I went into the Dollar General looking for school
decorations. I walked out without buying anything.I refuse to patronize a store that does such a dispicable thing. I'm a big halloween fan and was miffed they hadn't even put out the halloween stuff yet!
I bought mine at Dollar General but sm
you have to ask for it. They keep it in the office. I use it for walking my dogs. I think Wal-Mart probably has it, too, maybe in the auto department.
Dollar General, Food Lion, Wal-Mart around here. NM

Yeah I remember Prell!! I think I saw some at Dollar General not too long ago (nm)
x
try the NYC brand or the Rimmel brand -
I use those and they are usually .99 or 1.99 depending on which kind you want. I swear by them because I love to have many different colors and do not want to spend a lot of money.
I have people ask me all the time where I get a particular color, so they obviously don't look "cheap".
I think you can find either of them at Kmart or Walmart.
Good luck!
I could be a real brat when I was little and
I had my tail swatted more than once. I deserved it too. No doubt about it.
I'm not beating on my kids but they have certainly had their tails warmed more than once too. They knew exactly why there were getting it.
My kids aren't out terrorizing their schools or neighbors. I think if more parents disciplined their children, we would have less child on child violence.
Teach them right from wrong.
Before anyone jumps in and say a swat is beating your kid. It is not! There is a HUGE difference between inflicting damaging blows and a disciplinary swat.
The brat texting kid for Cingular ....sm
if that was my daughter she'd never breathe near a cell phone again much less touch one to text her "BFF, Jill".
1 Sheltie, 1 golden, 1 Brat Cat
Presently:
Crissie, bi blue Sheltie.
Jamie, golden
Kazie, AKA Brat Cat.
Just in the past year I lost:
Starting in March, 06 my 21-year-old kitty Dinger, then in July 10-year-old Taz Duh Golden (not too bright), 15 days later, B.J.'s a cat who absolutely loved Taz and I know mourned himself to death!, then in Feb 07, 'Stash a 15-year-old kitty.
Happily, I've had many grace my heart before this and are now waiting for me at the Bridge. Three are my absolute heart dogs....Jennifer and Tyde were goldens and Casie was a Sheltie/Shepard mix. I miss these little critters so much!
Believe it or not, but I take Walmart brand Onion and Garlic and mix it with a jar of Walmart brand
Mixing the two sauces togeter gives it the right amount of garlic and veggies. Our family is Italian on both sides, but we all agree for a quick jar sauce instead of homemade, this does the trick! YUM
My feathered BRAT -- might be kinda graphic but funny too
Sitting here trying to post and work all day, with Tooki (AKA as MS Paris Hilton BOID) -- routine is AHH mom is out of bed -- " I can SCREAM for attention" -- this is while "mom" is in the bathroom being female etc, getting water for coffee -- k -- coffee on, outside for first cig (for mom) of the day, boid on shoulder, LARGE POOP on pavement, table or tree (sorry) -- after that, its treats and cuddle on moms shoulder for about 30 minutes.
We then come back in the house and mom does her computer clean up which is daily -- getting coffee ready and at this point, Tooki is trying to climb on the bed, then up on the headboard, and last trick if the blinds aren't open, we try to climb up them and chew them up in the process.
Mommy and daddy bought me a swinging perch from Santa Bird, but I HATED it in my cage, so what daddy did, was take my perch and put it in the door and with the perch in the door chain, I will climb on the perch, then the door chain and the front door.
My favorite thing though is to be in the tree right outside my door, and I have a "wild bird bud -- I think he is a blue jay and my "mom" says he's NOT my type -- I'm a sun conure after all, but with the cold weather here in Florida, mommy tries to make sure all of my "buds" are taken care of.
I know one thing, -- IM ALL GOIL and spoiled rotten!!!!
Love Tooki
We just put every extra dollar
We could toward paying all the unsecured debt we had until we only owed for the house. Then we decided we didn't really need to be living so grandly, and we really weren't living where we wanted to be anyway, so we quit jobs, sold the house and bought a smaller one where we wanted to live outright with the profit. We had a few thousand left so hubby could take a bit of time and look for work. He's an industrial electrician, so he can really work anywhere. I decided to go in a different direction career-wise, and decided to become an MT.
dollar store
One year was particularly bad and I went to the dollar store and bought 64 things and wrapped every one. It was quite an impressive hill under the tree.
I am less than $100K way from a million-dollar
nm
Half-Dollar sized BA
yes, and that's just your opinion.
