I pm at WM only, but do it almost everytime I go in there.

I usually get stocking stuffers at Radio Shack. The M&M radios are a hit with my kids and the older ones like the organizers. Hot Wheels are a good idea. Also, I put things like Batman bubble bath, Bob the Builder shaving set for the younger boys, stuff like that, they love it. Stocking stuffers at our house are pretty cheap because we spend all of the money on the presents. lol

I think every store should have some sort of freebie on bf. It wouldn't cost them much and it would be nice to see what each store would offer.

Well, it's certainly not the best place to be on bf, that's for sure.lol

We will stop in and visit MIL but we always have holidays at our house. It is so much better because I want the kids to feel comfortable and be free to have a good time on Christmas. Besides, I don't like dragging alot of stuff in and out.

Mine is in three big pieces. You just fit the pieces together, plug them in, and enjoy!! It's so easy.

Sorry, I know it's just a doll, but I'm afraid I couldn't sleep with her in the house. I've seen too many scary movies. Glad my girls are too old for her.

In the past we have given teachers goodie baskets, ornaments, photo frames, and just about a little of everything. WM has really cute ornaments for teachers $.97-$2.97 each for teachers. While doing my holiday baking, I make a little extra and fill baskets with treats, they like this because it cuts down on baking that they would have to do.

The item that I wanted to put on layaway was the laptop, which they have right now for $688. I called back today and spoke with the manager and it was cleared up. They will honor those prices on items put in layaway now as long as it's the same item that is in the ad. Which I already knew. So, all is well again.

I hate going to someone's house who doesn't have kids and they spend the whole time acting like they are okay, but you notice them looking nervous. I would rather stay at home than go somewhere and feel uncomfortable the whole time because people are "waiting" on your kids to either say or do something they shouldn't.

BF isn't bf without leaving the house at 2:30am, thinking you are getting an early start on everyone else only to find that there are as many people out as at rush hour on Friday afternoons.

Probably all of the things listed above, a bottle of Tylenol, something to snack on, and a little elf to follow me around all day and carry my packages for me.lol Yeah, dreaming a little bit myself with the last one.

BF isn't BF without my kids going to sleep the night before yelling all of their last minute requests from their rooms. lol

BF isn't bf without me going without sleep for 48 hours.lol

It's pretty neat to look back and look at the lists. Now I can remember almost everything I bought.lol

BF isn't BF without me getting the crabby ol' witch as a checker in my line at WM.

I just left our WM and came straight here to rant and rave!!! Those idiots don't know squat! I simply asked a lady whose badge said she had been there 23 years if it is possible to put items on sale early and get them out during early bird hours at the sale prices. She got pissed at ME!!! I wanted to slap her. She said that she has no idea and it is a little early for me to even be worrying about that because it is still a month away. I told her it was none of her business what I am worrying about and that I wanted to speak with her manager. Then it took forever for them to get over to the register. Then they said I could call back tomorrow and talk to the store manager if I have a problem. Well you can bet that I will. What a bunch of morons. On bf I have more problems out of the employees than out of anyone! Well, I feel better now!lol

That's nice to know because oldest son has ds.

Well, I certainly wouldn't spend $30.00 each on that many for sure.lol That's a tough one. Not sure what I would do about that, maybe suggest to fil that that is way too high for that many people or just spend $30.00 on a family gift for sil's family.

I have had bad experiences with the Hot Wheel Race packs on BF at WM. They don't last long, or maybe my boys are just too tough on them. lol What ages are they? The board game 2pks may be a good idea...

Thanks, will those also work on the SPs? I am hoping to pick up 2 of them at WM on BF this year for my two youngest sons. It would be great if they will work on those because they love those movies and that would be a nice way to keep them occupied in the van.lol

I signed up yesterday and haven't gotten an e-mail yet. Hope it comes though because I would really like to get in on that sale. Maybe it just takes a couple of days.

Whewww! Thanks for the info. Hopefully Sears will have some great deals.

Heck, I wouldn't mind getting some.lol When hubby's at work and kids are at school, I like to go to McDonald's for lunch.

Sorry, Heavenly, that was me.lol I heard something about it and I was really excited!!! Oldest son LOVES Tommy clothes and hubby has quite a few items, too, so I'm hoping that if they do but them out, the prices will go down.
