I already have a nice stockpile of diapers for the next baby, they are stored down at my dad's house as I only have so much room.

My 2nd bathroom tub/shower ceiling is slanted so we dont use it to shower, I have my Paper towels, toilet paper and diapers in there!

I want more than 1 baby, but hubby says 1 more and thats it, I am going to just going ot have twins, lol. My hubby said he will call and make the appt for the snip, he said he is getting to old for this stuff.

ok now we'll have to have a playdate so your hubby can con mine into the snip.

I do think I'm going to start on that now since having such a hard time finding easy ups. more I buy, closer I get to my lego GC with GTG points!! What are you getting with your GTG points??

Dora is a good idea, I can find something Dora related for $15 no prob

She'll probably love it. This girl is a tomboy, maybe I'll get her one of the diego rescue sets or something. See this is why I don't stockpile too many gifts, what I have never works and always have to buy something else anyway.

Get a tote and open all your scotchbrites and dump em in. Saves a ton of room.

As for the 3 yr old girl, dress up clothes and the shopping cart/play food are great ideas. My DD just turned 4 and she got a shopping cart for her 3rd xmas and still loves playing it. Crayola outside stuff is good too. Sidewalk chalk, bubbles, a play cash register...

All good ideas, will have to hit target.

they are having pony rides. whatever happened to simple kids parties

I'm allergic to horses, may have to have DH take the kid and I hit target with steph. that sounds like a better plan

Aren't all toys going on clearance soon? I remember when I first started on here everyone talking about a July toy clearance that was as good as the Jan one.

Someone mentioned that they used the gallon sized handivac bags to store the quart sized ones...it worked great. You can fit like four or five boxes (or more) of the quart sized bags in one gallon bag...takes up 1/4 of the space the boxes do.

I did that with all those hefty travel size ones until I stopped getting them as the beeping was annoying. The ziplocs are so much better, no beeps. OK must go write out a run and get to bed, DS has been waking up earlier and earlier

Hey guys, newbie here with a question....

What is the best way for me to organize my qs? How many dividers should I own? I have 2 folders that I bring to the stores and I find myself into too many sections and spending too much time looking for qs in the aisle!

Help!

Does anyone know off-hand who the OP was of the Pedigree sample deal at Kmart? I'm too lazy to search for it. Embarrassment But I owe them mad reps!!!

I've been leaving my inserts whole & just cutting out the ones I needed/wanted. So I used Taylortown to find the dates of the Pedigree Qs, and from the past few months inserts I was able to come up with 20+ Qs!

I almost didn't find the samples... searched up & down the pet aisle, had given up and gone to check out the clearance toy section (nothing worth buying), was about to leave when I went down the pet aisle one last time.... and found them out past the endcap, sitting on the floor next to the big stacks of Pedigree dog food! Yahoo!

I grabbed 16 this time... used all the $1.50 I had, then the rest $1. Also grabbed 4 Sunsilk trials ($0.99 each/used 2 $1.50 & 2 $1 MFQs) and 2 Buddies (2 $1 MFQ). Since I now had mad overage, I could go shopping for DH. Evillaugh It was his b-day today, and of course Father's Day tomorrow. Got him a new printed T for $7 and the King Kong & 2Fast2Furious DVDs (Father's Day sale -- got both for $13).

Total BC $38.xx; Total AC $3.XX

Whee Whee

All the samples I bought have $1 Qs in them, plus I still have a few from the inserts. Big Grin

At this rate, I may actually be able to afford to buy me something! Bigeye

Thanks again OP(s) of this deal!
Worthy Worthy

Oh, only minor down side was that J&J catalina didn't print when buying 2. I had read somewhere earlier that it would. Oh well, I figure I'll try 3 next time and see if that still works.

Then I went to CVS and scored another smooth run there. Another $38 worth of stuff (including Quattro Trimmer & pack of refills for DH and a pack of Huggies) for $.70 after Qs and $5 ECB. Got $10 ECB back. Cool

Not bad for 2 hours worth of work!