Not sure.....I vote for Half-Dollar! lol
x
Do you have a Dollar Tree nearby?
they have a pet odor remover product in the pet supplies. It contains an enzyme that they use in nursing homes to get rid of all kinds of odors, not just urine. worth a try, especially for just a buck! Otherwise maybe Febreeze but you would probably have to soak it and let it dry out, not just a light spray. Good luck!
SURE he can afford to work for a dollar --
What a load of manure.
My husbands check went up a whole dollar - nm
xx
I was going to say a million dollar home today
in the NE isn't all that spectacular, sadly. And for only 300,000 you can get a fixer upper! Isn't that special? lol
If you have a Family Dollar store nearby, try to....
get a product called "Absolutely Awesome." This stuff gets the most stubborn stains out of literally everything and is so amazingly inexpensive that I finally started buying it by the gallon!
Thanks everyone, the thousand dollar post before made me feel CHEAP!
I will go with the gas card and some cash, good ideas. I think I got 10 bucks and told I had to start to pay more "board". Times are changing. I don't remember last time we gabbed about this subject but the gifts were way up there for high school. These sound more like what I can afford.
The best thing for dirty diapers - mini diaper bags at the dollar store that sm
smell like powder. You get 50 to a bag - they are little blue plastic bags. Tie the poopie up tight in the bag and VOILA! throw it in your trash and no smell!
What brand name does she use?
NM
I pay about $20 for my brand, which
is Jockey. Their underpants are good too. Hard to find in stores anymore, but they can be ordered here.

The same place carries fancier brands also.

tribute in general
I saw it as a tribute to a soldier in general.
I can't stand TV in general.
I watch MAYBE 1 hour a week of regular ol' TV and that is just local news blurbs. I am a big movie fanatic though.
What I really can't stand about the crap coming over the airways is the constant barrage of DRUG ADS--whether they are for prescription drugs or OTC stuff. It's just too much.
I saw a spot on the news about how stores are contemplating putting in little LCD screens into those "kiddie carts" that the adult can plug $1 into, put the kid in the plastic car/cart thing, so the kid basically can stay numbly tuned into some show while the parents shops in quiet comfort.
Heaven forbid kids are made to behave while out in public. Oh don't even get me going on the sheer retardedness of it all...
not personal, just in general...
So many nasty comments...the point of my post was (and this is the last post I'll make on the subject)a teacher won 10grand...woohoo!!! GREAT for him, a hardworking professional (and yes, underpaid) catches a break! I'm happy for him...end of story! Have a lovely day...
General Hospital
I've been watching GH for years. What do you think about Elizabeth/Lucky/Jason? I'd like to slam Elizabeth. I feel sorry for Jason.
In general, you're definitely right (sm)
I am not necessarily saying my mom is wrong - but it's not how I am choosing to raise my kids. I don't want them to be scared. I only spank them as a last resort (for defiance after warnings) and they know what lines not to cross. I rarely have to spank them and they are far better behaved than a lot of my friends' children.
Is it because of the neighbors in general
or just that you don't want to impose on anyone? I have 3 that I can borrow from and have. My very best friend who lived across the street up until last year was someone I always went to and vice versa. We could borrow anything from each other and I mean anything. We joke with each other all the time now when I need to borrow something really crazy that I wish she was still here because if I asked the others, they'd think I was nuts.
Unfortunately, he probably won't be in the general population sm
because of his celebrity status. He'll probably only see the guards and his cell.
Maybe he could be sort of a general fix-it guy
Someone in my area actually has an ad in the paper that says 'Rent-a-Husband'. For household things like building shelves or cabinets, lighting a pilot light, trapping and removing a mouse in the bathroom, or a bat in the garage, things like that. Petsitting and dog-walking are good options for a rent-a-husband, too! Or for busy people, someone to take their car to the shop for a tuneup and oil change, so they don't have to. Back in the 1970's, during the gas 'shortage', when lines for gas were hours long, people made money by taking people's cars to the gas station and filling up for them.
Maybe he could build those cute wooden children's toys you see at the fancier toy stores. And either sell them or give them to organizations that give toys to needy children. If he's 'artsy-craftsy', maybe he can come up with really cute dog-collars & matching leashes, or cute wooden pet-beds that look like miniatures of the real thing. If he likes to write, and is smart, maybe he could start an advice column for soon-to-be-seniors. (Nowadays 61 isn't really a 'senior' - I think it's closer to 75-80!) Or, if he likes kids, maybe a 'rent-a-grandpa'! Or else maybe a small mail-order business, like on eBay.
