Well, the clappers were a hit. Ours has the Christmas tree lights plugged into it right now. :)

no clue, i didn't get one

I PLAN on doing it in the next couple of days. I just hope it gets done before school starts back up.

Walmart carries them. They may not be on the website but I know that I've seen them in the stores recently. We bought my daughter one there 2 years ago.

me too

Thanks! I think I may try that. We are having breakfast at my grandparents on Saturday and this would be super easy. :)

That sounds really good. Care to share the recipe?

I live out in the boondocks so a 90 minute drive would be nothing for me. I'd do it.

Sorry Paula but that's just funny, lol.

me either

This year I'm doing chapstick, earrings for my girls, cards, hairbrushes, slinky, playdough, markers, tic tacs, sudoku books for my oldest, wrestlers for Hayden, coloring books, play makeup for Saydee, and just whatever else I find.

Jamie and I are going to finish up tonight. I really don't need much more but this will be the first time for us this holiday season to go shopping without the kids. There's only so much you can sneak into a buggy with 3 kids with you.

I think it's LCR. http://www.dicegames.com/l-c-r.html I don't know where to get it though. I'd never heard of it before. Sorry.

When I hear CLR I think of that cleaning stuff...calcium, lime, rust. http://www.hardwarestore.com/media/product/101851_front200.jpg

Oh, I'm sure it probably will be. If I had know that they still made them I might have bought one for my grandparents also instead of the birdfeeder I got them. Seriously, my dh is 31 and the funny thing is that he'll probably like it!

OMG! It is so great that they are replacing it for you. Talk about customer service! :)

I didn't either! I had to ask her to repeat herself several times when she was telling me. I kept saying, "The clapper, like 'Clap on, Clap off, *clap, clap, clap*, the Clapper'". I also made her swear not to tell any of them. I want to see their faces when they oped them.

I just checked on my rebate online and they don't have any record of it. I mailed in on 11/27. Have I mentioned that I hate MIR's?

The Clapper Yes, that's right boys and girls...The Clapper. My SIL went shopping with him today to help him pick out everyone's gifts and she said when she got in the car with him he mentioned something about getting all of the grandsons The Clapper. She said she tried to suggest other things but he had his mind set on it. So, they went to Walgreens and he spent over $130 on 6 Clappers. I am LMAO still as I'm typing this. I can't wait for Christmas now. This is going to be great.

I hate MIR's. I'll gladly pay a little more not to have to mess with them. I am currently waiting on a $50 MIR from Alltel on a cellphone that I bought.

Buck gets a stocking full of goodies on Christmas morning. He also eats really well on holidays. He gets the leftover ham/turkey platter. :)

I bookmarked the first site. When I have more than 5 minutes I may try it. My kids would love that. Thanks.

You would not believe how many places I have been to looking for an Etchasketch. A regular sized one, not the small one. I'd been looking for a month and told everyone I know to be on the lookout. My MIL FINALLY found one at Fred's. I had forgotten that Fred's even existed.

me too Dh's grandparents do this every year also. All of the girls get the same thing and all of the guys get the same thing. One year the guys all got these black leather wallets with the chain and the snappy thingy on the end (KWIM, like bikers wear?). I'm sure they were very nice wallets it's just that none of them even owns a bike and their not really into black leather, lol. It really didn't matter though because it was from the grandparents and they put alot of thought into it. They are probably thinking the same thing when you give them a gift, after all they probably have everything they want or need already. The grandparents are always hard for me to buy for. This year we got dh's and my grandparents all birdfeeders. They may think WTH? when they open it but I really did put alot of thought into it I just couldn't think of anything better.
