KC-Traderbear Posted January 15, 2008 Share Posted January 15, 2008 Does anyone have any experience with the Fisher Price Digital Arts and Crafts Desk that came out for Christmas? I am having a bugger of a time getting that thing downloaded and working properly. I don't want to get into all the specifics here on this forum, but with all the toy bargain shoppers out here, I just wondered if anyone has had any problems; or knows of a good website or place to go to find out how to get this product working properly? From the limited info I can find, I am not the only one who is having a terrible time working through the bugs on this. I just wondered if anyone on this forum has been through the problems and come out the other side (and is willing to share how they did it!)

This was like a giant puzzle. Then I filled a large-ish Amazon box for each kid's birthday, and a box each for valentines, easter, party favor stuff and "unspoiled goods" (the kids weren't with me when I bought these, so they are safe for Santa to drop off). Two more big amazon boxes for friend/cousin birthdays, and that is after I sorted out 2 big bags of stuff for Feb. parties. Oh, and a shelf for the 3 Shake 'n go tracks - they are to big for boxes. Forget closets! This stuff needs to go to the garage. It took me 2 hours to haul this stuff from my bedroom to the garage and sort it out. I thought I had overbought, but I think I'm o.k. I only have 2 things each for my kids for next christmas. I am done with the spring birthday, but I only got a couple things for the fall birthdays. I can still (hopefully) get that thing they really want more than anything else in the world when birthdays get closer. I'm thinking July clearance!

BoulderChick Posted January 15, 2008 Share Posted January 15, 2008 The room in my basement is so full it is crazy, don't feel bad, I have all the holidays and birthdays done and all of their friends birthdays done. My husband understands but I think he wants me to stop now, I'm not sure if i'm gonna tell him about all the stuff I got today at target and JC pennys. But with 3 kids when everyone is going crazy during the holidays, I'll be able to sit back and relax and bake cookies!:)[/QUOTE] When the holidays roll around it can be soo difficult to just spend time with your loved ones. Shopping can be draining when you have a bunch of people to shop for and when you are worrying about your budget. I'm sure with preparing for the holidays early, you will be less stressed. I know I am. Most of the stuff I picked up is for the Angel Trees for next year. We gave to 3 children this Christmas and with the toy clearence and shopping through out the year we will be able to give gifts to soo many more children. We always give clothing, books and things they will need through out the year as well as a toy. Being able to spend less on the toys and get great toys, allows me to spend more on the things they need. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fluffkin79 Posted January 15, 2008 Share Posted January 15, 2008 Does anyone know where to find more books for the projector thing? Dora came with mine, and I found the Pooh book, but I would like more. Are these only around for Christmas '07? Has anyone seen them before? I am afraid that they will be gone forever and we will only have the 2 books. Seems like a better investment if we have more books to go with this. I see wal-mart clearancing the projectors, too. They didn't seem to have any books though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hiskin Posted January 15, 2008 Share Posted January 15, 2008 I walked into my target and just happened to see if they had any toys left they had tons. Must of put out more. They didn't have any pianos, thomas holiday and other stuff last week and had them all today. I was able to get the piano plus found one cartridge. They had 3 pianos left and 10 guitars plus tons of stuff. They haven't set the rest of toys so they are all over the place. I was soooo excited that I forgot to buy half the stuff I needed for the groceries. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kristie4 Posted January 15, 2008 Share Posted January 15, 2008 i don't remember the regular price but i found these on clearance for $0.59. When the cashier asked me how much I mumbled .99? She was saying $4, $2.99? Then she just put in 1.75. Oh well, but that was fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For everyone who hasn't done it, it REALLY helps if you at least put your state or city & state in your profile so everyone can see it. They put out some more of the Thomas Holiday ones here too. I was surprised since those cleared with Christmas. They also raised the price from Christmas clearance to 45% off the regular price. weird.

My daughter got The FISHER PRICE DIGITAL ARTS AND CRAFTS DESK over Thanksgiving, when she was visiting her father in California. Worked just fine on his computer. Brings it to kansas, and i can't get it to work on mine. I have called tech help twice, and was told different things. End result? I was told that my computer needs to be looked at. When my daughter tries to draw with it, we get 3 or more erratic lines across the page. I really don't believe my computer has issues, so i really don't know!

ellen zachariia Posted January 15, 2008 Share Posted January 15, 2008 I was at target today in Lantana, Fl. waiting for precriptions and here is what I found: 1. Rose Art Smart EAsal. The one one that folds in the bage 9.998 75% off 2. Bath sets for 2.48 50% off found Barbie, Thomas the tank engine, curious george, Strawberry shortcake, two from crayola, and pirated of the carribbean 3. Michael Graves wide mouth tea kettle for 6.24 75% ( needed one really , really badly) 4. Two pack of planter nuts one mixed nuts and one cashews for 1.48. These must of been from X-mas cause they had a winter scene but they are good through 2009 so who cares. 5. a six pack of nestle green tea splash beverage which I think is flavored water for 1.68. Have never tried before but for the price what the heck. They also had a ton of table top easels for 4.98. But I went the 9.98 full easel to use outside. because it also came with the roll of paper and a set of washable markers. I was really surprised because they had a whole aisle of 75% toys left and the 9.98 easel was among those toys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

andybrooke Posted January 15, 2008 Share Posted January 15, 2008 When do you think Global Bazaar will go 50%? 75%? Needing some dining chairs, but don't want to pay full price.I may be wrong, but I remember shopping the Global Bazaar with my tax refund last year. I bought stuff at 75% off. It could have been right after valentines day as the dollar spot was 75% off at that time as well. So im thinking maybe the 2nd week of Feb?
