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!

Well... My drawer and extra cubby are over flowing... Guess I just need another cubby box!

Boo. But, the last several years most stores have done month long appliance sales, instead of confining to BF. So you'll just have to wait a few days from now for those sales to start. And you can concentrate on fun stuff for actual BF!

Thanks for the info on Kohl's and Penney's! I had not thought to look there. I got the 12 days Star Wars from Amazon last month. And I'm planning to get the kid sized ones for my grandson. The Marvel will be great for my son and BIL. And I am tempted with the Disney princesses at Kohl's. But I have too many socks already!

Tidy Cat cat litter, on sale at PetSmart. You'll want to be there close to opening, and be prepared for all the crazy cat ladies with 2 buggies full.

I received mine yesterday too.

Mostly I buy the $8.99 The Big One throws. Those are plush and big and soft. The $3.99 throws are by St. Nicholas Square. They are nice too, but not plush. I think those are close to the same size as the others. We usually buy those for the animals. But, I have already bought the gingerbread one for me this year. And because I have a problem... I have also bought the $14.99 ones, if they are the ones I'm thinking of. I think those are the Sherpa throws? Soft.

So sorry they are sideways.

I bought these for my sister last year and they were beautiful. They would be good for anyone with a kitchen, because who wouldn't love a set of nice and unique wooden spoons? They come in four colors. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B071RBVNNL/?coliid=IJ4R5IJO4Q4NQ&colid=ZG8AKK2A8PVX&psc=1&ref_=lv_ov_lig_dp_it&th=1

I like to bake, but for sugar cookies I kinda cheat and use the Betty Crocker mix in the bags. Just remember to set your butter out to soften, and it's very easy and they turn out great.

It's 7.5' I believe. At least 7.

Definitely the tree from Home Depot. I think it's $79. I got in line about 5:15 am and was able to get one. (btw, if you've never done BF at Home Depot, they know now to do it. Coffee, doughnuts, and an outdoor heater!) It was also available online the year I got mine, but I was too impatient to wait for shipping. You might could do store pickup though. It sold out online before I left at 5am to head out, so you'd want to order when it goes live.

Yes. It looks like the coupons are the same. You can get to the Kids site from the main site. https://www.michaelskids.com/

Michael's also launched a new website as well, michaelskids.com I believe. They are (were) running specials when it launched last week or the week before, and I had a coupon print out at the register. I think though the websites are still linked and attached.

Thanks! I may go ahead and grab that tomorrow then. I had no reference as to what to expect for price. My dad currently rents out a room. He has access to a kitchen, but he won't use it. I thought this might be good to use in his room for beans and rice and such.

I know what you mean. I got my Mickey loving grandson some Mickey Duplos during the Lego summer sale. When he hit 3 1/2, he switched to loving dinosaurs! Oh well, he'll still like building them. I'm still having to wait on my kids big things too. The things I have or will get early are controllers (the one he wants was discontinued), makeup (Ulta coupon good on Prestige brands!), Kohl's blanket, and a room decoration. And I hit the Target Lego sale for dino and super hero Duplos. I had my mama's picked out, but then she bought it.
