siczlo Posted December 26, 2007 Share Posted December 26, 2007 I love Amazon. What's better than sitting in your toasty warm P.J.'s, with a cup of coffee, or a beer at 1 AM for a great deal!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kayakmom Posted December 26, 2007 Share Posted December 26, 2007 We should look at our Amazon thread from 12/10 and see how much we contributed to those sales, lol.
