So this is it? Now I have to actually go out and talk to my neighbors? It was good knowing you people...

For us who don't want to get out of the bed on a cold Friday morning there is the power of internet. Most of my shopping was limited to Amazon, Dell and Costco. Would love to go to the mall one of these days and feel the spirit of shopping season.

Here are 15 more silly toys that you shouldn't buy for a kid:http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2009/11/27/15-toys-not-to-buy-your-k_n_351369.html Pole dancer is the #1 worst toy. I think you posted the cleaning trolley also.

In 08 the levels ranged from 1100-1183 when I was looking. Don't know exact numbers. Is the number low because many are planning to stay put till the house is auctioned/foreclosed and not worrying about putting the house on market?

All my purses have at least a $100 in a deeper pocket as emergency money. Sometimes I forget to move my wallet from one to another.

I use a stainless steel polish once a month. Removes all the finger prints. McD, let me know which one you decide on. I need to upgrade mine to a French door model too- it helps to have a pull out freezer than the side-by-side.

So the thread is hijacked.. officially:-) Here is an update on my story- I have decided to take the little one to American Girl Place after all, sometimes in December. It will only be for a photo shoot though. I know I am a very good photographer especially when kids are my subjects, but still...

BK, lovely post. Thank you so much for putting all the details..

Aha! Now all I have to do is, somehow make DH read this, and then take him to the Maserati showroom because I am worth it:-) Kidding aside, I have been saving money to buy a shiny European car for almost four years now. The amount grew so much that I ended up putting it into something else...

Nude, if you had told me all this when kiddo was five, I would have freaked out:-) Now I am at a stage I know that playing tea party, or even making a fancy tea for mommy wouldn't come in the way of becoming an engineer or a doctor,or even the Secretary of State when she grows up. I have played...

I haven't gone either, planning to. My daughter has read all the books, and has one little doll that comes with the costco book set. I had gifted her Kit Kittridge set of books in 07 to prepare her for the recession.. helped her a lot to understand what was happening.

:O cameray, this is really horrible.. Five year old's mother pushing her into prostitution doesn't come as a surprise.. what were they thinking when they made this shirt!
