Extra Bucks print out on your receipt. Then they are available for use immediately. You could break up your purchases and "roll" your ECB into the next purchase, paying a small amount for each transaction. As I've gotten older I find I have less patience, so I'll just buy everything and get all the ECB at once. And then I'll get the things that are on sale but don't give ECB and apply those earned ECB. Like gift-type items or the 2 liters.

PetSmart has tidycats. I can't remember the price right now, but I'm sure it's cheaper than $7.99.

I'm glad I'm not the only one that names our robot vacuums! The first one was Rosie, the current one is Mega maid. We currently have the Shark Ion 750. It came with magnetic strips that you mark off boundaries with. So that we can mark off the bathroom where there is more likely to have cat messes. Or... Under desks, sofas, etc. We pick up the small throw rugs that we have learned she gets caught on. But it sure is nice to not have fur and cat litter on the edges of all the walls now!

Thanks! A couple things caught my eye as I looked quickly... $5gc with 2 $25 google play cards. I'm buying those anyway, so I'll keep that in mind. Also, B1G2 free reading glasses.

Awesome, thank you! Looks like 11 free items. I always get the Reese's bags from there. And I'll grab some Pepsi 2 liters.

I never go to Big Lots, and I'm not sure I'd have the patience on Thanksgiving. But, I really like a couple of the sofas, and the twin size bed. Those both sound like difficult purchases though.

I had never heard of a weighted blanket until a few weeks ago. I was intrigued. Now one in the ad... Hmmm... That might make it on the list! I'll get the PlayStation VR as well. And they will be the back up for the Instant Pot, Google mini, home, and hub if I'm unable to get them from Kohl's.

Last year there was something my son wanted that I wasn't expecting to be on sale anywhere. I was pleasantly surprised to find it $50 off on Thanksgiving morning. By the evening that discount had shrunk, but was still a discount. This year he possibly wants an Oculus Rift as well. So I plan to check Amazon early Thanksgiving and hope! Other son wants Sony VR. But Target has that one in their ad, so I at least know something about that one.

Seems like in the past they've done free ship at $25 for the Thanksgiving week sale. Don't hold me to that though!

Holy cow y'all, I did not get my order placed until 11:15 least night!! Yesterday was just not a good day for trying to shop, everything was working against me. One print was sold out on the blanket, but that's okay, got second choice, and I can still try to get it later. Nice surprise that the 15% for holiday entertaining worked on the towels as well as the 20. So ended up with 2 throws, towels and wash cloths, a toddler outfit, and then 2 gingerbread plates for fillers. Not bad!

Well that PS4 bundle is currently $349 on Amazon. And it doesn't look like it's discontinued. But it also says in the Target ad $100 off all other Playstation VR bundles. So that's good!

Happy November! Off to add to my Kohl's throws collection! Thank Brad!

Yep! Plus 20% off as well! Hooray!

We also ordered the thing to build... Hope it gets built! I'm also thinking of buying the Nuka cola lamp. That looks pretty cute. My fallout kid hasn't told me yet what he wants. Hopefully he will soon! Leading candidate is Oculus Rift, so then we can get a couple things to go with.

Yep. Exactly all that!

For the fillers, I try to get some things related to the main item. Has he already pre-ordered Fallout76? Did you get the thing from think geek that you have to build? I looked just yesterday, and they have a lot of neat fallout things. Maybe one of those might interest him? But my kids usually don't have just "one thing" it seems. Last year, one son wanted a turn table. And then all the things... Cleaner, bookshelf speakers, albums, record cases... So that made it easy. Older son will usually say a particular table gaming set he wants, so then again accessories... Paint, other figures, tools... On one hand I hate it, because I feel like it's just all one thing that relates... But on the other hand makes it kinda easy, and it's what they want.

FYI... They also make The Big One bed sized blankets that are very comfy and soft too. They are usually $19.99 any size on BF. My kids got spoiled, so that's all they ever want. Youngest son has already asked me about a good deal on one, his friend saw his and now she wants one too!

I went and looked on Amazon for slime gift card holders. They had some in a jar, which reminded me that in my Michael's email this morning they advertised plastic jars to decorate and fill with slime! So I could make it, and put on a fun label. Thing is, the ones at Amazon were called things using snot and poo, and me and mama don't like to use those words (sister would be okay with it). So I'd have to get a little more creative.

Oh! That would be really great for the 14yo nephew that only ever wants digital money! (now let's see if I remember to look for it, since I literally never go to Walmart.)

The 25% coupon was on the toy book I got in the mail. The books should be in the store today, and I would think they'd be on those too.

Yeah, my daughter had been eyeing the T Rex as well, and noticed a couple weeks ago with the $25/100 coupon that it was excluded from coupons. She had been hoping to get it during the 30% off toy sale if they do that again. We checked Amazon and they had a warehouse deal on it with a damaged box for I think $85, so we were going to continue to check there. Thanks for the info on the Kmart points! That's a nice deal. I'll let her know.

We've done holiday trivia, using an app on our phones to "click in" with the answers. Have everyone send in a picture of a Christmas decoration at their house, and have people guess whose it is. We've also done white elephant many times. But honestly, I despise that game and never participate. We also did something with wrapping paper once... But I can't remember that that was. I'll have to keep thinking about that one.

It says excludes video games., but not video game hardware... So I'm not real sure what the intentions are... Excludes video games, Nintendo LABO, LEGO, Fisher Price Imaginext Jurassic Rex, Thomas & Friends Super Station Trackset, Hot Wheels Corkscrew Crash Trackset and Barbie Dreamhouse.

I would LOVE someone to gift me a cleaning service!! Our friends gift us with Amazon Prime each year, which is really cool.

I love using the Kohl's wish list feature. Then when the sale goes live, I just run through the list adding everything to my cart!! Easy peasy!
