My Target had the 10" ones but not the 8". On encaps by video games. I left it as I didn't like the reviews on Target.com (its a target exclusive). 4 reviews and it got all 1 star ratings -

Items to sell at flea market
elena_398 replied to fulkersonm's topic in Deal Finder & Deal Discussion
Yes. We have a vendors license. My mom claims the taxes. She has been fleamarketing for over 30 years. She makes over 36,000 a year just doing fleamarketing. She sells childrens toys, clothes, books, and games. She sterilizings everything and puts new batteries in each toy that needs it. You need a vendors license if you do it full time. The fleamarket my mom sells at does weekly vendor license checks. You don't have one then you get fined big time -
audiovox 10" at Target (exclusive per box) is clearanced to $104 right now regularly $150, but the reviews on line are so bad Im going to pass and not wait for them to go down. actually audiovox got pretty bad reviews in general. I want one thats going to last for my daughter. Im going to buy walmart's GPX pink portable DVD player. Its $100 for a 8.5 inch, but it has a USB slot to play pics ,etc. I have $50 Walmart card I just redeemed from MyPoints and a $25 one I got from my husband's work. So $75 off coming. $25 plus tax isn't too shabby. Plus its in pink, my daughters signature color. LOL (also comes in blue and red). Free shipping to store

Official Sweepstakes and Contest Tips Thread
elena_398 replied to happysunshine28's topic in Deal Finder & Deal Discussion
I entered 75% of them personally. I can't really go on a trip with my kids school and husbands work so I don't really enter the trip ones (just once or so ). -
Thank you. Im so excited now! Its 5 minutes away... about a mile from Target and Kmart and walmart so I should have a straight line in shopping this year!

Stores should universally adopt more BF policies as BF is getting bigger and bigger every year 1. Ticket systems for items. Cuts down on the craziness 2. Have everything stocked and clearly displayed on BF. I hate when an item should be in one department and they put in another... Then when you FINALLY find out where it is, its out as they didn't get a lot in stock (personal experience. LOL) 3. Have plenty of employees on duty that day with the WHOLE store employees knowing where items are at.... policies.... and cashiers ready to go. 4. Maps of stores help. For the last 2 years, my Walmart passed out maps as you came into the store. Helped so much in locating where things are. 5. Have big sales the whole week up to BF. One day of craziness is crazy. I would love to see great BF sales on the days leading up. Online and/or in store. This saves me the headache of going out a lone and trying to figure out how Im going to get the 5-10 items I need before they sell out!

This year its semi hard because my kids 14 and 8 don't play with toys. Just electronics. Expensive. Now next year will be near impossible because they own everything under the sun. LOL.

Items to sell at flea market
elena_398 replied to fulkersonm's topic in Deal Finder & Deal Discussion
I use my coupon savy and walgreens Register rewards to stock pile new items. I have over 300 items that I've gotten free or pennies on the dollar. I resell at the flea market throughout the summer (my mom has a booth so I don't pay a rental fee). I use my money for christmas and extras. Its a real money maker if you learn to coupon and buy clearance items. Some are hit and miss, but for the most part people love a great bargain. Last Saturday I made over $260. Stock is down, but great day -

I had a good turnaround in shipping. You should get them. -
Only one year was I hesitant to go out. It was a few years ago and it was snowing and icing up pretty bad. I went out though and thankfully everything went well. Later on I watched the news and they said accidents were everywhere (stores I was shopping at). Luckily I made it home safe. After that, its just super cold.
-
I always pay with my debit card. I have over $800 saved for christmas. I will deposit it in checking before BF and use my debit card. I bring a small wallet that fits in my pocket (instead of my purse). So I have my debit card and drivers license ready.
