shopping mom Posted November 6, 2008 Posted November 6, 2008 My DD5 got her Easy Bake when she graduated from K5. She uses it about once a week. DH or I supervise but she knows pretty much what to do now. We do not buy the mixes made for the oven. We use the Jiffy mixes or the Betty Crocker (pouch) muffins/brownies. She made brownies for her granddaddy's birthday and he loved them. I have been looking at that cupcake maker/decorater thing. I would consider buying it if I knew regular mixes would work.
SuperMommy Posted November 6, 2008 Posted November 6, 2008 Found an MM today!! :) Just 1 though. Halloween was 75% off tons of candy and costumes!! Got $8 bags for $2. DH and DD are very happy!!
gezzmom70 Posted November 6, 2008 Posted November 6, 2008 as for the easy bake oven, buy a shrinky dink maker instead! that thing is fast, fun for everyone and such fun :) just my pull.I bought one for dd when she was 5. She used it once and hated it. It took forever to cook under that lightbulb, and we both thought the end result tasted gross. So I gave it away and taught her how to bake stuff in the real oven. She is much happier and has gotten really good at it (she likes to make dinner every Saturday night). She loves and still uses her shrinky dink maker. I actually use it sometimes too.

Check out the reviews for the cupcake maker before you buy it. My dd8 really wanted it but the reviews on amazon are horrible. They are saying it doesnt really work. We decided to just get her a real cupcake decorating kit.

bbyboo1323 Posted November 6, 2008 Posted November 6, 2008 I randomly saw a Digital picture frame 6in sitting on a shelf that had a few clearance items on it. Picked it up and saw original price was 99.99 clearanced to 24.99. it wasnt opened or anything. I searched up and down for another but was lucky enough to get that one
Luv2Scrapbook Posted November 6, 2008 Posted November 6, 2008 Anyone have reports of whether the kids' rugs were clearanced at 75% yet?
lzaina Posted November 6, 2008 Posted November 6, 2008 Anyone have reports of whether the kids' rugs were clearanced at 75% yet?Still 50% at ours and there was only one left.
smjrm Posted November 6, 2008 Posted November 6, 2008 (edited) Found a pink Dyson Root 6 (the handheld one) at 75% off today. Regular price was $150, I got it for $37.xx. Strange this was it scanned at regular price (but I saw it at 30% off a couple of weeks ago so that didn't seem right), but when I typed in the DPCI it said "pink Dyson...$37.xx". So of course when the cashier scanned it the regular price came up. I explained and she gave it to me at the lower price. ###072-07-0702 Pink Dyson Root 6 Handheld DC 16 $37.48 (reg $150) http://www.target.com/Dyson-DC16-Root-Vacuum-Pink/dp/B001DJ15T2/sr=1-2/qid=1226011882/ref=sr_1_2/181-5751879-2463414?ie=UTF8&index=target&rh=k%3Adyson%20root%206&page=1 Edited November 6, 2008 by smjrm add link

adewrell Posted November 7, 2008 Posted November 7, 2008 I was at Target this morning and asked about the Halloween going 90% off. I was told that they are not going to do 90%, they are just going to pack it all up. I hope this is store specific and everyone else gets the deals.
amyers12345 Posted November 7, 2008 Posted November 7, 2008 Well, what is it?check post 696, directly beneath your question. we're still at 75% today.
hannahs_momma Posted November 7, 2008 Posted November 7, 2008 My Target was 90% off and i scored because they took 90% off the 75% off prices at the register! I walked out with over 150.00 worth of items for 5 and some change!
donnariley Posted November 7, 2008 Posted November 7, 2008 check post 696, directly beneath your question. we're still at 75% today.thanks, must have missed that. Now I know.
bargaingal2 Posted November 7, 2008 Posted November 7, 2008 Ours in se michigan was still 75% off. One isle both sides with candy and other stuff and then one isle both sides with costumes etc.
debnmark Posted November 7, 2008 Posted November 7, 2008 I used to love Shrinky Dinks. Do they still sell them in stores? I haven't looked, but now that they've been brought up it might be a good gift for lots of kids on my list.
alison p Posted November 7, 2008 Posted November 7, 2008 Hi I just went in hunt of Halloween "junque": I just returned from Scottsdale Pavillions at the 101 and Indian Bend in Scottsdale, AZ, where there is 1/2 of 1 isle left...a little candy, some costumes and some misc weird stuff. Halloween is still 75%. I tried to scan too, but I went to 3 scanners, all "out of service" so I heard the familiar "beep" and asked it to be scanned by the guy with the gun...It came up regular price. ARGH. There were all these women in the Halloween isle totally loading up their carts, so I was afraid, I am missing it... So I picked up a pack of Jones' Soda (the pomeganite one is GOOD!) and went to the checkout lanes. 37 cents...so it is still truly 75% So I put my soda in the truck, and head back into the store. I found the Arizona State University "junque" all 75% where it had been 50% on Tuesday, the last time I looked and did buy a few things (now I need to return a few things with the the old receipt!) There is a lot left...clocks, trash cans, ping pong balls, car flags, and big hanging banners. Also saw a rack of mens clothes 75%, bought a grey pinstripe suit jacket in my husbands size. for 14.xx. I did get the matching pants a few weeks ago when they had one 75%. SO there, another suit for about $25 ..woo hoo... May be tomorrow I will head out again, to buy all the rest of that pomegranite soda...at 90%...but Saturdays are so hard...the DH wil want to know where I am going...and Target is not the answer he will want to hear. But if I dont go, I still did really well at 75%, i was able to get a large $69 gargoyle and a really large and HEAVY tombstone, reg. $79, both from the garden dept, this was earlier in the week of course...
