  1. Yes, you can use the discounts on Hallmark ornaments, but do it soon! I got mine on the Veteran’s day sale. They were already picked over and sold out of ones I really wanted. I get mine here every year when I can.
  2. Got my 25% off again this year. Gotta love it!
  3. I’ve had them empty my cart before the sale starts and left me scrambling to remember what I had in it. Have a list just in case.
  4. I know I’m old when I’m waiting for Home Depot and Menards to see if there are any deals on things for a bathroom remodel and tools for my older DS. Wish they would just release the ads!
  5. Does she have one from Indiana. I’ll send her one. I missed out on the exchange this year, but really want to do it next year.
  6. Ring Doorbells! Original vs. Ring 2 vs. Pro? Which would you recommend? Is it worth the extra money for the Pro? Sent from my iPad using GottaDEAL
  7. I got two of the down alternative comforters, some kitchen stuff for my son, and some clothes for me! 20% worked with the home10 too. I'm so happy and no running or lines! Thank you guys!
  8. My top favorites are: Year Without a Santa Claus, The Christmas Story, Elf, and Charlie Brown Christmas. I love all the old movies and the old cartoon ones too.
  9. I have a 13 and 15 year old. I struggle for ideas too. They have asked for clothes this year (a first). They want Nike, Adidas, and Under Armour. They also are into wearing Nike elite socks to school. They want all different colors. What about winter things? (if you live where it snows) Sleds, snowball makers, snowboards, or gift card to local ski lodge? I have been getting them the gift sets with men's cologne or body wash. Anything to encourage good hygeine. We also started them on a tool collection. We started with a tool box and every year we add a new tool like, a hammer, screwdriver set, wrenches, etc. They have used some of them already. We buy them craftsman so they will hold up for years. This way, by the time they graduate from college, they will have their own set of good tools. We have also got them special cooking sets like a waffle maker w/mix, a dounut maker w/mix, and such. They love taking out their machines and making snacks or breakfast for them and their friends. Add a cookbook too! I've tried anything to get them interested in someting other than video games. Good luck! Hope this helps.
  10. Help! I'm looking for ideas besides gift cards (done that for the past three years). She is going off to college next year and may be going far away. I got her brother a microwave when he was her age, but if she goes to school in Hawaii like she talked about, she can't take that on a plane. Any ideas of unique ideas that she can use at college? Thanks
  11. tHANKS!!!! I just ordered sweatshirts for my whole family. The HOLIDAY10 works! My boys will be thrilled!
  12. Wow, thanks for all the responses! I'd forgotten about the ped egg and the chia pet. I know exactly who I'm buying that for! I hope I get the big donut pan or the perfect brownie pan! I'll have to check out walgreens ad. It's great to hear about those that don't work well. If I have to spend money on these things, I at least want them to be worth it. Keep the ideas coming if you have them!
  13. My BIL throught it would be fun this year for the siblings on my DH's side to exchange As seen on TV gifts to each other. We have a $20 spending limit. Can anyone help with some ideas of products that you own or have given that are worth the money? They just let us know this about two weeks ago and I had already figured out what to buy them. Now, I'm scrabbling for ideas. I told them next year they better tell me in July because I start planning back then. Any help would be appreciated! I have six adults to buy for (3 women & 3 men). Thanks!
  14. Cheesy Potatoes Ho-Ho Cake Polish Noodles Corn Casserole
  15. Thank you so much!!! I just got my DS and DH one for Christmas. I had just bought one on Amazon's daily deals and was looking for two more. Now, we can all rest in peace on Christmas night!
  16. My DS asked one year for a rubber chicken! He ended up getting chickens for three years after that. He took in his collection of rubber chickens for show and tell in first grade. His teacher about died laughing!
  17. I know that my kids when they were younger loved getting fastfood gift cards such as McDonalds, Dairy Queen, Buger King.. They were so excited to be able to go up and pay for their own meals with their cards. Also Pizza Hut gift cards were nice. You could find out what their favorite places are. I liked it because there were times I didn't have the money to take them out and this was a special treat for them. Just an idea!

    Cookies for Santa

    Well, at our house we put out whatever cookies we have made, carrots for the reindeer, and a cold beer. The beer came from my sister who started leaving it at her house and my kids insisted that they needed to leave one at our house. Also, Santa never gets to eat the cookies at our house because the dumb dog eats them before Santa gets a chance. We are going on four years straight no matter where we put them. She manages to leave part of the carrots with teeth marks at least! The kids think that the reindeer left them, but they do not know the dog ate the cookies. My Dh and I just laugh each year as the dog out smarts us all. Luckily, she hasn't gotten the beer yet!
  19. Thanks so much! I saw this in the Target ad and wanted it for my DS. I wasn't about to pay $49 in case it didn't work on his laptop, but got it for $9.99! He'll love it and it looks pretty cool.
  20. I'm waiting for the toshiba, NBA Live 10 for xbox, and Raving Raddids TV Party. I'm giving up soon!! My eyes hurt and my DH is going to kill me in the morning for staying up so late.
  21. Thanks, I've been struggling with this decision and am so happy! My DH is going to Love me on Christmas morning. He'll be so surprised!!!:D
  22. I got the garmin 255wt for $129! Now for the laptop ~ this waiting is hard but I'm happy
  23. Thanks I got another year renewed for my DS 10 who loves the magazine. I did pay the $5, but it was better than the 14.97 renewal that they just sent me a few days ago. Thank goodness I didn't renew at that time.
