    I have the startings of gift baskets, hoping to pick up stuff to put in them on BF

  2. i am looking for bikes for my kids this year too, last year kmart had 20" bikes for around $20.00 on thanksgiving day (you have to buy the kit and put the training wheels on yourself), and in years past walmart had bikes but I don't recall seeing them last year.
  3. I know for many years my cousin would come over and stay with my kids (she was like in 6th grade), they would be asleep most of the time and we always made sure to get back by 8 or 9 when they were getting up, we didn't get to spend alot of time out but at least we got the toys we needed for them and then sometimes we would go back out with them
  4. it really depends on the kid, if yours is not the fussy type ie......mommy i'm cold, mommy i'm tired, can we go home now.........the whole time that you are in line making you and everyone around you misserable, then go for it, if not then beg, borrow or steal a babysitter even if it is a middle school girl or something.......
  5. zoe goes through the big toy book and circles the things she wants, sends a letter to santa with her "order" (that's what she has called it for 2 years now) so we get her some things off her list...this year she is getting chitty chitty bang bang tickets though..she doesn't even know it is coming!! it is her favorite movie and it is part of our local broadway series..so she will probably get a fancy dress to go with them.

    sorry to get off topic, but everytime I see your name I think about saying something.....I am Zoie Maire's mama too..........thought that was a coincidence since this is the first time I have seen someone else named exactly that (other than spelling of course) ;)

  6. I contacted three local newspapers via email:

    The Times Leader [email protected]

    Kentucky New Era [email protected]

    Paducah Sun [email protected]

     

    Here is what I said:

    While it is still early the hottest black Friday site on the web is open for business and the discussions are already going strong. Consumers can visit

    http://blackfriday.gottadeal.com to track the early ad releasees and discuss shopping strategies with other Black Friday enthusiasts. There is also an area on this site that posts early predictions for this years ads which can be accessed at http://blackfriday.gottadeal.com/BlackFridayPredictions. With the current strain on the economy this Black Friday is expected to be bigger than ever. If you would like to contact the site moderators for a story you can reach them through the following link: http://blackfriday.gottadeal.com/MediaRoom. Also the site is open year round for frugal consumers to visit at http://www.gottadeal.com

  7. my kids make keychains/ornaments. Get some beads (dollar store/craft store/walmart) string them together w/ a keychain... can hang on a tree or be used for keys... easy, not messy...

    this would be a cute idea for something to put in the box thanx! Everyone can feel free to disscuss homemade gift ideas in general in this thread, not just ideas for me, sorry did not make that clear in the begining.
