Those slippers would be perfect for several on my list, but I don't knit, crochet or even sew (well, sometimes buttons). I'd love to find out how difficult/easy they are. Perhaps, I'll find a knitting class or a tutor later in the Spring (hate getting out anymore than I have to in the winter).

I did find several small gifts over the weekend on sale & have added these to my list & budget for Christmas 2010!

DD and just got back from our second trip to town today.

Office Max was having a 15% off everything you can fit in a bag today and I found presents too - will have to figure out the goodes and the costs - I think I did really well!!

Ooh, discounted office supplies!! That could have been a very dangerous place in which to let me loose!

Me too madhen - I love them!! Cannot wait to list what I got and how much I spent/saved!!

Debbie-cat - just wanted you to know how much DD enjoys using the make up pads that I bought from you!!

Cute slippers madhen-too bad I can't knit. Someday I'll learn.
Way to go on the .50 stocking stuffer Danni.
Office supply sales-oh I'm glad we don't have an Office Max near us. No temptation!
Great gift list deb.

beautiful slippers...not like the old fashioned ones!

I'm going to trace DD's foot on cardboard while she's still home, so when I wrap the slippers, they will already have her foot in them!! Is that weird? I'm always trying to think of different ways to wrap presents.
