Bump! Or maybe this has been posted for 2017 somewhere else? Panera- buy $50/get $10 to use in January.

Thank you! This is what I came to ask!

Yep! That's why! She wants a full size one! And I'm happy to get it!--All my ornaments have been relegated to the back of the tree! I love it when kids ask for things like guitar picks! lol! Easy! Inexpensive! Kids have no idea the possibilities!

Hi! Wondering...just for fun...what are some of your DD's or DS's most unusual Santa list requests? My dd9 has office supplies and a Xmas tree on her list.

So...where would you look for a tree if it's after BF?

Guessing by predecorated, poster means pre-lit. I'd love to know where to get a pre-lit tree too! Bump!

I feel your pain-- I'm buying for a 10 and 12 year old I don't know. But, I do know not all girls are girly. I'd 2nd the m3p/ personal cd player posts. Experiment kits and spy gear. Sports equipment-- rollerblades Books- Serafina and the Black Cloak is worth checking out. Diaries and art supplies. I think I'm going to split my $ for each into 3 parts: gc to someplace like Target, a science/art/craft kit, and a book of games or board game. One of those has got to be a winner!?

Barnes and Noble gcs. They have a deal-- buy $50 in gcs, get a $10 gc. I use the $10 as a stocking stuffer for DD cause it has time restrictions.

I totally agree! I have a little bin for DD and DH and I slowly fill them all year. When they're full, I know the stocking will be too....though, that doesn't always stop me! Stockings are the best part!

My niece has Sims 4 on her list. I have no idea what this means but it's on my radar in case I bump into it!

My mom always put an orange in the toe of our stocking and a comic book. We had to peel and eat the orange and read the comic (and trade comics with each other) before we were allowed to wake her up! That tradition continues. There is always underware in the stocking. DD thinks it's hysterical. What is Santa thinking!? Like many of you, I stalk stocking stuffers all year long and stash them in a special container: Hair doodads, a book or magazine, a boo baby, gardening things (for DH). hand/foot warmers. Balsa wood airplanes. Gel pens. Eos lip eggs. gc for starbucks, barnes and noble, and target (usually the ones i've earned during the year or online deal ones). A video (that i cash Disney points in for). Rubics cube or small game (Spot It, travel sizes.) DD loves office supplies. Lego people. I love stockings. I don't even mind doing my own! (Though, DH and DD each always put one thing in it.) I also love The Great November Purge. Which I impose on my family to make room for the Xmas (and birthday) stuff that will come. Getting rid of things you no longer LOVE is almost as nice as getting something you're looking forward to.

Star Wars Legos.

I'm sure I'm not the only one with a Christmas eye out for Legos. Especially Star Wars Legos. Can we start a thread for any sales? I know a super duper deal may be a long-shot, but I'm hopeful. :)rachel
