  1. I understand why you would be upset by him coming into your work. However, I think it's very wrong for all of these other people to be getting involved in this situation. To call the mayor?! Please! I would think that any mayor in his right mind would think twice about making any calls over a matter such as this in an official capacity. It would be construed as an abuse of power. I buy hundreds....ok more like thousands of dollars of items online annually and I have NEVER had ANYTHING negative happen with UPS. Of course this is a lot bigger city than 1900 people so maybe it's a difference in the mentalities of where people live.
  2. Items are received a lot faster than with free super saver shipping. There have been times I've ordered and even received items in 1 day without requesting overnight service. I think that has to do with where one is in respect to their warehouses.
  3. Before I had PRIME, I found myself ordering items that I probably wouldn't have ordered just to get to the $25.00. I have PRIME and I LOVE it. I do shop a lot on Amazon throughout the year and will check there before I order anywhere else. If you are on the fence but you do a lot of online shopping, it's definitely worth getting or at least looking into.
  4. I should've read down the page a little more....
  5. Right now, Target has a coupon in their toy book for 2 mixes with the purchase of the Easy Bake oven. So for $19.99, you get the oven and two mixes (normally $5.99 each).
  6. I do this at Target and TRU. I've never had a problem.
  7. If you have a Big Lots close to you, they always have good deals on stuff. Also check dollar stores, etc. Then plan on being up early on December 26th to go 50% off shopping for Christmas items to be used next year. :) Congratulations on the new apartment.
  8. I see one thing I want. I just don't know how badly I want it to battle the insanity of Best Buy on Black Friday.
  9. My daughter wanted Tumbles and I also showed her Lucky. She is still asking for Tumbles. However, I did end up finding Biscuit for a pretty good price so I bought him for part of her Christmas gift. However, she's 5....she was in love with Butterscotch when he first came out. She was around 3 1/2, I think. I waited until she was a little older to start buying her the more expensive Fur Real animals because they are very expensive and I want them to last her throughout her childhood. HTH
  10. I've had luck with getting rainchecks on items they regularly carry but not on special purchase type items.
  11. Oftentimes companies give extra price breaks to the merchant for special buys like this. This could be a TV they are wanting to discontinue to bring out a more updated model but have an abundant stock of them. It's a better option for them to offer a merchant a price break and quickly reduce their stock. The company benefits because they can then claim a tax break on their corporate taxes.
  12. If you can, be sure to pull up the carpet and padding from the doggie affected areas and treat the sub-floor. Generally if you mop the sub-floor with bleach water, you will be able to get any lingering smells out of it and avoid further mishaps once the new carpet is installed.
  13. Nice to see you are so modest about it too.
  14. You may want to sign up on their web-site. They would keep you updated on any activities like this.
  15. I got my book in the mail a few days ago.
  16. I make quiche, hash browns, fruit and croissants every year. I have friends and family that come over for brunch and we exhange gifts at my house.
  17. I make my Christmas list and treat it like a Bible. I also shop (mainly clearance) all year long. I shopped A LOT at the Target toy sale last year. I spent around $400-$500 when toys were 75% off. That's what I've used for birthday gifts all year and now will use for Christmas gifts. I just need to buy my daughter's 'Santa' gifts and a few giftcards and I'm done. I have a lot of kiddos on my list so the toy sale really helped me out.
  18. Most of my DD's clothes come from The Children's Place. I also buy at Target. I just found out that a Gymboree outlet store opened up in my favorite outlet mall so I will look there. I'm too cheap to shop at the regular Gymboree store. I've also bought her things from Mervyn's but they are going out of business. However, since that is the case, I plan on seeing if they have worthwhile items and if so, I will stock up.
  19. And we thought the presidential election was intense.
  20. dyk Taking off my fancy pants and tossing them in them in the corner so I can vote.
  21. dyk GOOOOOOO GRASSYYYYYYY!!!!!!!!!!!!! dyk She did get the word out. dyk And she pinky swear promises to wear her tee everyday so that's even more getting out the word.
  22. I don't ever recall seeing Disney movies for very cheap prices. Normally they are in the $15-$20 range.
  23. What's so important about having the actual toy book in hard copy form when you can #1, look at it online and #2, print the coupons online too? Personally, I think this is great way for Target to save an money and save trees while they are at it.
