morning.

we saw the village people yesterday. that was fun. concert was well-attended, almost of the seats were occupied. final song was YMCA and learned the proper way to do the M is to have your hands in front of your chest w/ your elbows up, not the mickey mouse ears over your head. checked wikipedia after and 2 of the 6 are original band members, the indian and the army guy. the indian was wearing cut-out pants w/ beaded flaps over the front and back so whenever he turned quickly you could see his butt. the concert was for 18 and over but saw at least 2 kids there.

spoiler alert- saw the dark knight rises last wk. special effects are amazing. thought the premise of the movie was too drawn out. there is no way a million or so people in a city could be confined to an island for 5 months. just the logistics of food, waste management, etc wouldn't work. that was so incredibly improbable. i was surprised the movie was in imax but not 3D. you definitely need to see the previous 2 movies to understand what is going on in this third movie. i thought i'd seen all of them but maybe i saw the first one too long ago to be able to connect the dots.

it was better than spiderman that i saw a few wks ago. i thought spiderman dragged too much. special effects were good too but not as effective as batman. i definitely need to bone up on story lines b4 i go see these types of movies. i read all these comics over 35 yrs ago and just don't remember them anymore. didn't know according to the original comic that peter parker had a major girlfriend b4 mj.

what's good this wk for bts across the board besides free but beeping scotch tape at target?

i know bic witeout is .50 at staples this wk and there is a 1.00/2 ip here so just tax for me. i use witeout to cover prices on gifts but bff's little sneaky dd told me she scratches off the witeout, so now i first black it out w/ pen or sharpie then use the witeout.

An easy way to tell is to look at the leather creed patch inside the bag. The last set of numbers that start with an F are made for factory bags.

Don't get me wrong. There are lots of mmf bags that are very good quality.
Thanks HD that is very good info to have. It doesn't matter to me whether they are outlet or store. Well, not yet anyways. I will find out soon enough how well they hold up. If they don't live up to my expectations I will just go back to my cheapies. lol I have the mindset that if you don't have the money to 'waste' on such items then don't buy it. Cause well you just never know how they will live up to expectations. KWIM?

I bought my DD a pair of Toms this weekend, yes they were $60 but we have several pair and know the quality and such and are willing to spend the money on those verses some of the knockoff brands. It is just a personal preference for everyone. If we couldn't afford them we would definately try the others. But thankfully right now we have that choice.

Does anyone have any opinion on the New Leappad that is out? I am thinking of getting them for my niece/nephew for christmas. Are they worth the $. They are 4 and 5yrs. They want a laptop or Ipod touch but..LOL I know they are not ready to take care of those so figured this would be a better option. Thanks for any info.

BTW..Good Morning! Big Grin

I have a slightly target-related Question...searched a few threads and can't find info.

Did anybody do the True North snack rebate?
I was wondering what the $5 coupon option gets you?
I was hoping it was free products, but I suppose it's just five $1 off MQ.

One other Coach thing and I will cease. Smilie Coach does stand behind their products. If anything goes wrong with your bag take it back to a Coach store and have them send it off for repairs or replacement. No charge if it is something other than normal wear. Like stitching gets loose or something breads.

Wait ...staples takes mqs? I'm so late to this trying to find the equivalent at T for a PM Facepalm. I was thinking ppl wanted to get them at T to use the q but I guess it was for convenience of not having to shop at another store.

occasionally staples can be a decent source for toilet paper and paper towels w/ mq's like bounty basic. i bought angel soft w/ q a few months ago. as always, some cashiers are just ignorant. they do take mq's, they just have to know how to key them in. so if they say no, tell them you know for a fact staples takes mq's and they need to find somebody or call another store or call corporate and ask them how to do it.

This part just makes me laugh - I have a 5 and 6-year old and they would never think to ask for a laptop or an ipod touch. laugh out loud As far as the LeapPad goes, every Leap Frog item we have owned has worked great, and been of excellent quality, so I would imagine the same would be for that. We have the Leapster Explorer, Tag reader, Tag Jr., plus all varieties of their fridge toys, the alphabet caterpillar, etc. Other than frequent battery changes, they have all worked very, very well.

Do the MQs scan, or do they have to manually input them? The one time I used MQs at Staples, it seems it didn't scan, so they had to put them in manually and it was a little bit of a PITB. But I saw those deals in the weekly ad, so I definitely plan on trying them out. We have VBS all this week at our church, though, and so my shopping time will be even shorter than usual!

