  2. Remember to see if your school district has a spending limit like MidwestMama mentioned. In my area teachers and coaches can now only receive gifts that are less than $20 or $25.00 some teachers and coaches were receiving $100 coffee shop cards, open ended plane tickets and weekends in Aspen and Vail. Other parents complained and the school board intervened.
  3. I use Turkey stock when I cook our turkey, we baste frequently and our turkey is always moist and yummy with tons of gravy!!!

     

    I use Glace De Volaille Gold Classic Roasted Turkey Stock $5.95. I buy it at a local spice shop and sometimes Whole Foods.

  7. ok here are two suggestions.... last year my brother and I went in on the "12 days of christmas" for our parents. We spent about 300.00 total. Some things were little and others were bigger. We picked some things for our dad and some things for our mom so it was even. 12-bottle of beer, 10 lottery tickets, We bought picture drink coasters for the 8th day. There were 4 in each box so bought 2. Put pictures of the grandkids in them. 8 drink coasters, Made up some coupons for help around the house... 6 hours of help. for the 1st day we gave them each 50.00 in chips from the casino. They really enjoyed that. We sang the song as we showered them with the gifts. This year we are doing a "restaurant of the month club". We are going to their favorite restaurants and getting them gift certificates, then we are going to have a calendar made with pictures of the grandkids and attach one gift card on each month. We will probably make up some story about how they have won this "fabulous dining experience to their local establishments"... They have everything they could ever need so we just try to go the more creative route. Its fun to do for them and they REALLY enjoy it. Good luck!

     

    Very cool idea! I bet it is fun coming up with all the great ideas!

  8. I hope she isn't too old for it. I bought it for my three nieces. One will turn 7 in January, one is 4 and one 2 1/2. I was just going to give it to all three of them. The age on the box says 5 and up. I think, the younger ones will like it. But my oldest niece (7) will probably be the one that can actually get it to do what it is supposed to. I paid $135.75 including tax at Kohls when they had the 30% off and free shipping. hth

    Great idea as a sibling gift!

     

    I don't think 7,8,9,10, or even 11 is too old. If I didn't have my pup I would soo have to have Biscuit for myself!!!:D

  9. Is there a Coldwater creek discount out there? I just received a 20 gift card that expires wed. and I was hoping to find a free shipping or something else to go with it.

    Hi, $30 off of $100 and/ or Free Shipping. Use code WXH6201 No Minimum on Free Shipping. Ends Sunday! 11/23

     

    If your order doesn't total $100 it will still give you free shipping with the code.

  10. My husband suggested a drum set. My Mom mentioned the Fisher Price push along Popper. I looked it up on Fisher Price.com and found the

    It’s our classic Corn Popper push toy, with a new twist! This one helps little ones learn numbers and counting skills. Push it along for sounds and lights, as the colorful balls “pop” inside the plastic dome. Requires 3 “AA” alkaline batteries
