Another thing that we did was when dh worked at Penneys he would call me when they were having big sales and I would go buy a ton of t shirts pants and misplaced socks and clearanced toys and bag it all up and take it to the school. Because at our old school the kids would have a gift swap and if there happened to be an underprivledged kid in the class most likely the teachers with a little help from the school board would go buy a bigger nicer gift for that particular child and wrap it up and give it to them to take home to open. I liked going to school after christmas break and seeing those kids wearing thier new shirts and being so proud of thier new stuff. I would say hey I like your shirt they would say thank you I got it for christmas not knowing that we got it for them

I volunteered at the Salvation Army one year with ds1 (was 5) and dd(was 3)in tow and had a great time filling the orders when the parents/guardians arrived Ex: they gave us thier case #'s and we would walk through and look for thier #'s which were taped out in a grid across the floor. If thier daughter was "picked" and got a bike or a whole bunch of clothes and thier son wasn't then you would take them to some awaiting tables to let them pick out x number of gifts for the son. If the daughter only got one purchased gift the parent would also get to pick out I believe 6 other gifts from the table. (I am thinking that there was a 7 item per child thing going on) All of the donated toys (stuff on the tables) were really nice everything from new bikes to barbies and everything in between all brand new in boxes. The parent had to meet some kind of qualification for the bikes though. My kids helped out in the back filling gift bags(the giant christmas bags about 2'x3') with everything from wrapping paper to tape to books, crayons even birthday party supplies for the childrens birthday parties that year. I am with you on the not wanting to buy the real expensive stuff but if you want to buy just take the tag and read into it ex: if it is a 1yo girl asking for a swing set or something crazy I would get a couple cute outfits, a carebear a new pair of house slippers and some sippy cups.

Lillian Vernon or Miles Kimball have alot of reasonably priced personalized ornaments. Both also offer quite a bit of indoor and outdoor decorations pretty cheap too.

Usually no they are not on sale but you never know with BF sales. ToysRUs will run a B1G1 offer once a year around late September on all accessories. If you keep watch I bet that before Christmas they will go down to around $39.99.

The cheapest way is to just call your local florist tell them what you are looking to spend, maybe a flower or two that you would like to be included and they will set you up. We always ordered mil's flowers via the florist in her town and would tell them xx dollars and she would email us the pics of her gorgeous bouquets. This year I had a $25 to FTD and used it and still paid $40 they fed ex'd her the flowers which were a bunch of twigs and were really scraggly and no vase. I swear the $5 bouquets at walmart are prettier than what she got. I will not use them again next mothers day it will be the local delivery for us again.

Yall wouldn't know if Town East has the same sale would you? I have no clue where the malls are that you are talking about. Town East is closest to me at an hour away. TIA;)

Yes, ex: if ds says fire they will shoot, if he says stand down they will not shoot, if he says return to base they will return to base. It will do alot more voice commands but I can't remember tham right now. You have to use the regular controller as well it's not a voice only game.

This is also what I would do and have done.

Yes, one headset will work on all compatible games. Circuit City has one for the Xbox for $19.99 http://www.circuitcity.com/ssm/Microsoft-Xbox-360-Headset-882224035323/sem/rpsm/oid/138270/catOid/-16534/rpem/ccd/productDetail.do It can also be used for online games as well through the XBox. I don't know if they make Socom or Madden for XBox but I am sure someone in the B&M store could help you find games specifically for the headset. If I were you I would try to stay away from the ones that are online play due to your brothers age.

Thanks, I will write these down and go have a look. I will post a pic when i get it finished

Here's a site I found with mini's, here's a few I was looking at. http://www.wallywine.com/ps-19995-636-bombay-gin-mini-50-ml-50ml.aspx http://www.wallywine.com/ps-14750-636-ketel-one-citroen-minis-50ml.aspx http://www.wallywine.com/ps-10790-636-chambord-liqueur-50-ml-mini-50ml.aspx

This year my dh and I are thinking of getting BIL a gift basket filled with about 15 different shot bottles. All are going to be something dh thinks bil has never tried and we're going to throw in a 6pack of Bud and a couple shot glasses. Do you think it's a bad idea?

How about make your brother a gift basket with a game or two, a few of his favorite snacks (oreo's, gum, favorite soda's) a new hoodie or a sweatshirt with his favorite football team a pack of socks and a cap.

My ds has a headset that he uses when he plays his Socom games it drives me nuts. He already is bad about talking to his games and I am all the time telling him to be quiet well when he plays those he has to talk to them I swear it makes me want to pull my hair out.
