since i refuse to pay for custom ring tones, i'll stick with whatever my phone comes with.

well, i'd only get them for my sister, who is a starbucks addict.

fry's! and best buy!

my favorite mall back home is crowded on a regular weekend, bf is going to be nuts. but i'll probably be there later in the day to just clothes shop.

mom: if she hasn't already bought it for herself, an MP3 player. luckily she doesn't understand the concept of an ipod, so i was just hoping to pick up any cheap decent one i can find. dad: last year i got him a nice polo shirt, this year... i might cop out and get him a GC to home depot.

um... ralph lauren.. but at the outlet... so there's basically no BF sales for me. maybe i'll go to macy's and wander. also will try my other favorite, aeropostale.

i want circuit city or best buy... and for a little local flavor... FRY'S!

saved by the bell! if it's cheap, i'd SO buy it. same goes for ALF.

make sure you make photocopies of everything you submit. when i do my rebates, i even photocopy the envelope (postage by a postage meter so it stamps the date on there) so they can't even argue that i didn't make the postmark date. plus it verifies i sent it to the correct address.

i would NEVER do let anyone get in front of me like that. to the back of the line! i woke my behind up, freezing outside for hours, you aren't paying your way to the front of the line.

i love them as long as i get them. there was one i didn't get last year, but it was a soyo rebate... so who knows.

my antec case for 4.99 AR

i don't have a tree. i wanted to get just a little "shrub" i could put up for the holidays, but my bf kept going "we don't need it, we move to much" blah blah blah. THIS YEAR if he doesn't give in on the tree (we're not making any major moves for the next three years) i'm making my own freaking tree, and taping it on top of his michael jordan cut out, since that's where i congregated all our presents that we got for our families and friends last year. i was going to make just a little tree, maybe a foot tall out of construction paper, but the michael jordan cut out is 6'6". i'm tempted to cover the entire thing. hehehehehehehee.

the wandering around is half of the fun of shopping! men don't understand this. i even love wandering around grocery stores, since you never know what unadvertised sale may be happening!

i was SO mad that they closed all the esprit stores! i loved buying shoes and wallets from them! there are no jcrew outlets near me - i've only seen the one back home in gilroy. outlets just require patience. most of them is the previous season's clothing, so the key is just to wait until a major holiday when they start their sales. same goes for regular stores! i love buying clothes in january since they're all on sale!

oh man. if i didn't need new tires and brakes... a second laptop in the house would be nice.

if i'm getting up at the crack of dawn, i'll probably be alone unless it's a super tech deal, then my brother will go with me. no one else is insane as i am. my aunt would go, but she goes to jc penney/wal mart/etc and i like to hit up the computer deals really early.

my trusty honda civic, since i don't buy that much. i think last year i took that to fry's, but i wasn't buying anything large, just a bunch of parts. the hardest part was finding a shopping cart to throw all the parts in.

outlets don't really do a BF thing. it depends on the outlet and what stores are inside - if there's an old navy there may be SOME bf deals, but not many. you may be able to get just a general sale that weekend though. i love outlets though, they're my favorite place in the world. walk around all day, all the major stores i love, and at the discounted prices...

i feel naked without a purse.

nope.

usually thanksgiving morning. last year i was driving back home on thanksgiving morning, and my parents didn't get to a stand in time to find a paper. i tried searching frantically when i got up there but alas, everyone was sold out.

wow, good job! welcome back!

ross are you sure you're not confusing your home with the store?

wow lots of new members in this thread! welcome all!
