 Posted: 12/10/05 - 08:55 Post subject: I just decided that ebay and Christmas
don't go together:
It really kind of irks me that in searching for a toy that is backordered forever, you can find it on ebay for double the cost and 10 times the amount for shipping. Seems like a person can make a ton of money by cleaning out the shelves of a store. I've decided I'm NOT going there!
The Star Wars Legos are off the shelves in my local area. At Toysrus yesterday an older lady was really angry and telling the clerk to go in the back and open some boxes. "honest lady that's it" All they had was the clone trooper truck. And actually it appears to be one of the impossible items and I could have gotten three......I didn't because the stupid clerk couldn't tell me how much and the line was super long......on a Friday!!!!!!!!.

Someone suggested Kaybee. Ours closed....but there is one in Oshkosh, which might be more pleasant shopping. Appleton is retail he!!. My sister travels from Upper MI to shop down here.

My sisters just went there on a shopping spree, they forgot about me I guess (they just know I can't shop 'til I drop). They don't stop to eat, it's sick.
