  1. My kids always came back here to sleep until they got married or moved in with someone. I still have a 16 year old at home and he gets twice the presents as they do since he is so young. I still spend a lot on my other 2 and they always came here by 10 anyway to open their presents before going to my moms next door for dinner.
  2. I have never paid for prime. I have quite a few amazon accounts and I just get a free prime trial on one and send an invite to my main account. Every 13 months you can get another trial, so I just keep moving to a different account. When it expires I don't sign up for a new one until i need something from amazon. Just signed up a new one last week that will get me through my majority of shopping
  3. He made a mistake when saying the kindle hd was 199 . The new kindle hd is only 139, so I would still buy from amazon and not best buy as I save about 8.00 in tax. plus I have the satisfaction of dealing with amazon and not best buy in the beginning if I hve problems. He also said it was last years model, which I found last year, most stores had an old model and let you believe it was the newest one. Ifit's last years model, it is only worth 99 now.
  4. Teh fires are not ereaders and do not claim to be. They are a tablet with a reading app on it. Not the same at all. They will always have the ereaders available.
  5. For as long as I can remember they have handed out tiny disney snowglobes until they ran out. I have most all of mine.
  6. It wasnt' a hacker. They said it was a technical mistake. Many things were marked up to 356, lots of legos, monster high dollls. Things weren't at black friday prices, they were 90% off and more. A 150.00 book set was 3.05. Most all the books were 3.05. I got the cancellation email today with the 10.00 gift card, but on online deals post about this whole thing, many people picked their items up immediately in store.
  7. I heard that the buttons were a big bust so no buttons. People wanted the snowglobes so they are back. People want things back the way they used to be.
  8. Actually it is not wednesday thru sunday, it's wednesday thru saturday. Jut looked
  9. It's actually WEDNESDAY start date.
  10. I needed a Denali 2 years ago. I searched and searched. I discovered it's the most pirated coat there is. If you find a place, go on north face.com and look at their dealers and make sure they are on the list. I bought mine from sunnysports.com. They have a retail store in new york and if you call and ask for an instore sale, you get it cheaper. I paid 90 for mine.
  11. some families make this a tradition. I buy 90% of my stuff online before black friday for less money, so I don't do it. My mom refuses to go before Friday morning, so I go and listen to her complain that all teh good stuff is gone. OF COURSE ITS GONE> She wouldn't go when they opened . Here where I live the people without families usually do the holidays first, and they get time and a half so reallly needy employees take full advantage of hte extra money.
  12. I got a flyer today that says 10 off 10 and 10 off 25 inside. IT's 2 separate coupons, Huge sales going on for 4 days.
  13. Stable ended up being 25, plus I had 11.00 left of promotional credit . by the time I paid it was sold out.
  14. It's probably coming from Hong Kong, since it's a 3rd party seller and so cheap. I don't ever buy from anyone but amazon or amazon fulfilled. The watch listed is the same way.
  15. Just wanted to make a correction to above post. This is NOT 1.59 WITH PRIME. It is not sold by amazon and is not eligible for prime. That's the price the 3rd party seller is charging and free shipping.
  16. I would have liked one if they had been childrens size, but the reviews said it was very large and definitely not for a child.
  17. The stable is already at 29.99 which is what I paid for it at Walmart. I wonder if they will go much lower than that to justify my returning the one I have.
  18. It wasn't one day, it expired yesterday. Only certain customers were eligible. Last week there was another email sent to some customers, They pick and choose.
  19. You can also just open a new account and get a free prime trial. I have 5 accounts, ONe for my son, one for me, one for my grandkids tablets, etc. I just get a free prime trial on the one available currently and send a free invite to m y main account. I haven't paid for prime in years.
  20. STockings are HUGE here and I hang mine on nails in the doorway. Our kids can get their stocking anytime they want, but have to wait until about 5 to wake us up. Usually minutes after I fill it, they are picked up. I could never put toothbrushes in one. It just amazes me how many do. In our house when I was young, it was an apple , orange and some nuts, then little toys. I put a dvd in my kids, wallet, chapstick sometimes, anything I can find that is little and they are literally bulging . Always put a candy cane in the top,. 3 or 4 boxes of candy. My youngest likes crabby patties, he always gets them.
  21. My grandduaghter is 1 also. I bought her the Little People Klip Klop stable, She has been playing with the laugh and learn stuff a long time and loves it also. She has a Crocodile toy that she loves. It has moving blocks on top of it. Last year I bought her Roper cowboy boots as we ride horses. HTey are just now fitting. She is also getting new cowgirl outfit, jewelry. which won't work for a boy.
  22. I have US Cellular. You used to have to have a contract when we signed up 11 years ago, but now on the Belief plan there are no contracts. I haven't had a contract in 4 years.
  23. I got mine at Kmart after xmas . it was a Martha Stewart tree and 75% off. It was a 300 tree for 75. I love it. It is very full and beautiful. It is on a rotating stand but I can't use that feature due to it being a tight fit in my living room. My eyes were bigger than they should have been. It is a 7.5 foot tree
  24. The fire hd excellent parental controls, although I am not a believer in them. It's just asking the kids to try and work around it, plus I don't censor my kids. I'm thinking of getting myself one. I did buy my grandkids Pandigitals last year, as they were 5 and 7, but one quit after 3 months. SInce they had gone out of business, luckily I had extra warranty and took the cash and bought a cheap one off of Buy.com. It is still working fine, but for my immediate family, I buy nothing but Fires.
  25. Joann's never excludes items as long as they are regular price. I shop there frequently and even take 2 or 3 flyers along withe the one I get in teh mail and buy tons of stuff. I have 50 and 60% off coupons, plus a vip card which gives 10% more off unless they have a 25% off total purchase coupon. You can use that one on top of the individual ones.
