Rossman...thank you for passing along the link to that photo website...I'll try that out...thanks again for all your hardwork throughout the year!

Just thought I'd see which digital camera everyone ended up buying...For those of you who did purchase one...how do you like it? I ended uup buying the Kodak Easy share Z740 because I needed the extra optical zoom it has. I've taken several different picutres under different conditions and I LOVE IT! Best decision I've made this season so far...lol

I personally thought Menards was awesome...i was towards the front of the line though. I got everyhting i wanted but the store was EXTREMELY crowded. I guess more people are "on" to Menards. They are usually always the first stop on my list.

At first when our kids were younger, they got the same number of gifts. now that they are older and understand, we spend the same $ amount on each of them. So we've explained to them that even though one or the other may have more gifts...they both = the same amount of money, and they are ok with that.

where in wisconsin?...i'm from stevens point and was at our kmart bright and early

bump

A puppy for christmas....very cute. Hope she finds the perfect one.

No matter when they come out...it's not soon enough for me...lol:violin:

We buy little gifts for our childrens' bus driver cause he is always doing special things for the kids on the bus. Other than him we don't buy gifts for the mailperson or garbageperson.

You will have better luck finding one if you look for an Alpine Tree. That is what they are called, I have one and I love it.

I just want to say a big THANK YOU to all who are posting their opinions on this topic. This has been useful in narrowing down which one I want so far pending on the ads we haven't seen yet:D

just guessing here...but Shopko usually has stuf like that on sale around BF.

Joann's does have BF sales and they are usually very good. If I remeber correctly though...they are not super earli in the am. Also I think the sales at Joann's are better during opening weekend of deer hunting.

Kmart's prices always seem to be a couple of bucks higher than all the other stores too...Im talking on a year 'round basis...not BF

I personally get a kick of of Larry the Cable guy's parady of Christmas songs, it is off the wall hilarious!

If I had a job where I got a discount, I would have no problem using it to buy something for someone if it's what they wanted in the first place. Don't feel silly at all.

I am a very avid in sewing. You guys might be better off going to a sewing machine store and seeing if they have any good used ones. Brother sewing machines are not very good. In my personal experience you are better off buying a better brand but used. Many women such as myself will upgrade to a newer model, thus trading in a machine. You can find some very good ones that way. I currently own an Elna and a Bernina and they are wonderful.

I like the two John Grisham wrote a couple of years ago

You may want to check to see if your area has a freecycle gorup. It is a group that you can ask for stuff and get rid of unwanted items rather than throwing them away. It is pretty cool if you have one in your area, check it out.. I think you just go to freecycle.org and look for you in your area.
