I just bought one today. Usually drink Pepsi but felt like a change.

In a way it feels like that's forever...but I know time will fly by and I still won't be ready...lol.

I don't but might have to get the Christmas Story ones. Love that movie.

We don't make a big deal out of Santa so he only brings a couple things...the rest are from us.

After the kids open their presents and everyone has had showers and gotten dressed we will head over to his grandparents. My parents are deceased and sis lives in another state so that makes it easy. We open our gifts to the girls that morning and then the other familys later that day. We will be having Tamales this year. Kinda weird to me but that is what they have.

Well I just couldn't imagine what my hubby would say..lol.

We need to buy new ones too. We got our last ones handmade at a mall...and when my sis and I were little they were also handmade by a friend of my dad's. Maybe this thread will help me too.

I haven't had to deal w/ this but I am not a big "Santa" person. I mean we say Santa might bring toys and such...but we don't really make a big deal out of it.

I was wondering that too.

My husband is even getting excited already. Can't imagine what we are going to be like that week.

They should start it around 3 or so...might get more people that way.

I usually get mine w/ in 6-8 weeks.

Not me but I worked w/ a girl that thought he was God...lol.

Try this thread....http://forums.gottadeal.com/showthread.php?t=16374 and this one...http://forums.gottadeal.com/showthread.php?t=17359 There may be a couple more...not sure...but they should answer your ?'s.

Why don't you ask an associate there such as a manager? Ask them what time people start showing up. They usually know.

I actually wish for people to stay home...lol. More chance of me gettin that deal. Although I know that this year I am going to have to deal w/ worse crowds than ever...because there is no snow or cold weather here. Just hoping I can get the things I want.

That's simple...because they think they are better or smarter than everyone else. Loved to see them get busted by the cops and made to wait til everyone ...even people just showing up were in.

My daughters had the vacuum that comes w/ the broom and loved it. Going to replace it if I can find it.

I also bought my daughter an Aquadoodle for the car for Christmas. Wanted one she could leave in there and I didn't have to throw in the washer all the time.

My daughter LOVES her dolls too. Every time we go anywhere she wants another one.

I would suggest you get the plastic or wood stuff and try to avoid the paper boxes. They always get destroyed.

I have a 2 year old that will be 3 in January. She gets bored w/ EVERYTHING easily...lol. But she did have a vanity that would play w/ and I bought a lot of stuff to go w/ it....like rings and shoes and stuff at the dollar store for cheap. I bought her a new one for Christmas this year to replace it. But unless you get it at Walmart or something it's probably going to be more than $30.

Nope and I probably won't til Thanksgiving.

I also wanna respond to this. I always pick my own. I am not at all offended by doing so. Now maybe if hubby gave me a limit to spend I would be. But since I just go buy what I want...I am happy...and I never buy ME something I won't like...or a can opener or something...lol.

For my Aunt and Uncles first Christmas that they were married...instead of giving her a gift, he gave her $50 a couple weeks before(this is about 35 years ago) and told her to go pick herself something out. Well, to his suprise on Christmas day there was a brand new television sitting under the tree on Christmas day. He couldn't understand how she could have gotten it for only $50 until she explained that she used the 50 as a down payment and that he would be making payments on it. Needless to say, he never ever gave her money to buy her own gift again...lol.
