  1. I miss the JCPenney snowglobes Ad-wise missing the Micheals B1G2Free deals, they only have a couple this year (which I'm not interested in) missing Walgreens, Macys and Hoe Depot ads from my usual suspects. Hopefully Walgreens will still have their early B1G2free toys since didn't see much interesting elsewhere.
  2. SC trying to (and seemingly successful) one up Richard Branson Damn...seems like everyone's been through the ringer lately. We need to seriously get Dev to work on a GD get together mid next year to let everyone get their lives sorted before then. Thank you SC for starting the charts, Riven for pinning and every single one of the helpers for all their hard work.
  3. Yay..I zipped through the local ads minus Walmart this morning. Nothing awe too inspiring and yet I have a ridiculously long list.
  4. Found this comparison online: http://cameradecision.com/compare/Canon-EOS-Rebel-T6-vs-Nikon-D3400 I'm usually a Canon girl have to say my last purchase has really disappointed. I don't see in original post if daughter requested a DSLR. I prefer them to the smaller cameras because with my arthritis it's easier for me to manually rotate lens and hold onto bigger case. Many people prefer the power of a smaller camera and not having to lug the extra lens around. Usually the online camera stores have similar or better sales than brick and mortar stores. I think my camera came from Adorama or B&H photo, not 100% sure which. Also, keep in mind that depending where she's going DSLR camera may not be allowed because many places consider anything with detachable lens "professional". I've had to rent/borrow smaller cameras for concerts several times this year and it's for that reason I'm looking for a smaller programmable camera this year. I love my DSLR but the last concert pics I took with borrowed camera were so bad I could cry.
  5. cool. I didn't look very hard but we usually had the charts as a sticky and I had to look pretty hard to find this today. It's been a heck of a day though so maybe user error.
  6. I have always gotten it off. This year I got the morning off so still have to work 1-5. Realistically with shopping starting Thursday should be done before then. Think we were always done around then anyhow
  7. stationchief are you doing these on your own this year? been MIA a bit but dont see many blurays listed. is that because ads or missing or you need help?
  8. We've got a good bunch of apples in the GD community I think you should take them both out and just gauge the crowds before going into the melee. Having been there, there's nothing worse than being molly coddled and stopped from living because you're not 100%. Maybe send the sister into more crowded/crazy spaces to avoid any possible issues. I STILL haven't looked at ads but there's nothing worth risking your/families life or safety over. Service dogs are amazing creatures. It would be awesome if there were more funding for them as they could alleviate so much from so many.
  9. Waiting for news on disney store. Don't know wether to get ornaments now or Wait.thought they went cheaper in Bf
  10. amazon used to be my go to for dvd and blurays...last year was disappointing though. Maybe look at toys for the younger kids,
  11. some of the pcs look decent. Are these offers usually available online? Are there any requirements to using the small business site?
  12. I've been busy/MIA for a bit and expected to have lots of ads to save by now. At least I'm not totally behind
  13. We still go out but I agree it's not as thrilling as it once was. Sales are not as great and we do pretty well with year round sales and clearance. It doesn't help that I've been so hectic around Bf the last few years either, no time to plan as in depth as we used to
  14. Ditto. Perfectly put Dev, sort yourself and your family first and we'll be waiting for your return. We can manage, it's just not quite the same.
  15. Hoping for free or close to free upgrades for at&t. all lines are eligible for upgrade but don't feel like paying through the teeth for it
  16. All too well...friendly reminder: call credit card/bank before BF to avoid stops being placed on card and ridiculoua security questions
  17. Probably looking for a new 32" decent brand tv this year. Hoping to get done on turkey day or online since it's highly unlikely I'll get bf off this year.
  18. THANK YOU! I was surprised to find mine on the doorstep as I stopped in after a morning at the hospital to feed dogs before rushing to work. I opened as soon as I got home and brightened up what I didn't expect to be a good night. I think I'm going to let my mom have the shirt and my dad the hoodie. The stress relievers will come in handy at work, nothing like providing toys to goofballs to brighten my shift.
  19. I got a couple calendars, a few wall signs and 2 journals but didn't see anything else. I got the valentine sticker boxes (Nina turtles, avengers, star wars) and face mask cards(Nina turtles and avengers) thinking of birthday treat bags. I think walgreens had avengers pencil+card packs. And an insulated star wars cup from Zak very awesome for .30 also got a hello kitty beanie for the same i think.
  20. Valentine's seems to have gone to 90/70 on Saturday. I was able to pick up some cards with pencils or erasers, boxes of stickers for kids bday treat bags, Some foam craft things.a men's sriracha pj, some girls tops Olaf and pink minnie tees, men's tees grey "you stole a pizza my heart", red "do you have a bae or no" and pink "I'm a stud muffin looking for my cupcake", some cupcake liners and a pack of cookie cutters
  21. I found some c9 sports bras at 3.88 today and managed to get some Christmas which they sold to me at 90% off at last store. Other stores wanted to give me 70 off clothes i found. I got Seinfeld and Christmas Story boxers, some juniors sweaters, 2 archer farm keurig packs, 3 archer farms ground coffee, some small cake baking trays, several gift bags, 2 cookie mixes, a handful of dog toys and 2 rawhide canes. The lady who approved it said that all should have been cleared Thursday...
  22. I NEED to thank JesusLuvU for ALL the amazing gifts...We didn't get back home til after 8pm when we then had to wait for my brother to get off his phone to open family gifts so I decided to open a few work gifts and my SS gift. I started with all the little packets and then was very amused when I get to envelope last and it clearly states open last, I was very glad I had NOT torn into it first Pics will follow but I did not want to seem ungreatful because I'm anything BUT. Each of these seemed pretty much perfectly selected for us, dog treats for Trina, toys for Bella, my favorite chocolates, hot cocoa to destress at work, candles to brighten up the house, socks for me to lounge around the house in, socks to wear with with my Christmas outfits for the rest of my visits this weekend and the photography course to top it all off. Who knows, maybe better technique/knowledge combined with my love of animals and patience in watching them could turn into a new much loved career.... I was a little overwhelmed while opening the gifts and the groupon in the Christmas card brought tears to my eyes....Thank you a million times over! We received: The awesome gift box 2 Dog treats (a raw hide and a filled one(peanut butter, I think))- confiscated for Trina 2 Dog squeak toys (blue reindeer and a red light bulb)- confiscated for Bella 2 starbucks drinks (marshmallow hot cocoa and peppermint hot cocoa) 2 DairyMilk Caramello King or Family bars....one of my ALL TIME favorite chocolates 2 delicious candles (sugared pecan and apple cider) 1 pair of Christmas Yorkie socks 1 pair of fuzzy cozy socks (blue with snowman) 1 beautiful Christmas Card (w/ Portuguese on the front-we just emailed our family there or Christmas wishes) 1 Groupon for a photography course- I always wanted to do one but wasn't quite ready when I took as a teen OK, we've got box before open, open with gifts, Bella sulking because I told her to stay away as I opened (she's a little thief), gifts before envelope, gifts with envelope then Trina with rawhide and Bella with Toy.
  23. Personally, i would if there was something worthwhile on sale. Realistically, i can't. The day is full of so many places to be and people to see that there's barely a minute to spare.
  24. Lol. As a scheduler this totally ruined my coworkers request for day off to go shopping nice try buddy, you waited til last minute, know theres no availability and choose not to do during the weekend. .. you can go in the wee hours of the night/morning
