sale but they are kind of thick for miami weather. I bet it makes a great extra layer for those of you in the colder climate.

We try to put up Thanksgiving weekend and usually don't take down til 3 Kings Day but also depends on tree etc. This year I I'm contemplating whether to put up or not with Bella. She came to us New Years Day 2009 and has never experienced an Xmas tree. Last year we didn't put anything up since we had my older brothers office furniture where tree would normally go. I'm sentimental about all the old less breakable (wooden/stuffed/plastic) stuff and don't want her knocking my glass disney ornaments off the tree either. As soon as tree goes up lights go on same night.

On our disney trip my BFF and husband saw the singamajigs and bought two (one for 3 year old girl and one for my 10 month old godson). I decided against it previously thinking they'd be realy annoying but they found them hilarious at midnight in the Walgreens across from hotel.

With reference to previous post about lowering value, it also gets rid of free shipping since reduces cost of purchase:(

My heart goes out to you. My grandma died in October years ago and we spent a few years without Celebrating. It was tough since she was the one person we all confided in. I bought my mother this ornament a year or so later and to this day it makes us that much happier when we find it. Our tree is not complete without it.I'm sure ours came from a mailing catalogue but this is the closest I could find. It will be that much more tough with the children, maybe plan a rememberance day with either your husbands favorite foods or maybe order a meal from "honey baked ham" type of place. http://a1128.g.akamai.net/7/1128/497/0001/image.proflowers.com/is/image/ProvideCommerce/P0098616b?nanos=770&qlt=75,0&resMode=sharp&op_usm=0.5,1.0,0.0,0&wid=275&hei=275

I just don't understand what some of these ppl hope to accomplish (i.e. the Urban Outfitters one) where people just kept coming into store. A)What is worth it at Urban Outfitters and What can you hope for being anyone past the 1st 100 or so. Clothes is always an afterthought for me on BF, I can understand Walmart, Target, BB and ToyRUS where they're expected to bulk buy certain items(tv's, dvd's, blurays etc) and its all boxed up etc but fighting over clothes?! Having to find a size is almost like browsing to me and on BF that's a big NO-NO. Get in, grab your stuff and go.

wow. in slow motion I picked up a lot more. At first I though the guy was just a d!@# pushing people but in context he was probably trying to avoid further injury to her.

how will i get home with all these fab gifts and treats i can't see the road

our store had some yarn sweater wraps w/belt for $10 last week with the 50% off and other wool coaty type ones w/o belt for the same so this seems silly to me compared

Ditto. It was last year, but I have no clue if they fared well or not. Seems a waste $16 compared to $7 but I'm sure they're at least slightly better quality.

amazon, buy.com, jrelectronics and there's one more I buy dvd/blurays from kinda regularly. I'd say for recent seasons you'll probably see BF sales. BestBuy had some tv sets on sale last week not sure if sale is still on could try store pickup and save shipping.

Thanks, I'll check the store tommorrow morning. I'm sure they'dagree its better to spend a little more and get a quality item. Instead of having to replace every 3-6 months.

I am the dedicated espresso maker for our office and we've had terrible luck with the Mr Coffee Brand with two machines dying on us within the last year. My coworkers insist we need a replacement to feed their habit. One machine was business purchased and the original was a colleague's. I am looking for a simple maker with decent reviews nothing fancy needed I just don't want to spend 20-30$ and have the thing explode and die on us. Both that died started by making a huge mess and eventually the knob on the side of machine popped out rendering machine useless. I have $40 Kohls cash but everything online seems outrageously priced.
