I was very pleased with our $39.99 (ours died the week of Thanksgiving) DVD player and a $13.00 2 gb memory card for my camera - bought one for my neice too! Both came from WalMart. And I did manage to find Dance Pinkie Pie at Target for $39.99 instead of her regular $49.99!

My DH and I needed a TV for our bedroom. We got a 22 inch LCD HDTV with built in DVD player for 189.00 at Target the BF sale plus we had a 10% off coupon if we put it on our charge. We will then pay it off when the statement comes. The TV is now 330 some dollars at Target I just looked yesterday I was PLEASED*!*!

I also got my MIL a willow tree doll, one of the medium height ones origanally 11.50 for 1.50 becuase I had a 10off a 10 purchase at Bon-Ton

I am not sure if it counts but I bought my DS some toys from a local church rummage sale, I got this track set minus the cars, this play ATM, a matchbox travel box and toy travel basketball hoop for $3 which included a $.40 donation. I was very happy!

The best deal Ive found so far would have to be The american idol challenge dvd game that I got for my niece. It was originally $29, at KB toys and I saw it online at their site marked down to $10 but I bought it in the store for $4.48! The next best deal was a sweater my other niece wanted at Delias for $30. I found the same sweater at Kohls for 50% off ($15) and had a card for $10 off any purchase at Kohls. So I only ended up spending $5 on that. Michele
