i have been a member for several years( i think) lol, anyway the one thing i have learned is to buy after season items on clearance and use them throughout the year.
i did this last year and have a large stash of items , i have used them for christmas birthdays easter.

this year hubby and i have moved into a larger more expensive house bought a newer suv, and money is really tight. but htanks to buying year round adn the tips on here the grandkids won't notice how tight money is. my daughter and i went thru the christmas box adn put names on all the stuff we have, i really need jsut a few things to make it even, there is even enough stuff to start on next years borhtdays.

thansk so much fo rall the great tips

I feel the exact same way. I've learned so much from the ladies here and continue to glean great ideas. Oh, we're all glad you're a part of the village too.
