Mariah (my daughter) gave me good ideas where to shop for her for Christmas . . . oh wait, she's expecting, guess not after all, they don't have maternity at those stores. Kids have been great for her. She has found out why I didn't buy for myself when she was growing up, the kids get it all. I shop any where that has sales, the prices are still too high even then. I am also starting to sew for myself again. Tired of trying to pick out seams to tailor clothes to fit my voluptuous figure . . .and hopefully will need to take them up over the next few months.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7260216734032540750.post-74726237818278785742008-09-11T07:09:00.000-07:002008-09-11T07:09:00.000-07:00Was that a picture from Halloween?

Do you know about them? Even in this recession stores are selling out of them faster than they can get them in and they cost at least $16 each!!! They are the latest "green accessory" that everyone wants and is actually useful. I sucked it up and bought one for all 4 of the kids and myself and I have to say I haven't regretted it...they're great. I've given them as gifts to family members too and all have loved them. Check it out.

So here's my research data for ya.<BR/>Kids: Carter's for "nice" clothes. Stains come out easier too.<BR/>Wal Mart is banned, but I can't beat shirts and shorts for 3.50...brand new. And, when they end up in a huge pit of mud, etc. I don't get too upset. Boys will be boys. <BR/>JC Penny has cute Easter suits for boys every year.<BR/>Husband: I have no idea he shows up with new clothes every now and then and they look good on him, so I just say good job.<BR/>Mama: Marshalls, Dress Barn, Eddie Bauer (tall shirts) Anne Taylor loft, every now and then Talbots has something nice.Mariahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02331674103036940778noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7260216734032540750.post-83539858533998954062008-09-10T14:52:00.000-07:002008-09-10T14:52:00.000-07:00World Market and Kohl's.World Market and Kohl's.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7260216734032540750.post-18093304383702639452008-09-10T14:51:00.000-07:002008-09-10T14:51:00.000-07:00Daleen -- you better get all the Limited Too you c...Daleen -- you better get all the Limited Too you can.

Yum!! Instead of making individual cookies, I made them in a bar pan & let me tell ya - way good and so easy to make. They come out thick & soft & delicious and are usually gone the same day I make them.<BR/><BR/>As far as the HOT, NOW place to shop - hmmm - I gotta say Target (even though you banned it) - why? quick, easy, reasonably-priced, buy-clothes-on-sale-for-5-buck-or-less, plop-your-kids-in-a-shopping cart, close-to-home kind of place. I like Old Navy & Marshalls too. I rarely find myself at the mall.

The difference is that many find themselves in the same position not by choice but due to extenuating circumstances. said another way, the paycheck just doesn't seem to be covering increasing costs. Anyhow, good financial discipline is always a good recipe against recession. My job is to observe the masses in a detached, amoral way and I find it truly fascinating. Good for you in having discipline -- i think America got itself in this shape because it lacked it.Jonathan Waitehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13482597194728524742noreply@blogger.com
