I really like this Disney commercial from 2006

Disney themed ornaments, mostly the ones bought at Disneyland. My new collection is snowflakes. I'm doing a tree in the master bedroom this year all in snowflake ornaments.

I don't take my kids, they stay home with their dad. But I have to agree with the quote here.

I get up early and go get the papers. While I'm out I'll grab a Gingerbread latte from Starbucks. Go home and sort through the ads. Then I start making a list and plan for the next day. Also I watch for any sales that start online ahead of time so I can avoid certain stores. I'm not big on Thanksgiving Day so it's more like Black Friday Eve for me. This year my parents are visiting so I don't know how it's all going to go. I don't think they'll appreciate me hiding and scanning ads instead of entertaining them.

Funny story about karma - Last BF I wanted to go to Sports Authority when they opened to get one of the gift cards they were handing out. First 100 shoppers got anywhere between $10 - $300. When I pulled into the parking space there was this car with two young men in it that pulled in beside me. We were walking quickly to get in line and I got there before they did. However they both stepped in front of me and jumped in line ahead. Rude but I didn't care since there was way less than 100 people in line and I knew I would still get a gift card. So we go in the store and we get our cards. Well what do you know I got the $300 one! So I made sure when I called my husband to say I had won $300 to say it loud enough that those two young men heard me. The look on their faces was all I needed to erase their less than kind behavior earlier. Had they not done what they did - they would have won $300. Karma, sweet karma!

Where The Wild Things Are

THANK YOU!!! Thank you, see you there!

Call for sure. My husband sent me flowers one year while I was away and out of the two dozen I'd say 1/2 were already wilting by the time I got them! They refunded his money right away. Good luck!

This is so true. I always believe the cat/kitten picks YOU not the other way around. Both times I adopted it worked out that way. :)

Wow, your shelters are so much better than mine here! We just adopted the most adorable kitten but we had to pay for his neutering and shots. Also he picked up ring worm at the shelter and we're out about $200 so far in treating that! We didn't know he had it since it takes a couple weeks to show up. What a mess! I'm glad we kept him away from our other cat when we first brought him home.

They hand out cards from $10 to $300 to the first 100 customers. You have to spend it that day. I got $300

According to the info I got it was Friday only. Maybe trying calling your B&BW store though to verify. Good luck!!!

They didn't have the ones he wanted but did have the deluxe model which is about $100 more expensive. They sold him the deluxe ones for less than the cheaper model, so he got a good deal there. Office Depot Sandisk Ultra II 4GB CF, $14.99 4x6 photo paper, B1G2 That's all I think so far. It was a good day!

I was at ours around 11:30AM and they still had plenty of them left. I was happy to see they still had them since I figured I'd missed it.

I went in for the Buy 1 get 1 1/2 off for socks. I ended up getting the $300 Bonus Bucks! So we're going back later to get Hubby a weight bench and set of weights and a new mini trampoline for my son!

Not going to sleep here either. The online shopping I'm doing, the stores are coming on at such staggered times that I have no chance to sleep. Then it's off to the stores!

Done! The items I wanted previously said "in store only" but in fact they were available online too. Not hot items I guess but important to me! 2 hooded towels and a snowflake plush throw blanket! I get those same things every year it seems!!

I've been using Chi for over 4 years now. It works really well at straightening my very curly hair. That's a good price on it too. When I bought mine several years ago it was around $120.

Mine seem that way too. Shame since for the past two years I've bought the same items online and this year it's saying in store only.
