My grandmother is the hardest person to buy for. She has everything. My niece who is 1 is the easiest

All my kids presents that we buy are from santa.We never put presents from mom and dad. My parents did it the same way.

I have never had a problem with there not being any stock on BF. Normally the BF items on sale are not in the normal package that they sell it everyday. Last year when we got an xbox from target alot of people were just picking up the ones there had in the display case and they weren't ringing up at the sale price. We had to waituntil they brought out the ones that were in the special package to get the price and the only way we knew that was to ask cause they didn't bring them out when they opened. They kept them all in the back room.

She just wasn't interested in them. I figured she would love the little mermaid game cause she loved the movie but she just didn't want to play. I am going to try the leappad plus writing this year since she is starting to learn how to read and write in school. I am also thinking about getting her a gamecube. She loves to play on her brother's xbox and they just came out with the dora game for the GC so I am hoping that works. I know it isn't a game system but I do like the leappad. I am getting one for my niece too. She is almost 2.

We got the tv system last year for my daughter. She was 4. She played with it for 2 weeks and that was it. I just recently sold it on ebay. The tv one doesn't come with the adapter. We had to buy it separate.

are you talking about the v.smile?

My grandmother. She doesn't speak english and I don't speak spanish. Last year she got me a ceramic cow

I gave each of my kids the TRU big toy book and told them to circle what they wanted. My daughter circled all the girl toys and my son circled all the boy toys. Narrows it down for me lol.

If you think she will enjoy it and use it I would put it in.

I have never shopped in a WM on BF. I am not sure how they do things.

no we don't wrap stocking stuffers. Also I don't fill the stockings until they are in bed Christmas eve. The presents under the tree are wrapped though.

I am normally up before my kids but on those rare occasion when they wake up before me they run into the room and I get the whole santa came routine and that's the end of sleeping.

I guess it depends on which age group and gender. i know my daughter and her friends all want the dora kitchen and my son and his friends talk about the 360 all day every day.

I only have like 5 things already for Christmas. I get about half of my shopping done on BF. And it never fails I am out on Christmas eve buying that one last present for somebody I forgot about. I guess that is a tradition with me.

Most people put the shipping in the description. I always check the shipping price before i bid and if they don't have it I e-mail them and ask. I know when I sell on ebay if it is a big or unusual shaped package I charge more for shipping cause I have to buy packing supplies for it. I always try to ship the cheapest way possible unless asked for different from the buyer. Also if you can I would ask them to purchase insurance especially if it is an item that cost alot because alot of people say once they mail it and it is out of their hands it isn't their responsibilty anymore. I have found most people on ebay are willing to answer any questions you have so I would e-mail them but it is a must to check feedback before you bid.

I buy most of my games at gamestop or ebay too. It doesn't hurt to have know somebody that works at gamestop either cause they get it cheaper still.

My apartment is to small to have a room so I store all my presents in my moms house.

Thanks amystuff. I think I am going to buy that one cause she is learning how to write now.

I really like the dinner and a movie idea. I think I will do that this year.

Ok well since then we can't add anymore money to it I would buy paint to paint my bedroom. It hasn't been painted since I moved in which was 5 years ago and I am sick of the white walls.

I am wondering the same. I want to get one for my daughter but now sure which one to get and if the books work with them all. Can anyone help?

I would put the $100 towards my wedding dress. With having 2 kids there isn't to much money to go towards the wedding. It's a very tight budget but worth every penny to spend the rest of my life with my knight in shining armor. ( I know it's sappy but true )

I always shop with my sister and my mom.

I am looking for a gamecube for my daughter. My son has an xbox and never wants her to play. Since she is 5 I figured a gamecube would be good for her.

If it's a good deal I will buy more then one especially if it is toys. My kids are always being invited to bday parties and they are good to have for those surprise invites.
