Also, I don't remember them taking manu q's, but I'm not positive.
AS for where to stash things, I have no spare rooms, and no basement, living in TX the attic really is not good storage, gets way to hot up there, so best I can do is toilet paper in the garage, we no longer have dipers YAY, lets see, razors, toothbrushes, bandaids, panty liners and pads those are garage storage.
Cat and Dog food go in the front hall closet, shampoo/body wash/hair stylers in the bathroom under the sinks.
I am not full yet, so we will see from there. I have donated all the toothpaste that we won't use, brands I got for free or got paid to take.
And for stashing stuff, DH put up 3 sets of shelves in the garage. Each holds 1400 lbs and is huge! He's putting up 3 more next weekend, I am so excited.
Oh yes, and we live in Tx, pretty near you, and I put most everything in the garage. Of course, not food or candy, but most personal products.
How do you sell stuff to coworker and friends if they know you are gettng them practically free?
I do struggle with the 'how do you sell stuff to friends'. I have friends who don't work and whose husbands probably make 2 - 5 times what DH & I make combined. They are so nice, & not stuck up or conceited about the money at all. When they come over, though, they almost always leave with about $25 worth of stuff. Yes, I give it to them, and yes, they know I didn't spend anything on it, but it would be nice to 'get' something in return once in awhile.
The mom of a girl on DD's softball team told me I should bring all my excess out and let them all buy from me for $1 an item, and 'at least I'd make a bit more' off my deals. Yeah, I'll sell you that $12 razor for $1, you'd like that, huh?
On the receipts for the toys purchased at 75%, almost all the items start with "NCF" such as: NCF Bionicle, NCF Play Doh, NCF Jump Rope.
What does "NCF" mean?
I mean, if it wasn't for that forum, I wouldn't have known that the shots were supposed to be at the same time every day. WTF????
OK think I need to take a break/shower now. Oh did I tell you I got a virus and can't stop coughing?
do you think this is happening to us because of all the etq's I used before I quit using them? Keep trying to find a reason--

I have a TON of pm's to respond too and stuff to send out, so if you didn't get a response from me, I promise I'll try to get to it today!
I really want to just go hide and relax but today is my shopping day! Yesterday was dh's 30th birthday...he was not thrilled about that at all lol. But we were both so tired from this weekend we fell asleep right after dd went to sleep at 7:30
We went to Macy's b/c we had a large gc to spend...didn't even spend all of it b/c dd started being a monster...but I can tell you that I have never "spent" that much on lingerie before in my life..and that was clearance stuff!! that store is super expensive, but I got super cute stuff.
Oh, and I just wanted to share my good deed with you guys because I know you would appreciate how good it made me feel!
Dh called me Thursday when I was running errands and asked me if we had size 5 diapers. Now, I do not have the stock you guys do...I really have only like 4 packs of diapers, I didn't have mfq q's for them and without them they just weren't a stock up deal for me...just too much oop. So I said no I have 2's and 3's why? Long story short a good friend of ours is having a lot of financial problems to the point of not being able to afford diapers for 3 days. Him and his wife are both really good people, work hard and are just having a rough time. So I said well let's see what we can do for them.
Yesterday I sent a box of stuff back to Chi-town for them with some friends and it was loaded down!! Diapers, wipes, deodorant, razors, shampoo, toilet paper, paper towel, body wash, kid's shampoo, toothpaste, pretty much anything and everything! It made me feel super good b/c what good does all of this stuff do if i cant help the people who really need it??
Another thing (but it runs in the meat category, kind of) is vienna sausages. Have you tried cutting things up in cubes and letting him use a popsicle stick to eat them? As he got older we let him use toothpicks and chopsticks. Lots of things he didn't like would get eaten then!! We also would buy flavored waters to freeze into popsicles. Does he like scrambled or hardboiled eggs? To encourage him to eat when he doesn't want to you could always break out the take along thomas that's a bulldozer (butch maybe?) and use it as a spoon. Or if that one in particular doesn't work, I'm sure you've got something in that stash that would. I think the one I used was a tonka truck.

BTW~ We got it at T
Hope that helps you!!
I agree, you get lotsa looks. But it's better than your kid getting lost. Mine took off @ target once, had my hands full with the baby during the XMAS rush. you cant see a little one under all those people ESPECIALLY by the cash registers. I just ran in for a gallon of milk.
He had a little trouble getting used to it. He'd run and fall, but after that it was great! I recommend them.
but I guess we have gotta do what we gotta do as parents these days...

OMG do you know how hard it would be for me to find Butch? I have like 6 totes downstairs labeled Thomas. Would be easier to just buy another one
That's what I was afraid of.. I already get crazy stares like 'lady with too many kids' and it doesnt help that my husband is 6 ft 9 in and 275lbs & I 5 ft 9 in and 110lbs -- both covered in tattoos, so we already look like circus sideshow!
