Pm me. Dd going to college and clearing out her room
They have had this sale for the past two years, so it might happen again this year. I believe it was around October 2012 and around December (?) in 2013. Do a search of this board; there were threads on both these sales.
AG dolls never go on sale but check ebay, craigslists, yardsales. Don''t forget the facebook yardsale groups. DD had me sell some AG furniture and accessories to earn money thru my local facebook yard sale group for last years Girl of the Year!
When my daughter was into the dolls, it made Christmas and birthdays really easy, since everyone simply bought her a dress or accessory. She was into them (well, her friends were and she was by extension) for four years or so.
One thing is to try and not get a historical doll on the edge of retirement - once they are retired, their stuff disappears.
Any recommendations on which historical doll would be good to start with? My daughter will be 5 soon and has expressed interest. I'd rather do a historical because she likes to have her dolls act out "their" stories (i.e. the Disney Princesses act out their movies) more than making up completely new stories of her own.
But I wonder if some of them have better or worse stories for a particularly little girl. For example, I heard that Samantha will re-release this year but I'm not sure if she will be relatable to a five-year-old. On the other hand, I did read the Little House books with my son when he was five and he loved it so maybe I'm not giving her enough credit. Thoughts?
