DIS/DISUnplugged/Dreams December Event Info – DISapalooza (continued)

[kathrna]

I've been in the office/spare bedroom wrapping. The PC is in here. I've spent the morning manually going back and forth on pages to get to the latest b/c I couldn't find the "refresh" tab. I just NOW found it. Good grief! (I LOVE MY MAC!)

Here is ours...Nothing about not DISing. Just don't send Chain letters.

and

"use the computing facilities in an appropriate and ethical manner;"

Nope - nothing wrong with the DIS!

I think our policy says something about not doing personal computing. Oops!

Thanks for the head up. I need to replace mine and every little bit helps.

Why do you need to replace it? I don't have one but have wanted one for awhile. I sent the link to DH.

This is specifically for Mainegal (Lyn) but also others looking for a Wii. Starting 12/5 Walmart will offer for the same $199 price but you will get a $50 gift card. You have no excuses now Lyn.

Here is the topic over on the budget board.

Thanks!
I saw one at Target yesterday - $199 w/ $20 Target card. I didn't buy it.

But Walmart is on the way home!

The Sunday Walmart ad said Wii for $249 included "sport package of racquet, bat and club" and one free game of choice. But a $50 card would be better.

We'll have to ask Anne later when she comes on. It's a cookie EXCHANGE now, so bring or buy some cookies for Sunday.

Hmmm..... What cookies go best with mimosas?

Finally caught up on all the posts this morning.

You folks (and you know who you are!) must not have had much work to do today that you could post so much!!!

I've had a productive morning. And probably going to go do shopping shopping at Sam's and Meijer with the boss' charge card to buy stuff for the local charity organization we support this afternoon.

Can I buy those on the way from MCO to WDW? I know I can get the graham crackers...what about key lime yogurt?

Replace your Wii? Already?!
Did it get a lot of use/abuse?
Are they durable?

This sounds like super fun kind of shopping! Have fun.

Her house was broken into while on her Disney Cruise last month. The hoodlums took the Wii and her laptops. :shakes fist:

Ours is played almost daily by our now 8 year old who received it last Christmas. This is the child that cannot pass clothes or shoes down to his brother because everything is ripped, stained and ruined within 6 weeks. "Gentle" is not in his vocabulary. He is forever ripping the CDs out and jamming them in. It's still going strong (although, now I've probably just jinxed it!)

Fun for me yes. Fun for the cashier, not so much. (Being in their place in the past, I try to make it as easy on them as possible.)

Usually three carts per store per trip. Last year our office filled a U-haul with stuff.

Awesome that your company can and does do this! The true Christmas spirit. Think of the shopping as practice for your own shopping? Try to have some fun!

I think 11:30 sounds good. I'll swing by Anne's room first for some cookies...

Yay!!!!



Cookies at Anne's is Breakfast for the morning.

I thought Anne had the cookies?

COOKIES


I plan on bringing chocolate chip, peanut butter cup, ginger snaps, cranberry nut bread and pumpkin bread. Quantity will depend on packing room. I would love to have other contribute if they wish.

Need more than a fist shake!

One week from right now -I'll be... well, right here at work... but 1 week from tonight - TODD-A-PALOOZA BEGINS!!!!!!!!!!

One week from today, I will be meeting with a lawyer - what a downer.

But one week plus one day from right now, I will be in Disney World!

Remember, today is a no crying day. Anne said so...

Happy tears are okay!
