American / British / Aussie mags are best for Christmas time! The decorations are awesome! I love the way they dress up their Christmas trees!Originally posted by elindra:I buy lots of magz during Christmas too! Love to look at the pictures
And then, there are the parties they throw and the stuff they cook! Oh man, do they COOK during this season!
And in mags like Good Housekeeping (US Edition), they have stories of love and miracles, kinda like Chicken Soup for the Soul kinda stuff, that will really warm your hearts and souls this season.

Yeah... those would have made good gifts for the kids. But nevermind... getting a book / books for them would be good too! -

How about swatch? I like their bracelet SKIN series.Originally posted by Wanda:Good suggestion abt the 2nd hand shop...have been to cash converters and one or two shops, but not many to choose from. Any good shops you know of?
Choco, I'm thinking of something semi formal which can be worn for work as well. Budget wise....hmm...I guess...up to a few hundreds?
It really depends...if it's love at first sight...erm...then...we'll see how. -

Erm...maybe wait till June 2006?Originally posted by Rhonda:Say, if anyone here sees Borders giving discounts on their calendars, PLEASE let me know by posting in here, ok? I've got my eye on a few calendars but want to wait till the prices come down.
They've got the a cat a day calender, and one for bears as well, if I remember correctly. -
After my second night shift, I crawled down to Borders just so I could purchase the 365 Cats A Year calendar.Originally posted by Wanda:Erm...maybe wait till June 2006?
They've got the a cat a day calender, and one for bears as well, if I remember correctly.
They have quite a few cat calendars that I'd love to get, esp one by Charles Wysocki! You can keep the calendars and frame up the pictures to hang around the house later!
In Borders' first few years of business here, they'd start giving hefty discounts off their calendars starting late Oct. Darnit... they don't do that anymore!
I guess too many folks hold off buying the calendars, in anticipation of the discount, and Borders wizened up to it. -
P.S. I'm loving this thread!!!!!

Yay!! Contribute! Contribute!!Originally posted by Steph84:P.S. I'm loving this thread!!!!! We need folks who tell us about sales that are happening so that we can all swoop down on the right stores at the right time and don't waste our time and resources! -