Double check for the pilot mq. I almost missed it as the highlighters are only mentioned in the language and not pictured:
Save $1 on any 2-pack (or larger) of Bottle 2 Pen (P2P) or FriXion erasable pens or highlighters (exp 9/30)

Thanks I'll give it a try today....and it is right next door to a T as well as a 2min walk to SR Wink (but since we pass and have to visit the Petsmart ...it will take about 30min to get to SR LMAO)

Thanks Flug,

Yes I know. Now I have to say that I am sure it is because grandma lets them just play with her ipod/laptop and they think it is 'fun'. But there is no way I would get them something like that. So figured 'maybe' the leappad would be something that they would be able to master AND take the wear and tear that I am sure it will endure.
I bought my own kids almost every leapfrog item available when they were little and they loved them. However that was almost 10yrs ago. So wanted to make sure this leappad was as cool/good as it looked.

I have decided to go with 1 gift for each this year and that is it. So trying to find something nice that they can perhaps get some use out of. But really didn't want to pay the money for something that they will play with one or two times and not have the desire to touch again. Which very well may be the case anyways but..lol

I have come to determine Photos101 must have been separated at birth. Read on.
Quote from Photos101 :
Spent yesterday shopping the outside outlet mall in 105* weather EEK!.
Us, too.
Quote from Photos101 :
For those of you with Coach purses PLEASE tell me they are worth the $$.I have had my current purse for about a year. I think I paid about $15 That Coach outlet is really hard to pass up. They were having an amazing sale!!
Yes. All that, too. I buy 1 purse, I carry it until that thing wears out.
Quote from Photos101 :
A nice 3 hr drive is a good way to get them to converse with you.
Ditto, although I am 3 hrs coming from the other direction (south).
Quote from Photos101 :
I miss sding but have been so wrapped up in that crazy Buy/Sale/Trade FB site I joined.I need to get back to SDing to get some stuff we actually can use.
I have become wrapped up in that, too. I sell mostly stuff from the house, since I don't really have a stockpile anymore, due to no shopping for the summer.
Quote from Photos101 :
See..I KNEW I should have came here for some insight before I went shopping. LOL You all have all the good info.
I actually didn't plan to buy one, let alone 2. But those sale prices were just too good to pass up.
Agreed.

Quote from Photos101 :
I got the Coach Penelope Linen Signature Multicolor Carryall and Coach Kahki Signature Cross Body Small Messenger.
I got the Gal Sig NS Zip Tote & the Cht Pkt Tote (don't know what that translates to). My #1 requirement: it must fit my iPad LMAO

Quote from Photos101 :
It was so hard to pick and there were soo many people buying (took me about 30min just to decide). but wanted one that would match just about everything I had.
OMG, what a crowded mess. I think I took an hour, just a sweating. I was with 6'5" & 6'6" if you saw those 2 guys w/ their arms loaded w/ purses - they were mine. (6'8" wouldn't be caught dead in a purse store, but he was mine, too)
Quote from Photos101 :
I have to say that I don't think that I could EVER see myself paying full price for one, no matter how awesome they are. I am much too cheap for that, so I feel really lucky to have found a really good deal on them.
LOL, yep. Separated at birth. Must've been.
Quote from Photos101 :
My wonderful DH was the one to suggest just getting them both,
I had so much trouble choosing, DH suggested 2. I jumped on it.
Quote from Photos101 :
Side note...I couldn't bring myself to get a wallet too. They were almost as much as the purses. OMG
EXACTLY!! If I like the quality of the purses, I WILL get a wallet. But the wallet was only $10 less than the purse.OMG
Quote from Photos101 :
The two I bought were originally $328 and $258. I just could not imagine paying that for a bag! I don't care how awesome they are. No offense to anyone who does, that is just not something I would do.
I got $328 & $348. Never, ever, ever would I pay that for a purse. Maybe a car. j/k laugh out loud I am not a purse snob (or anything else). What I get at TJ Maxx is fine. Never look at the name. Just has to be a neutral color, & the right size.
Quote from Photos101 :
We have went to this outlet mall several times a year for over 15yrs and I never once even thought of going in to shop. Just figured that I would never be able to afford or have the desire to pay that for one. lol But after reading such good reviews and how much ppl love them, I figured I needed to take a look. Especially, since I seem to carry the same bag for years with no problem/desire to change it just cause of fashion. Does that make sense? lol
We've been going since there was only the Red Roof (25 yrs??). I have actually been in Coach once. I've heard so much ab Coach here, this year for my birthday (soon), I said "I want a Coach" so there we were. And I meant to get only 1.

Quote from Photos101 :
It doesn't matter to me whether they are outlet or store. I will find out soon enough how well they hold up. If they don't live up to my expectations I will just go back to my cheapies.
Ditto. Thought it funny how alike we & our experience was. Smilie
