Yep they get the Thanksgiving ads also so stay tuned!

They do it on toys also. Go around the back side of the store on the ends of aisles and that is usually where all of the great mark downs are. But check up each aisle also in the toy section they sometimes still have the mark downs there also. I get tons of toys dirt cheap at Target. I was just wrapping the ones I got today. I got my son a huge Power Ranger motercycle with the action figure it was normal 19.99 marked down to 4.95. So check out the ends of aisles but check up the aisle also and it is mostly hit or miss when you get a good deal.

last year I went to Micheals after Halloween and made a haul! They had 90% off of Halloween and fall stuff and I got some beautiful decorations for next to nothing.

I have gotten the JCP snow globes before and Sears handed out cute blinking Rudolph noses and ornaments one year. My mom and I got about 6 of those between us that year (they just keep giving them to us!) I have also gotten the clock, glasses, radio and radio head phones at Big Lots. I hit them just to get the gift. But last year Sears was the best. I was first in line so I got my card. I met up with my mom later at a checkout and she says "look" and holds up two cards! They stuck together when the lady gave it to her. So we got our stuff almost free!

No I don't think they would except it. They only except manufactor coupons not other stores coupons.

Be aware that not every manager knows what they are talking about or will tell you the truth. I asked my Walmart manager year before last if they would be closing Thanksgiving night and they said absoultly not. Boy was I surprised when I arrived at WM and there was a long line and the doors where locked! So keep calling them they may change there minds!

Last year at Sears the front door would not open. We where all standing there while they opened the side doors and people come steaming in. I thought that door was going to be ripped off. But they finally got it up and I got everything I needed.

Depends on where I'm going but this year I have a hunch it's going to be Wlamart and since they open an hour early this year I will probably be in line by 3 Which means I have to be up by 2 and out the door by 2:30 at the latest. Out Super center is 22 minutes away.

My body and my ads! That is all I need. Of course I wear the winter gear because it's usually freezing.

My mom and I where first at Sears last year. We lined up at 4 for a 6 open.

Last year on BF CVS had batteries for 1.99. I think you got 16 in the box and they had AA and AAA. I just ran out of the ones I bought. Hopefully they will have them again because they where really good batteries.

Yep I lock everything in the trunk and lock the trunk pop switch in the front of the car also. Hopefully the stuff I need this year will go in the trunk!

I had one the other night also I dreamed I was just getting started at 7AM! And then when I got in line to pay for something I remembered that my Christmas Club check had not been deposited yet and that I only had like 100 dollars to my name to shop with! What a nightmare!

I love them all equally! Can't wait for some more this WM one has me drooling and chomping at the bit!

How about a GC to the local mall then she can go to any store she wants. Or there is also a site called http://www.giftcertificates.com/ They have GC's to just about every where that she can pick from.

I don't think that it's wrong to regift as long and the person you got the gift from originally has no idea you did it.

I have never really had any problems with items I want selling out.

Dad can take care of him if he is sick. Now in the hospital that would be a different thing. The only other thing that would stop my BF shopping is heavy snow or black ice

I always hit Kmart and Big Lots on Thanksgiving. They have some good deals

I live in NY so I'm have drivin in snow on BF before. Last year it was snowing but not sticking to the roads. That is usually how it is. One year it was 70 degrees and we wore shorts to BF. Wish that would happen again!

I Ebay all year round I have been looking on Ebay for a few things for Christmas.

I have a Radio Shack gift card from Club mom and I will have a Gift card from my DH's work for being safe for 90 days.

Most of them will go on clearance after Halloween. But Rite aid has the fall stuff on clearance now for 50% off and so does CVS. I hit Micheals last year after Halloween and made a haul. I got the cutest Scarcrows for 1.00 they are like dolls with the weigh's in the butt. Very cute. I also got alot of Halloween stuff cheap.

I do and I keep haunting the stores for a few weeks after Christmas for the major markdown's. Last year I hit CVS when they marked everything 90% off and I made a haul in wrapping paper. I have enough paper for at least two years. I also got tags, boxes and bags dirt cheap. Pays to keep going back every few days.

I say excuse me nicely then if they don't move I say it louder and if that still dosen't work i plow through them!
