  1. I dont know if I have missed this message but my BIL just told me that all of our Garden centers are closing in September because they are just not making any money. Anyone else hear this? I am in Jacksonville fl.
  2. Patio Sets in 1 Jacksonville store and 3 Orange park stores confirmed at 75% off. Pots and other items at 30-50% still.
  3. Nah, I had to take the umbrella back because it was broken and he scanned the tag which rang up .01 cent and said something strange like umbrella sign. Then the umbrella stand shows as being on there twice but it doesnt say stand it just says smith and hawken or patio (the receipt is in the car and I dont recall but it certainly doesnt show what it is). So when I took it back to a different store (because they had plenty in stock) they almost gave me a refund thinking they had charged me twice for the umbrella! NUTS...
  4. Patio clearance in Jacksonvlle fl at mostly at 50% off plus the cashier made a mistake which I pointed out. Round table, aluminum but colored beige with what looks like a square paver pattern orig 379 for $187, umbrella stand originallly 49.00 for $36.xx (30%) and teh umbrella was 110 but priced at $79 but when he scanned the tag for it it rang up $36.XX. I believe that if I dont point something like that out that maybe I will get payed back in the future so I told him that on the front of the big umbrella hang tag there was a little ppocket for the sale sign which was for the umbrella stand which showed the exact price of the stand. HE repeated nicely NO I rang up the bar code on the back of the umbrella tag and this is what it said! so basically instead of paying a total of $302 I paid $259 and stopped on the way home and spent the difference in plants and planters for our new paver patio ! I tried...!
  5. OH NO, i ordered this too...It hasnt shipped yet but figure if I ask them to cancel it now they will probalby mess up my free shipping..
  6. by far, DS 5.5 loved his imaginext castle with dragon on the front that Santa found for $29.99 instead of its orig price of $54!
  7. Please note that many of these dont work unless you have a VS card.
  8. picked mine up today. Great way to capture the essence of our summer vacation in just a few shots
  9. all area kmarts out here in Orange Park Fl and Westside of Jacksonville fl, so I just did a price match at my local target. You will need the actual Kmart Flyer in order to do this though.
  10. these were marked clearance but must have only been about 10% off
  11. Orange Park Fl, (near Jacksonville Fl) Backpacks 50%, Patio 50%, One deck box large left at 50%, School 30%, Clearance in photobooks and scrapbooking, only one end cap of pools and toys left and one end of speedo goggles and life jackets left. Halloween decorations up in the outer aisles but the main area where they put the large animated stuff and big pumpkins still has school consolidated.
  12. Orange Park (on the edge of Jacksonville fl) has 50% off pools and toys today.
  13. Start searching now for upscale consignement shops either online or near you. Some women only use them for a bit and take them in. You wouldnt even know it had been used...then you have extra cash to stuff in the purse!
  14. Jacksonville Florida and Orange Park Fl moms, can you tell me what prices you have seen on toys?
  15. this didnt work for me. I used 3008 and 3050 and three different accounts
  16. i hope our kmarts close they are awful....but then i worry aobut the employees...

  18. try dell.com we just got a 8mp and 4gb chip for $134....may have only been a christmas deal but who knows. ..
  19. It may help to know what you are interested in shooting...is it just a point and shoot you want or a SLR where you can remove and change the lens etc.. if you want just a point and shoot, we are very happy with the two cannons we bought as gifts. i590 powershot has excellent reviews..... read about any camera at dpreview.com for more info. I had a kodak I loved but the camera broke 2 months after warranty...never owned another since. We are on our 3rd slr digital camera (we upgrade) and we have now bought the mentioned point and shoot for two others.
