No plans to go anywhere, I'm all shopped out. If I "happen" to get to Target, fine, if not, that' s OK, too.

I'm not going anywhere, since I don't have anywhere to shop! LOL! Hubby says it's one of the best things about living on a small island in Alaska. No shopping, means I don't spend money! Doesn't he realize though that after 3 years of this, I'll be making up for lost shopping time when we eventually get back down into the 'real world'! LOL!

Holly - do you do a lot of online shopping? I do a lot more of that nowadays.....and would think that's how I'd get my fix in a situation such as yours.....unless the shipping to Alaska is out of this world.....that would stink! I have to work Wednesday, but even if I did not, I'd be waiting awhile for the deeper price cuts to take effect. cj/

I am pretty much shopped out too. I plan on staying home all week and playing with my 4 kids, etc. Just enjoying life with them as they are all growing up so fast! May have to take a few things back to stores that may or may not fit the girls, but that's about it. No more spending that's for sure!

No where in particular. I am just excited to get to go shopping with my mom and my DD The last couple years we were not able to. My mom lives in a different state and so we got to go visit. We will probably start at Target, but I am not looking for anything really. We plan our trip on where we want to be at lunch time!!!! |

Since I have been running around like a chicken with my head cut off the last few days, I'm not sure I want to go out Wednesday morning. But if I do, it will be to Target and Walgreen's, which are within 2.5 miles of my home. Dh is heading to Wal-Mart (10 miles away) to stock up on wrapping paper, bows, gift tags, etc.

I probably do about 90% of our shopping on-line. Most places I order from are pretty good on shipping costs but there are a few companies who seem to think that it's okay to charge 3 - 4 times the normal rates to ship to us. I don't think they realize we get our mail just like everyone else. ![]() I was so disappointed a few months ago when I tried to order a shirt for my daughter. She is a HUGE fan of the show House. Well they were doing a charity thing where you could buy a t-shirt and the proceeds went to a charity. I thought "cool idea", it will be a win-win....buy the t-shirt for DD (it was going to be a Christmas present) and the money went to a charity. Well guess what....the t-shirt was $19.99 but because we live in Alaska....they wanted to charge $24.99 just to ship it to us! Well, DD never did get the t-shirt....I wrote an email from the company and they basically told me to take it or leave it. Well.........I left it.

To answer the original question, I'll be making a run to Walmart but not until they go deeper discount (75%) because I too need to restock on Christmas paper, bows, and Christmas lights. |

I was thinking of heading to Walmart, DS didn't get one thing he wanted and he has a bunch of gift cards to use, so I told him maybe we'd go this week. I do need some gift boxes also and maybe some wrapping paper, but nothing I am rushing out for this year, especially with 2 kids to bring along.

Looks like I'll hit Target after all.....to return the Rip-Stik and Xbox 360 Need for Speed Pro Street (but rebuy at today's price of $37 - can't resist $13 in savings )cj/
