May 10, 2008 New Ship Of Thieves...May 2008 Repo Thread...Part 5

Great deals! I have found a bunch really reduced in price the last month or so too. All the left overs from the holiday parties I suppose. I love to shop and it's even better when it is on sale!

I trained my girls to look for the "CLEARANCE" rack. I knew I'd succeeded when my oldest - 20 now - walked into Windsor and said - $100? Are they nuts - I'll just wait until it goes on sale.

BTW, if anyone is ever in Vegas over New Years - the outlet malls have the best sales - the girls (human this time) got about 7-10 dresses each this past Jan - and all of them came up to $89.

They didn't need them but DH had won so the way I look at it: they were actually free!

Heck - if I didn't spend it - he would - and probably back to the casino so we usually wait in the room until he's up about $500 and then we shop till we drop! Call me the Queen of Clearance! DId I ever tell you the I walked into Wilson's Leather (Outlet Mall) up in Washington state and walked out with 5 long leather trenchcoats for $10 each! That by far is the best ones yet. I gave out nice Christmas gifts that year!

So if anyone needs to borrow any dresses - sizes 7-11 - just let me know - I can post some if you like. I'm looking into opening my own bag and borrow type of store.

Yeah, Wilson's Leather has some GREAT deals at the outlet! We've gotten really cheap jackets, purses, wallets, briefcases, etc.

You think I should put a blurb on the first post for you guys about it? Not sure who is the team leader on this but if you want me to just PM me and I will.

It's booked on Kaylee's credit card, so it's up to her....Kaylee...do you want Marr to put it on page one?!

 

[tink1963]

guys, I want the bag!

But wait I want that bag too

 

[HollyTyler]

Uh oh.....I just tried to hook up my camera to my computer to upload some pics from the last couple of days, and had trouble plugging into the camera. The cord eventually went in, but nothing worked right....the camera wouldn't connect with the computer and do it's little transfer thingy. SO when I pulled the cord out from the camera to see if I could figure out what's up, that's when I noticed the cord says KODAK on it and it's from a previous camera that I no longer have! My current camera is Panasonic. I have NO idea why I had a Kodak cord lying around when I haven't had that camera since June. Then when I plugged the right cord in, it wouldn't work either! Yikes! I'm so bad with phones and cameras. I wind up getting a new one about every 6 months because I BREAK EVERYTHING! Usually it's from being dropped though.

I am still trying to get caught up from Part 4 of the forum.
Someone posted about putting quarters in prescription bottles for storage. We use the M&M minis containers. They fit perfectly.

Us too!

 

[LisaG520]

Well, I'm leaving the back pack home this trip. I've used it in the past, as there were park days involved. This time I'll just have my little 'park purse' on a long strap. It's small and holds all the essentials. I will have a mondo tote on the plane and embarkation day, as I'll have lots of papers, a book and will be helping with laynard distribution. Sea days...just my laynard.

.

Even though we aren't doing the parks this time we are still bringing our backpack to take on excursions (towels, sunscreen, water, granola bars, etc.)

I wonder if he could make it with diet lemon lime soda? Trying to watch those calories!

Do you think they have diet tonic on board? Gin and tonic with lime is my drink of choice but I usually can't find diet tonic. Maybe I'll have to bring some with me...

 

[pjpoohbear]

that's cuz you are in the room with John and you are AFRAID of being bedazzled

I am so much more afraid of Sophia and the bedazzler, .

Here's a cute little tiny clip from 2 days before Tyler got sick. He's a bit excited at the end. Tyler's the one standing up. Just click on the picture and the video should play. No sound though.

[nskjerven]

I love the Nut Tree! When I was a little girl and my parents would drive from Southern California to Northern to visit my grandparents, we would stop there. But then they were in the middle of NO WHERE!

ha ha it still is....it a good family memory for me too. We used to stop there on the way to the Lake as kids....flown in once too. I used to fly little planes did I tell you guys that? During my teenage and college years...
