My dd got a laptop 2 years ago for her senior year. My ds, who is a senior this year is getting clothes, an Ipod touch. It is so hard to buy for older kids!!!

I stress a little over this every year. My DH partners & employees vary so much. This year for the married ones I am doing popcorn/movie bowls(complete with milk duds, dvds popcorn/seasonings etc.) as well as bowls with bundt pans/bundt mixes and silicone spatulas. ( i bought 20 bowls from coldwatercreek back in Jan of last year.) The single ones are getting insulated travel mugs & coffee. This is on top of bonuses, just a personal touch from my DH.

My spending is under control and within what i can afford, but after looking at what I have spent, and what I will spend to complete, I am sick.

I was told plasma tv's are not for those who live above 7000', due to the gas expanding. i live a little too close to that, so I am going for lcd.

Ok, I was going to try to figure out how to post this in the "deals" so I can try to win one....buy.com has a bundle in stock with I think 4 games. A little pricey$577? but, if you are buying games anyway.. it isn't too bad at all. hope it helps.

One year I ordered Prime rib roasts for all the diificult people on our list from a local steakhouse(pre-cooked, but frozen, about 14# each). I was nervous, and as it turned out, it was great as a gift. I am about to repeat next year, as I am running out of ideas.

I am so excited again this year!! I totally forgot to update "likes and dislikes" from last year!!LOL!! I hope i still like the same stuff!! Let the fun begin!!!

Alright, this is really taking the fun out of my next week. So sorry brad. It seems that they are riding on the coat tails of Walmarts position?

My dh sneeks out of our bedroom window and ring sleigh bells up to our kids window. We make all of our kids camp out in one room that night. My DD is 19 and loves to come home and spend the night with her little bros. Anyway, he will yell"ho ho ho" and bang the sleigh bells until I can here a little movement in there, and he will hurry back into our window, and bed.

Costco has it right now for about $39( I can't recall exactly)!! Hope it helps!!

Brad..if more affiliations are severed, is GD going to vanish? I think I might be having a panic attack over the thought of it.
-
This sucks Brad! Sorry it seems to be rolling this way. I will email in the a.m., when I have a moment.

I am really needing help this year on teacher gifts. Problem is, my boys' best friends Dad is one of their teachers. He is also one one of my closest friends husband. He used to work for my DH, years ago. So would it be wrong to do a really nice family gift?
-
Not that I think it is true, but my thought is that they are really trying to spread out the so called "specials" through out the month, like the secret sales and such. In there own way down play BF. Just my thoughts.

My Dh went to Kmart one year with me on Thanksgiving day. His job was to get pillows that were on sale. A lil old lady drove her cart right up to his and took them OUT of his cart while HE watched and said" Oh it's okay, I reaally didn't want those!!!" He won't go anymore, or let any of the kids. Says it is too dangerous!!
-
I am trying to be strong. I have finished all of my shopping as of this a.m.. I just have to wait till after Thanksgiving to wrap. We don't really put any "stay at home' gifts under the tree, do to little boys peeking.

This ad started today. I just wish they would get it together.

I was at my Walmart yesterday, thought about picking the "Trans Siberian Orchestra" cd that was going to be on sale today. Just being me, I stopped myself I went back and got it today. Do you think the register gave me the sale price? Heck No!! Do you think I noticed before I got home? No!! I couldn't even find other stuff they had in the ad, on the shelves. Ugh, this place is wearing on my last nerve.
-
I am a list person. Organized,and planning out things all of the time. Then the ads start coming out and BOOM! My DH starts thinking we out to buy a few things...like a new 50"lcd tv, or random gifts for one child,only to play "catch up" on the others. Bouncy Santa hats, or Elvis Presley ornaments, & mountains of candy. Do you ever have buyers remorse after the holidays?
-
Walmart has bundles in stock this morning too!!

Don't laugh, but I had heard about QVC in in the UK. It is just a thought for family members over there!!! Check out their website!!
