  1. I kind of agree with your husband but then again a 6yo probably wouldn't fit in these very well(unless he's small). Maybe take them to the store and see if he fits or just look at it yourself in person(if you're good in measuring space).

     

    My bff got her daughter a blue mini for her 4th bday but baby brother was only 18 months or so at the time. Is the oldest girl a girly girl? I can see how it would be cool to get her a bright pink one but if she doesn't care either way and it's just to fulfill your dream then maybe go with the blue anyhow?

     

    I'm not blown away by anything in the ad, most things are 40-50% off which is the equivalent of their BOGO sales. I thankfully got ALL my toys 75% off at Target toy sale. The coupon booklet(on last page) could be interesting so maybe I'll pass by for that depending on opening time but not a must have.

    My son is small, 44 inches and 39 pounds at 6 years old. And my oldest daughter is a girly girl. I think we are going to wait until next year and get the girls one for Christmas as their big gift. By then my son will be absolutely too big. Thanks!!

  2. I really want that Barbie Power Wheels. My husband thinks we should get a gender neutral one since we have a son that is 6. But I say he's getting kind of old for it and we have 2 girls, 4 and 18 months. What do you think? Is it a good deal? This is something I wanted as a child but never got so it has special meaning for me.
  3. I've been wanting a Cricut for a couple of years but I don't know much about them. I don't scrapbook, yet, but I do a lot of posters and signs and it would be great to not have to cut out a bunch of letters. Is this one good for that? Would it be better to get the one at Michaels, the Cricut v2 for $200, regular $400? The only problem is I might not be able to make it to Michaels when they open at 4pm on Thanksgiving. If this one is discontinued can you still get cartridges for it? Thanks!!
  4. I will disagree with you on that. We've had them before. My son broke his (his fault, not the toy's) and wants another one. I never had problems with them although I do think Leapfrog makes a better one (we have that too). Since we have tons of games for it, it just makes sense to get one for $20.

    Maybe we just got bad ones. The first lasted 6 months the second only 3 months. We had a ton of games and the vsmile system so I just sold the system with the games for $30. But if we still had the games I might would consider getting it for only $20. And I do agree that the Leapster is miles better. My son's has been dropped out of the car on the cement, spilled water on, gets dropped out on the floor daily and still works after 2 years. Love it! We are getting the Leap pad since I've been so impressed with the durability of Leap Frog products.

  5. Well since I'm 95% sure that they will get marked down tomorrow I will be there at 8:00 and stay until I pick up my son from preschool if I have to. On a good day I can spend an hour in the store just shopping so I'll wander around, maybe go grab some breakfast at Chick-fil-a (it's right in front of Target), wander some more. But usually they will have at least started marking down by 10:00am at the stores I go to.
  6. Toys went 75% off at the store that always goes on Wednesdays. I was there at 9:30 and there was no activity, I got back at 11 and the shelves were almost bare. Courtsey of a very greedy couple who bought a pallet worth and 5 carts and was still shopping when I got there. They were pulling 4 and 5 of each item and loading up the 3 carts they still had. I'm sure I'll see all of it again on craigslist, ebay or the local flea market.
  7. Can someone please post when you get your 15% off pass for BF? I moved recently and it takes 3 months :eyepoppin for them to update your address. So I probably won't be getting my pass in the mail but I want to be able to talk to customer service and see what they can do.

     

    Edit - Nevermind. It seems people are already getting them.

  8. which store was it?? I live in smithfield....is it worth a trip out for my 3yo dd? thks!!

    It was the new target in Williamsburg by Water Country. I was the only one shopping while I was there but I don't know what will be left now. But I'm pretty sure the stores you listed will go 75 tomorrow and I just went to NN and Hampton yesterday and it looked like they all had the same things. So I wouldn't drive all the way up here but try to hit the ones you listed tomorrow. Good luck!

  9. I don't think it will happen today. It wasn't late last year, it just seemed that way. If go back the last few years and count the number of markdown days after Christmas it has been 3 for a while. So when Christmas hits on a sunday or monday it's only 2 weeks after Christmas when it goes down because they get marked down the week of Christmas, then the next 2 wed/thurs. When Christmas hits later in the week it's 3 weeks later. Just my theory!
