  1. Sorry, no advice I have lived in Ohio all my life in a little ol town that doesn't even have cabs! Just wanted to say I'm so jealous of you! I've wanted to visit New York my whole life!
  2. It's different here every year. I would say average 10 gifts from Santa, and about 5 from Mommy and Daddy.
  3. Last year, I had a "feel good" moment. Walmart had DS's on sale on BF (the mario limited edition ones), and my aunt was looking for 2 for her grandsons. Me and my mom went a little early to see if we could snatch any up and by time we got there they were gone. Called my aunt and she said she had someone else pick them up so she did indeed get them. My mother and I was standing in line and I decided to go back to toys again to grab another Hannah Montana doll that was $5 for a gift for my cousin, and lo and behold there was a mario nintendo DS sitting right there on top of the toys. I didn't need it, but I picked it up anyways because I just couldn't believe I seen it sitting there. I walked back to my mom in line and told her about it, and the lady behind me said," Ma'am, I overheard you and you said you weren't buying it. Did you have any use for it? I guess that was her main reason for shopping walmart last year and didn't get one. I handed it to her and she was the happiest person I'd seen all morning! She was on the phone calling her husband with joy and thanked me a million times!
  4. They did that last year except I believe it was on Saturday. I believe they called it their Secret Saturday Sale.
  5. I heard through a source that in December only if you purchase something at a store other than Walmart, and walmarts price goes lower for that item, you can return your item at that certain store, bring your receipt to Walmart and purchase it there for the lower price, and get a Walmart gift card for the price difference. Example: A doll at TRU: 29.99 the same doll at Walmart 19.99 Return the doll to TRU, get your money back, then go to Walmart and purchase the doll at the lower price, show the receipt of your TRU purchase and get the $10 back in a Walmart gift card. Sounds cool to me! I guess they are going to be advertising it at the end of November.
  6. Honestly? I just want to see that my kids have a good Christmas! I just got a job to be able to help out with Christmas this year as my husbands hours have been kind of low lately with the weather (he's a roofer). My kids have been super awesome though with asking for things, like instead of my dd handing me a super duper long list, all she is asking for is a snuggie, and a t.v. and dvd player for her room. I seen that portable dvd player at office max in the BF ad for $30, and that would be perfect! But seriously, I don't want nothing. Nothing at all :)
  7. Anything I've ever ordered from buy.com has taken about a week to get here for me. I don't think thats too long....
  8. I received mine in the mail, so I don't know for sure. Maybe they will have them in the stores?
  9. I recieved it yesturday, and the kids are going nuts circling things today in it. Now, to find the best deals on the toys they want :)
  10. Thanks!! I just picked one up for my husband for Christmas! 18.50 shipped! Woohoo!
  11. Thank you! I wanted to place an order with them sometime soon anyways :)
  12. Shipping is comming up as $5.99 for one $6.99 for two and $7.99 for three.
  13. Is this a fun game? My MIL informed us today that she's getting my 5 year old and my 9 year old DS lites for Christmas, so I thought I might stock up on some games... Can all DS games fit into all the different DS's?
  14. Yes it's because their lease is up on Feb. 1st, and they just decided that the store wasn't doing enough good to lease it another year.
  15. It was in the newspaper today that our only local Kmart is closing on Jan. 1st Boo hoo!
  16. I received my Zyrtec Bzz kit yesturday and we are about 1/2 way through the box already! My kids' allergies are acting up this week, so we switched from the bottle of Zyrtec to these yesturday and the kids love them! I'm gonna have to use those coupons to get more.
  17. I don't like guns period. My Daughters uncle was killed by a gun by her own father because they were all drinking and recklessly playing with a gun. I won't allow one in the house and if my children want a gun when they are older so be it, but never one in my house whether a toy or not. Even though they are toys, I don't want my children to incorporate the word "toy" with the word "gun" at all.
  18. How do you get the free shipping? Shipping came to $2.95 for me
  19. So, he came home from school today and I showed him the link and asked him if it was it, and he put a cheesy smile on his face and then wiped it off right away and said, "whats it matter mom, you won't let us have any toy guns so why you keep bugging me about it?" Yeah, I won't let them have ANY toy guns AT ALL (not even nerf guns), so thats the reason he wouldn't ever tell me! He figured Santa would bring it to him and I wouldn't find out until after he opened it Christmas morning! Oh well, least I can let it go now... Thanks MingMingDucklin!
  20. That is cute! I'm sure this will sell out fast, too bad you can't place things like this on hold till payday
  21. I usually put in a couple favorite candies of each child, a toothbrush with their favorite character, favorite toothpaste, hairbows for my DD, usually some sort of crayola book and markers, and smaller toys for the boys. This year however, it looks like we are going to have to skip filling the stockings and concentrate on the gifts. Not alot of money to work with this year so I want to make sure what money we do have to spend on the kids' Christmas goes a long way. Going to try to skip the little not necessarily needed things (like the stocking things) and get them each a couple large gifts and thats about it.
  22. I bought them for my kids one year (at the time I only had 3 kids, now 4) but we walked in and each child had a coupon for a free cone. Since we were all together, they wouldn't let us use 3 coupons for 3 kids. Not even rung up seperately. So, we got one free one and had to pay for the other 2, so I don't buy those coupon books anymore. They are a ripoff if you have more than one child IMO.
  23. Sounds like it's bothering you guys just as much as it was me for awhile! LOL I eventually calmed down with it, but it still lingers in the back of my head and I think about it once every so often!
