15% off "Toys R Us" Coupon

you can get 15% off ONE toy at toys r us.

i suggest printing out more than one coupon and just going to every store, or going to the same store on different days.

but that's just me.

store closings (st. louis steals and deals) ...

ok, so here are some st. louis stores that are closing.

YAY for me! but, unfortunately, not for the people who are losing their jobs, and the communities that are losing local retail options ...

but, as always, back to me -- WHEEEEE!

so

SEARS, at jamestown mall is closing and will be closed early next year. ONLY this location is closing. there's another one in another part of the country, but we don't really care about them right now ...

VALUE CITY, everywhere in the st. louis area is closing and will probably be closed by the end of this year. they are already at the 50% off stage.

LINENS AND THINGS, everywhere is closing. they are at the 20 - 40% off stage. with 40% off of curtain rods -- the cheaper ones are gone, but the more expensive ones are still there -- at least at the chesterfield valley location. they will also be closed (probably) by the end of the year.

CIRCUIT CITY, in North County is also going out of business. just saw that this weekend. at the corner of 270 and w. florissant rd.

so, if you're looking to cash in on these store closings, start now.

and if you hear of any other store closings, please let me know.

i LOVE a deal.

it's been awhile, i know, and christmas is already here ...

but i've been busy, busy, busy ...

and if you were to ask me "doing what?" i would have to think about it awhile before answering you.

i've been working on my house, working AT my house, working with the kids, and working at work (ok, maybe not working at work, but i've BEEN at work, WHICH, is a job in and of itself).

so, i've been very busy.

right now, i'm tackling the daunting task of buying christmas gifts and making sure that the kids don't see them before i get them into the house. NOT an easy task because i have very nosey kids.

fortunately (or perhaps, UNfortunately, i haven't yet decided), i always have a messy car. so what i've been doing is hiding bags under the mess in the front seat. i've even taken to putting black trashbags in the trunk area of my car, so when i buy something, at least the kids won't see a big ass TOY R US bag. instead, they just continue with the belief that their mom is rather messy and that she's transporting trash around the city (sigh).

anyway, every year i try to figure out what to get them, and this year, i would really like some suggestions. i haven't yet gotten to the dollar store, but that's next on my list (nothing stuffs a stocking better than things that cost a dollar ...)

so, i have three kids (in case you're just tuning in) that are 8 (boy), 7 (boy) and 4 (girl).

send me your gift suggestions (since i'm so busy and since i WORK so much, i welcome your ideas).

thanks!
