shopping mom Posted September 29, 2006 Posted September 29, 2006 I have two little ones so I got them those new pillow things that you stuff a regular pillow in to and they are a character, one power ranger, one cinderella. Barbie and the 12 dancing princess dolls, power rangers, and some GBA games.I saw those pillow things today and they are cute. Did you find them on sale somewhere?
Mommyof2 Posted September 29, 2006 Posted September 29, 2006 All I've bought so far is the TMX Elmo for my DS who is 18 months. I haven't got anything for my DD yet. But we're going to be moving across the country a month before Xmas, so I'm not sure I want to buy anything now and have to travel with it!
Stowasser Posted September 29, 2006 Posted September 29, 2006 Here it is at amazon.com. http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000809OUO/ref=pd_rvi_gw_1/002-2155795-1394442?ie=UTF8 I don't know how much they are going for now, but I paid $15 last year. It's $9.99 at amazon and if you find more items to buy to make your total over $25 you'll get free shipping. I think I have one of these somewhere, I got it on clearance at Target? I may have just left it behind since the kids don't play the plug/plays all that often but I am not one to leave things behind so its in the garage somewhere. They were like 1.74 or something like that.
Stowasser Posted September 29, 2006 Posted September 29, 2006 Well, I have gotten the kids the Disney Mix Sticks (sale at Disney.com was $39.99 or $29.99 with a $20 giftcard), Disney Speakers for the Mix sticks, LaserTag 4 different sets, CD's, lots of clothing, Pixtar with games (or whatever they are it plays), jewelry, ton of stocking stuffers (Target when $1 bin went clearanced), have some other things that I have stashed from clearance shopping but can't remember. I am just moving everything over to my parents house who winter in Florida so that I can see what I have and whats going to come up on their list. But seeing most people here with a good start on their shopping, glad I am not the only one who started soon after Christmas last year...LOL Oh, got alot of Tinkerbell items for my daughter who is going through that phase right now.
conj Posted September 29, 2006 Posted September 29, 2006 Ok, this is a bit off topic (just barely) but we celebrate hannukah in our house, and I just started making up the list of the things I had gathered for the kids... Hannukah is not a major gift giving holiday - and we do just trinket gifts for the most part. For DD 8: (will turn 9 during hannukah) A CARS license plate for her bike a felt color-it poster a birthstone necklace 2 gameboy videos a sticky pad with her initial on it a 3/4 sleeve shirt with flowers, in her favorite color For DS 6: A Cars license plate for his bike a spyro school kit a batman winter jacket a sticky pad with his initial on it a book of dinosaur stickers & a strechy toy dino a fantastic 4 metal lunchbox 2 ninja turtles action figures a dragonball Z action figure we also have to talk to santa... he brings gifts to papa's house... I think DS will be getting a GBA, but I have no idea what DD will be getting.

ms_mckenna Posted October 2, 2006 Posted October 2, 2006 Wow I have done nothing lol. With the dance/bday party and the trip I doubt I will do much if any shopping before the PS3 comes out. And that one is only if I can get it on the release date ... not buying one on Ebay .
Gloey Posted October 3, 2006 Posted October 3, 2006 For my granddaughter I got the Fisher price camera, a vtech laptop, the Disney fairy play set with another room and some fairies and the Study Buddy play and learn bear. I want to get the My Little Pony castle and maybe a doll and stroller. I'm running out of money fast!
sns128 Posted October 3, 2006 Posted October 3, 2006 I have nothing for Christmas yet. I have both my kids and my three nieces and nephews birthday all before Christmas (starting this month!) so I probably won't have much before BF set aside for Christmas. Why oh why did my sister in law and I have to have our kids all at the end of the year.
ms_mckenna Posted October 3, 2006 Posted October 3, 2006 I got the Fisher price cameraI saw those on TV they look so cool. It's the digital one that is indistructable right? I wish they owuld have those when my kids were little!

I pre-ordered Cars for him from familyvideo.com, as a new member there is a code to get $5 off, standard shipping is $.99, so my final price was $11 and change. Got Super Mario Strikers for both kids at Circuit City for $24 for Game Cube. For dd, she is a little older and her stuff is more expensive and not really on sale.
