  1. Funny thing, I couldn't use the new6437 code either. But I ordered a jacket anyway. Ds outgrew his winter coat this fall and I didn't replace it since he never wore it (he's a teen and only wears hoodies). But then we get 10 inches, then 8 inches of snow. So I'm hoping if I get him a new winter coat, he won't need and we won't get anymore snow.:smart:

    I thought it was only MY son. I swear his teachers must think I didn't buy him a coat!

     

    ETA I also got my little son's coat, and he loves it. :D Thanks OP!

  2. Family friendly would be good, since it is a family party. :) My FIL is turning 60, and we are having a party for him. Making the baskets for raffles, and any money raised will be his gift. :) We are also doing a 50/50 raffle for the DJ. Thanks for all the great ideas. I will be on the basket hunt starting tomorrow, and I may finally clip the AC Moore/Michael's/Joann's coupons this Sunday to buy some baskets! :D
  3. I need to make some baskets of goodies for raffle prizes. I'm not sure what kind of things I should put in them, and want to make it not too expensive. I thought of you guys right away. lol

     

    The people who will be there are mostly adults. Not looking to spend more than $40 per basket and looking to make about 5 of them. I need to have them finished by the middle of March.

     

    Thanks for any ideas! :D

  4. We went to the local town hall Human Services department and adopted a family. It was so much fun shopping for them, and imagining their faces on xmas morning. :) I even found really cute felt bags that said Express Delivery from the North Pole on them. I hope that family has a really Merry Christmas! :)
  5. I sent my FIL shopping with my DS5 to pick out gifts for us and his brother. I don't know what we got yet, but his brother is getting Lucky Charms wrapped up because he says he loves them. :) So cute at this age. I'm sure everyone will laugh when that gift gets unwrapped!
  6. Make sure to do your research. Price both your vehicle if you are trading, and the one you wish to purchase at Edmunds.com, etc. Make sure you know the value. Bring the print outs with you. Negotiate everything separatly, and DO NOT tell them what you want to pay. Don't allow them to know you LOVE the pacifica, as if they know you love it, they know they have you. Finally, don't buy the junk they try to add on, ie warranty, tire coverage, etc, as it is a rip off, and you can purchase those things if you want them for much less money on the internet, even the warranty, from a reputable dealer, if you research it. And finally, be prepared to walk away. It speaks VOLUMES to the salesman when your feet head to the door. :) Also, if you are trading the Cavalier, do you have a CarMax near you? I got about 2k more than the dealer was offering for the car I was going to trade from CarMax.

     

    Good Luck and enjoy your new roomier ride. :)
