I always buy my Prismacolor stuff at Michael's with my 40% off coupon. If you sign up for their emails, they will send you one every week. :)

They are pretty true to size for me. I wear a 6 and a size 6 in crocs fit me fine. If you wear a half size, I'd go to the next size up though.

I am so sad that I missed this deal. I ended up buying something anyway, after I signed up and got the 15% off of my first order. Awesome deal for those that were able to catch it! :)

I got it on Sunday at TRU. They are running a sale, if you buy 1, you get 1 $20 off. Great deal if you are looking for another game. It will be a Christmas gift for my DH. We are getting a Wii as a family gift this year, and we were little when the original Nintendo came out, so I had to get it for him. :)

Mine usually show within 24 hours.

Oh thank you! I totally missed that!

I don't think they had an ad last year, but were handing out 20% off coupons as you entered the store.

Last year, I only had about $100 to spend on BF, and I was comfortable carrying around that amount in cash. This year, I have been saving, so I have more money in the budget and I am not comfortable carrying around alot of cash... I do have a debit card, but what happens if the computers go down, and I can't pay using my card? I have been thinking alot about it, and wondering how the majority of other BF shopping handle their money while shopping? What do you do?

JCPenney and Bealls (Florida) are both opening at 4am. Thanks for doing this... makes it easier to plan when everything is in one place :)

ToysRUs have their games Buy 1 and get $20 off a second one for games $39.99 and more. I picked up the preorder of Super Mario Wii today, along with another game and got $20 off, plus I spent more than $75 so I got a $10 giftcard back because there is a coupon on the front of the sales flyer this week :) TRU has been having some GREAT deals on games lately! I will keep an eye out for the Toy Story one cheaper because my boys have asked for that one too :)

Wow, thank you for these links. Now that I know what I am looking for, it will be easier. I will check out the BF ads and see if I can find one... now after seeing it, it looks like there is one in the TRU Big Toy book. I will check out my store tomorrow to see if they have any left! Thank you all so much! :)

Even after receiving the email above just last week, I asked again today at my store. The same 14 day policy applies for price adjusting, but the manager said they aren't sure what they are doing as far as price matching other stores. She sounded very certain that if I were to buy something within the 14 day time period, it would be adjusted on BF with no issues.

My husband mentioned that he would like to have a stand/tower for his XBOX. He said he saw it in a magazine, but can't remember which ones... Supposedly, it has a base that raises the console up, a spot in each side for the wireless controllers, and then above the console, there is a place for games. I found something similar on Amazon, but it's $100. Has anyone seen something similar for cheaper, preferably from somewhere that I don't have to order it and pay shipping. Thank you!!

I bought my husband a watch for Christmas at Kohls, and noticed that they sell Citizen there. I think they are having 25% off all watches right now. HTH.

I will agree Brad... I am not really impressed. There are maybe 1-2 things I could use, but other stores have them on sale for $1-2 more. It's worth it to me to be able to avoid TRU. LOL!

Yay! Once TRU is posted, I can plan my shopping strategy! Thanks Brad! :)

I will recommend the Lego games too. We have Lego Batman, Lego Indiana Jones and Lego Star Wars for both the Nintendo DS and XBOX and my boys,6 & 7, both love them. They are their most used games. I think the new Super Mario Wii would be great too. I have a pre-order in for it. I was about 8 years old when the original came out, and from the looks of the commercials, I think your DS would do just fine with it :)

For me, a pink netbook. I don't need one, just really want one. I could never spend like that on myself. :)

Ooooh, I didn't even think I'd be going there, but I think I might just have to :)

I am another one that won't pay more than retail, unless it's for shipping costs. :)

I love the fishbowl under the tree idea, but we have cats, and I know they'd go fishin' LOL! I do like the idea of a beta fish. He already has a small (now empty) 2 gallon tank in his room, so that's where the replacement would go... If I do that, I can just add him to the tank after DS goes to sleep and he'd never know. But I worry about transitioning him from the water he comes in to the water in our tank. Will it kill him? Our tank has a filter too. Do you think a beta will be ok in that kind of enviroment? I know they require very little room and upkeep, so will the bigger tank be too much for him?

So says my 6 year old. We recently had 2 fishy funerals, so my little Joshua decided that Santa would be the one to bring him his new Goldfish. Slightly paniced, I told him that it would be really hard for Santa to drive the sleigh and hold the goldfish at the same time. His response was "MOM, he's SANTA! He can definately do to things at once." LOL! And then followed it up with "Don't worry mom, I am sure he has a plan." I thought I would leave it alone for awhile, because I needed time to think of a comeback... This morning, as he was getting dressed, Joshua said, "So I wonder if Santa has a gameplan for my fish delivery yet?" Hmmmmm... So I know for sure that these little buggers would never survive outside of the tank for so long, beings that I would have to buy them early in the day on Christmas eve. That's all I would need to have him wake up Christmas morning to floating fish... LOL! So, I was thinking of getting him a giftcard for the pet store and writing a note to put in his stocking. That way he can pick them out himself, and I am off the hook. What do you all think? Anyone have another idea? I really love that he believes in the magic of Santa. It makes this time of year all the better!

I just looked those up on QVC and I am SO ordering them. My sons will love them too! Thanks for sharing! :)
