I took them and picked up another 8 pack 40 watt pack for the hall light. When I got home I had another gift card in the box it was in the bottom! That's 4- $5 cards I got the Diego and Pablo for gifts but I'm keeping the game codes though. I had a few other great coupon markdown combos also. My post is to long! Thank you everyone for the great info:gdhug1:

Today is a snow day here!! No school:cheesy: No work for me!! You know what that means!! Yep straight to target. I am going to hit the V-day 50% for party bag stuff for DNephews b-day. I am doing the favor bags. What's a little wind chill!

I am a Teaching Assistant in NY state. It is so good to see how many parents know that the "aide" in the room is more than just a warm body. We work just as hard as the primary teacher and go home with just as much worry and stress over the progress of your children. For those of you that claim you know what's going on in your child's class, you may want to pay them another visit. Teaching Assistants, Paraprofessionals,Teacher's Aides all do a lot for education. Thank you to all the people that realize we are an equal part of your child's day.

I have a Mail flyer that says children's place is opening early. They have some deals starting Wednesday including the rugby sweaters for $10.

I just ordered a valance $1.99 to get the wok set:) .Maybe it would make a nice gift paired with a cookbook.

If you go to www.youtube.com and punch in elmo tmx in the search box a ton of videos pop up. That thing is funny. I am going to buy 1 for myself as soon as I can get my hands on 1.

I am a Teacher's Assistant and we got out at 10:30 today. Most folks left around 11:00. My evening job is closed until Monday w/ pay. I love working with children. You get awesome vacations. (Plus paid snow days!)

The shake n go speedway is supposed to be the #1 toy this year for the 3-6 year old boys. Buy it if you see it now!!I thought this was more hype until I started to look for one! TRU had one set up in the front of the store in early Oct. I thought the kids shaking the cars were breaking them:g_doh: Well after reading all the magazine top toy lists the hunt was on. I went back to TRU,Target, Wally World (after ad w/bonus car) all were sold out. Almost wet my pants when I saw them in the TRU big book online last Saturday. Went and found 3 in the store. I bought 1 AND they had already started the sale. Plus the BOGO sale they were having was still on. 2 sales in 1:banana01: I used the 5 off 25 coupon, and even got the $10 GC. Thanks to all of the great heads up on sales I get here.

Last year was my 17 yr. old Daughters first BF after years of begging to go. She is hooked! She stood in the electronics line for all of the things she wanted (and got).My 10 yr. old cousin asked to go and I was hesitant about letting her come. She loved it and was talking about coming the following year. I gave her $25 to pick her own gift and she got a few toys of the pallets at walmart. She is so thin she crawled between some legs and put her stuff in the big garbage bag I gave her and crawled back out. It was fun.
