My silly family seems to think a pantry is used for storing food.

Cyn..it's $4.50 for the first bracelet/necklace and $2.50 for each after that.

Oh my goodness....how have I missed this thread?! :roll: Luv looking at & hearing about all your great deliveries! It's good to keep the delivery guys from thinking we're only interested in smellies. :upssmiley1:
MaggieMae - those bracelets are beautiful! I can understand why you've collected a few. [smilie=th_e3301ae2] Very reasonable prices and shipping isn't bad at all. I'm thinking Christmas prezzies.... [smilie=th_aa17]

I agree - those bracelets would make excellent Christmas gifts. The shipping is not bad at all. They are really beautiful.

Home Decorator's has become a new found friend. The outlet has these great mugs that would make excellent gifts - http://www.homedecor..._Yours_Mug/130/ They are on sale for only $8/each. They don't have all the letters available, though. These mugs are a good size and are delicate yet sturdy, if that makes sense. Each one came boxed and ready for gifting. Super nice.

I also got a few of the plates - http://www.homedecor...ours_Plate/280/ They are really nice, too, but are small. More of dessert plates or for finger foods. They have more letters available in these.

I got them when there was a 20% off sale with free shipping, so I got a really good deal. I use them mainly on display but I used a mug this morning for my coffee which is what made me think about them again.

WOW Cyn...those are so elegant!!! I just LOVE the handle on the cups! Sadly, they don't have M so I will keep it bookmarked and keep taking peeks! [smilie=th_ee29]

I'm really impressed with the quality of those mugs, MaggieMae. Bummer about them not having the letter M.

I got an Epson document scanner today. I read good reviews and I'm excited to use it. Most of the clutter we have here is paper stuff (wax does NOT count as clutter!!!). I'll tinker with it this weekend, but I'm already loving the compact size. So ready to de-clutter! [smilie=th_76d65c2f]

Eerily quiet over here. No other goodies rolling in?

I did get some goods from Williams Sonoma. I love that place! I got a set of the seasonal contrast dish towels: http://www.williams-...els&cm_src=hero Really nice. I also like their bar mop towels so I got a set of those.

Nothing's rolling in yet, but I have begun my online Christmas shopping. I've learned to get the toys early because they sell out by Thanksgiving online.

Meanwhile, I'm waiting for the best Bass Pro Shops sale I can find. That's like DH's version of a Yankee Candle store. Posted Image

Ah that's pretty smart to start that online shopping so early.

I'll have to keep an eye on for a Bass Pro Shop sale. [smilie=th_i-m_so_happy]

The TSV on QVC last week was an E-reader by Pandigital. Great price and I could surf the web, get email, etc. Not being real tech savvy [smilie=th_pardon] , I didn't think it thru enuf. There's a McDonalds near my house that has free Wifi, so I thought I could just connect to that and be good to go. Sad to say, I tried setting up my new toy last nite and can't connect to their Wifi. :angry: I 'spose my only options would be to physically GO to McD's or somewhere w/free Wifi, and download the books I'd like (which kinda ruins the whole 'ease of use' concept), or have Wifi installed in the house (which I hear is pricey). Before I send it back [smilie=th_sad2hz1] , anyone know of any other way around my 2 options?

I'm not sure, Sweet. I'm not very savvy with things like this either. I would love an e-reader. I hope you can get an easy (and not $$$) resolution!

Sweet, do you have dial-up or high speed internet at your house? If you have high speed, I would think all you need is a wireless router. Is there anything in the instructions that came with your new toy on how to connect to the internet?

Aria - My ISP is dial up, not high speed. The instructions said the only way to connect to the internet was using Wifi.[smilie=th_roll] [smilie=crap]

Sweet, did you ever figure out a solution? I am dying for an e-reader. I'm hoping a Kindle shows up under the Christmas tree. [smilie=th_i-m_so_happy]

As for trees, I needed another one so I just ordered from Balsam Hill. They have very realistic and beautiful trees. It's prelit with clear lights and I'm not even going to put ornaments on it. It should be here before Thanksgiving.

I really like the look of these Lawn Lights: http://www.lawnlights.com/ Does anyone have these or have seen them in person?
