Yeah, the only "as seen on tv" thing I've gotten has been the Betty Crocker bake-n-fill pan set..which by the way, is really neat! Come to think of it, I got it from QVC when they had their special! LOL I've seen now that Walmart has their version of that bake-n-fill set for about $15. I've only fallen for one informercial..for the NADS wax which worked for the 1st year! LOL

Does anybody purchase their gifts from QVC or HSN? LOL I've been staying up late since my daughter hasn't been sleeping well, and I've ordered like 4 things from those shopping stations! They're the devil! LOL

Thank you very much! He'll hopefully be home for Christmas, so this year is almost over with!!!

I personally haven't found any deals at the outlet malls near Denver, but that doesn't mean that other outlets won't have any good sales.

Oh, and pet peeves are those who cut in line or ram ya in the heels with their shopping carts! LOL

I haven't a choice about keeping my daughter at home this year (she'll be 20 months) due to hubby being in Iraq. Last year hubby took her at 8 months but he didn't wait in the cold, I was the 1st to leave at 6am. He left alot later. I can agree that a newborn shouldn't be outside in cold weather at 3am but if it's not THAT cold, later in the morning, and you have no choice, I don't see a problem with it.

Is this doll lifesized or something? Cause I aint paying no $100 for a doll! LOL Wow!

Just wondering on BF, do you charge all your items, use cash only, or combine the both. I use my debit or credit card and always pay off the next month for my credit! Last year hubby and I had a good amount of cash, which he took with him and I used the debit so we didn't bounce anything. But usually, he has the debit and I have credit. Thank God, he doesn't have any major credit cards!!

My daughter, since she'll be old enough to rip into the gifts this year and of course hubby since he'll just be getting home from Iraq!

I usually have a purse with me. This year will be a diaper bag but will get left in the van while shopping. I have a clear wallet thing that can be worn around your neck and it holds my cc and id card.

SO my 300 lb, 6ft hubby has to climb OVER the passenger seat...EVERYTIME LOL @ Deals!!! I'll be taking the minivan this year with the backseat out! LOL Just in case! I may switch carseats though, my dd's carseat is a booger in the van but is super quick and easy in the vitara! Whatever time I can save with a toddler, I'll take! LOL

LOL Budget? What's that?? It'll depend on what's on sale!

Last year at WM, most of the toys were in the toys section. I just had to figure out which pallet was for that dang FP piano that I wanted to get, so me and about 5 older ladies sort of "cut" into a part of each of the plastic liners to see what was in there! LOL I know, cheating, but hey, it worked! I was in and out of WM within 15 minutes!

Hello all, my "tip" from last year was to organize what I wanted from each store and to figure out if Walmart carried it. If they did, I was able to get a price match. That saved me SO much time and money being able to do that!
