I've ordered from them a bunch of times and all was ok. :)

You need to email them now. They will send back an email saying they can't PA until after it ships. They will put a reminder on them to come back to it in X number of days. The rep just told me all how they do it, lol. I called tonight and the person who responded to me must have been on midnight shift because it was tagged to take care of at midnight tonight. He did it for me now and left her a note that it was done. :) He could see my email from the other day when the item was $5.20 and he gave it to me for that price even though it's $6.50 now. I paid $7.79, so he refunded me $2.59. :)

When I called tonight, the guy could see my email from the other day. He said they save all of the emails. I didn't know that!

I REALLY want Costco to get this in stock! It makes me so nervous to buy something expensive and breakable like this with 4 kids in my house. I love Costco's return policy!! I haven't had to return anything there except a laptop that was broken out of the box, but I love the peace of mind.

I got some at BJ's last week and they had an extra $1 off coupon in the little handout they give you by the door. I also often buy batteries at Costco. I think I usually pay about $9.99 for 48 AA.

I'll be in Milford in about 2 hours, but I have no idea where to get a snow globe. I just asked my hubby and he said, "Yeah, any rest stop with a store in it." Postinoloco is right on, lol. That one at Exit 40 is attached to a Wendy's.

I got mine deposited from B&N on 12/6. :)

I got 6 of these for myself and a turtleneck that I needed for dd 6 months. Thanks!

Me too!

In for 2 of the jumping sacks. I can use those for Cub Scout events. They look like fun! :)

I tend to tip 20% at restaurants if the service is reasonable. If I have a very small check (under $10), tip could be anywhere from 25-50%. I eat breakfast out with the girls at least once a week and I got our regular waitress a super soft stuffed moose (she loves them) and I'll probably leave an extra $5 or $10 for her. Our bill is usually $7.45 for breakfast. She has my drink on the table before I even sit down. She double checks that I want my regular and I have my food just about by the time I get the girls settled in. I love it! It's my little bit of relaxation to let someone else serve me since I serve others all week long at home! I want her to know that I totally appreciate it. :) My mail lady is getting a gift card to the bead store for $20. She took up beading this year. :) Kids' teachers I am putting in for the class gift. I may also send along some cookies. UPS man is getting cookies. I don't care what that quiz says. He's awesome and he's here several times a week, sometimes with large packages! I bought extra tins of Cub Scout popcorn, so he may get one of those if I don't get ambitious and start baking soon!

I got a 7 out of 9. I got the one wrong about the building superintendent. It doesn't apply to me, so I have no idea! I also got the one wrong for the nanny/housekeeper about a week's salary plus a gift. If I had one of those, I'd probably tip them a little extra all year round because I'd be so grateful for the help!!!

This year in your Christmas stocking you will get : Reindeer Poop

You have to have over $25 in your cart for it to work. It won't work on the clover. I wanted the children's heart shaped sterling silver locket, but they were out of stock.

The more I think about it, the more I really like it! ... And hey, good bags last a long time! My hubby used to buy me lots of name brand bags (one every year for my birthday) and I still have many of them and they're in excellent condition. In fact, I may go dig one out of my closet now. Carrying a diaper bag is getting kind of old.

Oooh! This Basic Instinct Satchel in rose is nice! http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/4162StrjdjL._AA280_.jpg List Price: $79.00 Price: $54.89 & this item ships for FREE with Super Saver Shipping. Details You Save: $24.11 (30%) I think that will go on my wish list! Or maybe I'll just buy it for myself right now.

I'm not in italics but I mailed cards on 12/3 and SS and ornament on 12/4. Hubby handed me the receipt with the DC numbers on it. I know he got DC because I saw the 65 cent charge on each package. Unfortunately, the baby started crying and I walked upstairs and I think I took the receipt with me. From there...well... I don't know where it went, lol. I figured I'd PM it when I find it, but they'll probably receive my packages first! Yeah, they should make one of those little snippet shows about what happens to things in my house, lol. My 20 month old is the queen of rearranging!

That's great! Sounds like fun! I love covert operations.

My hubby sent out my secret santa & ornament today by Priority Mail. He has the numbers but I don't have them yet. I'll PM them when I get them.

Thank you to my Secret Santa!!! I opened the package today and I love everything. :) I got two handsoaps from B&BW (holly jolly mistletoe & warm chestnut cheer) and a box of perfumes from Victoria's Secret. I can't wait to wear some. Thank you!!!

It was only for that weekend. I ended up going to the store and the lady working there said I could be her friend.

Oh I hope I don't get banished from the exchange forever, lol. My mom has been here and life has been crazy. She left early Saturday morning and then I had two days to complete a case study for class that I had almost two weeks to complete! Anyway, my cards (which were written and even had stamps 10 days ago!) finally went out in the mail today. I couldn't get to the post office today before it closed but everything is packed and ready and I'll send it as soon as I get the kids on the bus in the morning. I'm not sure how I'll get in the post office with two babies and packages. Maybe I'll send my ds6 in before school with the packages and a note with instructions about how to mail them like I did when I mailed camp care packages, lol. The post office lady must think I'm a nutjob sending a little boy in with packages. Today my Secret Santa box came and I found it when I came home from getting the boys from the bus. It came from PA. I didn't get to open it yet and now it's right next to the baby's bassinet and I don't want to wake her up. I want to open it but I feel badly to open it before I mail out mine, so I'll open it tomorrow. Thank you to my Secret Santa! I'll post tomorrow after I open it. :) I just did a little extra whining to hubby and he said he'll try to get to the post office during work tomorrow.

Good deal!! I got mine today at Game Stop but I'll keep my eye out at WalMart and use the price scanner to check it if I find one. ;0)

I called all the local WalMarts this morning and they all said NO. I called all the stores in the mall where my hubby's working and they all said NO. I started calling Game Stop and started with the one closest to my house. The closest one said he had a few, but could not hold anything. He said they're not hard to get. I said yes they are. He said he was in WalMart last night and they had stacks and stacks of them. I called WalMart, since I have to go there for a site to store pickup anyway, and the guy said NO we do not have them. I said that's funny because someone told me they saw about 50 of them there last night. He acted like he didn't know what I was talking about. I'm not sure where 50 of them went since last night. Anyway, I called back Game Stop and he said he was sure they were there and they were on a cart to be stocked. He said, "You don't want to go there anyway. I'll hold one for you." I thanked him profusely and told him I'll be there as soon as the babies get up from a nap. Yay!

Oops! I missed number 9. I was thinking that didn't sound quite right, lol. I love Christmas songs and I love Christmas shows! They always remind me of when I was little.
