  1. I have about 4 of these in my classroom. The kids LOVE them! I paid around $20 for each of them so to me these are a good price.
  2. Our Zhu ZHu pet is probably dead!!! LOL! Hasn't been played with at ALL!
  3. Thanks to all of the hard working people on this website! Thanks to all of you, my family received way more than expected. My GottaDeal Addiction is a joke to many until days like today. Thanks Again and I will see all of you in the AM for the After-Christmas sales. (Yep, already have teacher gifts for next year from Bath and Body!)
  4. We did this last year. My son is still in awe...
  5. Love this idea...I am always looking for new traditions.
  6. Thanks..........Munchables was on the list!
  7. Okay so I am assuming these recipes are NOT Weight Watchers!!!!! I think I gained a pound just reading all of them......
  8. Strombolis are good. Roll out frozen pizza dough, fill it with whatever you wish. Plain cheese for the kiddos. Fold it over and bake at 350. When done, slice. Have pizza sauce for dipping. We do this now instead of pizza when kids come over....
  9. not in stock in any stores close to me ---pick up only
  10. What age would this appropriate for??
  11. I have tried everything, too. I am using a current version of Picasa. I would like to post Christmas tree pics but cannot find any info about URL. While I am at it, I can't get a Smiley to work,either........UGH!!!!
  12. We collect the animated plush characters they sell at Hallmark. You know the ones that dance or something. You better get to Hallmark!! This year is Snoopy and Woodstock. We picked it up last week.
  13. I really enjoy Bath and Body Works, especially the anti-bacterial line. (Think H1N1.....we are begging for the stuff!!!) Most expensive gift- $25.00 gift certificate to Outback Medium- Yankee candles I have gotten some very touching presents over the years. Homemade gifts, baked goods, flowers, etc. I teach middle school and many of the students tell me that they picked out the item themselves. What not to buy.......Instead of coffee mugs, maybe travel mugs instead. I drink coffee all day so I have gotten many. One year I received a basket of coffee flavored items that were not coffee. Like candy, a candle, etc. It was really cute!! Really we like ANYTHING!!!!!!!!! I like the idea of school supplies. We use Expo markers a lot. Those things are pricey when bought in bulk. Thanks for thinking of us!!!!
  14. Oh Yeah.....I am all for renting games. There have been many that have been eliminated from birthday and Christmas lists.
  15. It depends. I like Boom Blox. It's puzzle-like.

  17. Didn't want to risk passing up the chance to save on this one. Got 2. Thanks!
  18. Old Navy, Target and check garage sales and consignment stores. I remember selling every single piece I had at my garage sale to someone who just happened to be my size. They were all career pieces and summer stuff. I also wore stretchy pants from Walmart just in bigger sizes. I wore a lot of my husband's stuff on the weekends. Get creative with your mix and match pieces. Get basic colors and add jewelry and scarfs. Good Luck!!!!
  19. One of the best videos I have seen in a while!!!
