  1. thanks - perfect gift - 1 for myself and 1 for my crazy shopper aunt! :)
  2. I just ordered 4 of those keychains as well. Amazon has reviews of them if you are interested. They got 4 stars overall and the people who liked them, loved them, but it did bother me that at least 3 people claimed they wouldn't work with Windows XP, which of course many of us have. So I am praying we won't get one of the bum ones, since the manufacturer's website clearly states they are compatible with XP. We shall see! Sears website is hosed up though - my order stated $51+ but then it said my cc was charged double that! I had to wait on hold for a half hour for a guy to tell me my cc hadn't even been charged yet but it "should be correct." so helpful...hmmmm... their account login also is malfunctioning (at least for me) so I can't even check my order online.
  3. I jus ordered a bunch of stuff and pleased with qulaity, but sizing is definitely smaller than Gymboree. I was disappointed because my daughter wears Gymboree size 6-12 months with room to spare but these 6-12 months were too small on her...so order up, at least for infant sizes..
  4. Boy is back in stock at Target.com right now!! http://www.target.com/dp/B000OVAGFO/ref=t_th_em_is
  5. I ordered a bunch of stuff a few weeks ago for my dd, age 8 months and the fabric is similar in quality to Gymboree, as is the styling, but I found that the sizing was NOT nearly the same as Gymboree. I got her 6-12 months which fit her with room to spare in Gymboree and these were all too small. So I'd buy from them again but definitely get a size larger than normal...
  6. I was just at Target B&M and it is scanning $26.99 there too.
  7. I just got my 9 photo stockings today and they are really nice! Nicer than pictured, I think. For some reason I thought they were going to caption them and they didn't, but I don't care, I think they turned out great, esp for the price. The cloth is really nice quality too. I just checked and they are still selling the yellow mitten design ones for the clearance price if anyone is interested...
  8. I'd love to know what you think of it if you put it together soon. I have to move some significant furniture around before I can assemble mine so it might be a while. :)
  9. My shelf arrived already!! Not bad for 97 cent shipping!
  10. I just ordered it - thank you!! I was looking for something like this for my daughter's extensive doll collection! :)
  11. I just ordered mine yesterday and yes, I tried and it does not work anymore with only $25 with in your basket, but does work for $40. I just added a cheap toothbrush to my $39.99Eyeclops and that did the trick, BUT I still had to add the code someone else here posted to get the $10 to take off during checkout thru paypal. It has been shipped already!
  12. just got it to work - needed that code someone else posted - thank you so much!!
  13. Those are pretty!! I have always been happy with stuff I've ordered from here. Thanks to you all, I now have a bunch of GREAT DEALS to stuff these stockings with!! :)
  14. Just got new code for personalcreations.com via e-mail: Shop today and receive 10% off your order of $60 or more. Use promo code "buynow" at checkout.
  15. I just bought a ton of these for my kids as well as for grandparents, aunts, etc. You really can't beat this price for a photo item. Use code CLIPPER to get an extra 25% off your order. If you add personalization they add about $3 extra to your entire order (not per item). I can't seem to get the exact url on here but go to the website and type in "photo stocking." I think they also have stockings for cat photos! enjoy! www.personalcreations.com
  16. Ditto on The Office Stuff I got: various different sets of pens, pencils and also notepads and small wipe off boards. Colleen
  17. Today Dollar Spot here in Ellicott City, MD has everything 50% off - asian inspired stuff, Halloween stuff, superheroes stuff, "The Office" stuff, gift bags, children's board books, lotions and more. Tons left. My favorite was the 3-packs of fall leaf magnet photo frames for 50 cents each. I spent almost $30 just in the dollar section today!
  18. Last night whole using my 10% off card for my monthly "Target run" I came upon another oops! by Target just like the MM juice one. In the vitamin aisle, they had 3 60-count kids' Target vitamins all shrink wrapped together with an ingredient insert which then scanned for the price that one bottle is normally - $3.50 or so. I was tempted but needed a different kind anyway so I passed. The weird thing was that there weren't even any other single 60-count bottles around that were the same color as these so maybe it was either a new or older item. I also overheard an employee on the phone loudly telling a customer that they absolutely would NEVER hold clearance items. It was a big non-stick cookware set (12 piece, I think) half off for $29.99. Sorry I didn't catch the brand but later saw it on an endcap. On the other hand, our Target IS great about coupons - i don't think they've ever questioned anything, not that I've tried any odd stuff. They just ask you when there is a buy this, get that free deal and trust you on whatever you say the price of the free thing is (last night I guessed and cheated myself $.50 - oh well!) Colleen
  19. I got that same msg, but it is also the exact same text they have on their home page so I think we are just getting it because it is their "newsletter" which they email to all account holders. I assume my order confirmation means they still had them in stock when I ordered. I didn't get a refund from paypal either so I assume it all went thru... Colleen
  20. I have to report that my sons, age 3 and 5, love all 3 types of Thomas trains/tracks WAY better than the Geotrax, which is now gathering dust in a box in my basement. But maybe the problem is that we have no room to set it up properly, whereas the Thomas stuff (esp the wooden sets) all fit onto the table we have...
  21. ooh - neat! this amazon one is the "Paz" from TLC version of the Target one I just posted - weird - it almost looks like a copyright violation! I have seen the one I posted in several catalogs, all for about $40 unfortunately, but maybe if you google it you can find it cheaper somewhere. Target's website says it is not available in stores. Too bad because I have it on my Amazon wish list for my son for Christmas too. He is absolutely obsessed with rockets of all kinds. He just turned 3. :) Colleen p.s. my kids received a Bazoongi brand circus tent (it is huge and well made) for their birthdays this year. My MIL paid $100 for it from a catalog, but I was just at Target and saw that they now carry it there for only $50 and they also sell a rocket ship tent by the same brand. It is silver, not yellow, but cool looking. :)
  22. This one looks adorable, but it is red: http://www.target.com/gp/detail.html/601-7775239-0015364?ASIN=B000NNBFRQ&AFID=Froogle&LNM=B000NNBFRQ|International_Playthings_LiftOff_Rocket&ci_src=14110944&ci_sku=B000NNBFRQ&ref=tgt_adv_XSG10001
  23. you can also always make ornaments from dough or playdough - we had lots of these when I was a kid (until one year a certain night visitor to our storage area ate them, that is!) What I do every year for my own kids as well as for the relatives is to get regular balls (or other inexpensive shapes), like someone else suggested, and then decorate them on the outside with glitter paints in those squeezable bottles. I have also enjoyed in the past buying those inexpensive photo ornaments in bulk from places like Oriental Trading, and then putting the kids pictures in them. That probably would cost $1 or less per ornament, not including the pics themselves... My boss at work makes photo ornaments a different way - by printing pictures onto fabric and then sewing the fabric into cute little shapes with ribbons to hang them...and finally - my favorite childhood ornaments of all... shrinkydinks!! :)
  24. wow guys - you are helping me a lot - thanks!! Colleen