Well, that's all for my ideas, I need to get to work, myself!
Hope he finds the PERFECT idea!
I do have a son, and who is villifying men in general? sm
The one we are talking about right now is a pedophile, as was my granfather. The one I am married to is abusive.
However, I know many men who I love and respect, my stepfather who only lived with my mother for 5 years but has kept in contact with me and my sister all of our lives who I now help take care of. Many other male friends and relatives. My son who I love dearly. I have seen many women post on here and say how fortunate they are to have such a great husband. I can't defend someone who molests children though, sorry.
One brand is Scat Mat. (sm)
You can hide the mat under a blanket and they still work, from what I've read. That way the pet doesn't know when the mat is there and when it isn't.
I second the Wacoal brand!
I am also a 36D and I have tried every brand out there it seems. The Wacoal are pricey, but they seem to fit the best.
I will be checking this brand out
I heard someone else mention that name. Thanks for the opinions.
Brand New Lemon
Has anyone ever bought a brand new car that turned out to be a lemon?
I need to know what trouble I can avoid when buying used... Thanks.
Waking up can happen even with general
anesthesia, happened to me in the middle of a face lift as I was having my neck liposuctioned!! So having general (which I think is more than the conscious) does not mean you stay fully asleep. There are others waking with general, have seen stories on it before on 20/20 I think. I had other surgeries after that time but this was the only time I woke during surgery. I joked with the physician later about my awakening that the anesthesiologist must have gone out for lunch at that particular time!!
Finally, it seems to go as "we" the general
I think Lakesha or Jordin, in any order will be next 2, and Blake and Melinda final 2. I like them all, so I dont care who wins.
General legal matter
Definitely take pictures to use in your defense and when you remove those vines from your house, take pictures of the removal of paint too. Most state laws allow you to control whatever is growing over your house, fence and/or yard that results from a neighbor but if you trim their plants that are on your property and happen to kill the entire tree, plant or vine, your neighbor can make you replace them. It's a matter that has no winning situation because you have to live by these people. I say get a free estimate from a landscaper and get an estimate from a painter also, talk to someone in the legal system and see exactly what your options are, and move forward to bring this problem to an end. Once you find out what action you can take, if any, tell your neighbor what you are planning to do and if they do not take care of the problem, you will move forward as planned. No way would I let this go on without doing something about it. Good luck.
Nope, general surgeon.
 Gross, isn't it?! Can't WAIT 'til cold season!
You must pick gross men in general...
Let's just call you stinky girl 
I'm just always suspicious of "statistics," in general, but particularly so -- sm
when given without the backup data which supposedly generated them. :-) Beyond that, I probably bristled more at the descriptor "filth" as a blanket term covering the categories. I suspect that most of what are considered the greatest movies ever made would not pass that "filth" test.
What brand was it? Did it have a money back
NM
Sears/Kenmore brand
We love ours. Upright with some hoses for hard to reach places. It has an extra-long cord so I don't have to keep plugging and unplugging for every room and it reaches pretty far. We've had it about 8 years - works great. It does however require bags, which I do not mind. I have tried one bagless vacuum and will never buy another one - the dirt got so airborn and it was yucky to clean out. Whoever invented these I do not believe were too health-conscious. At least with the bag, the dirt is confined and you don't have to touch it - eeewww! Hope you like your new carpet, you are so spoiled! 
Regarding brand names of furniture
Am thinking about getting some new furniture. I noticed American Signature had a really good sale on but have never bought any from there. I kinda got stung buying some, what I thought really inexpensive and nice-looking furniture from Ashley's when I moved into my new home in 2004. Well, excited about the newness, I did not check out each piece as it came in 1 x 1. That was my mistake- could not be returned, shoulda checked the small print. A living room chair has arms, 1 is lower than the other- my Bombay chest in the foyer has 1 leg on the bottom that is slightly turned out more than the other- my bedroom furniture has the paint on top flaking off. Needless to say, I do not care about using Ashley again. Now I know I can buy the really, really costly like Broyhill, Thomasville and the like but I have just spent out almost $10,000 getting my main room tiled and my bathroom fixed in slate so now am trying to see what else I can find. Has anyone used American Signature, if so do you like and I am open to any and all suggestions about others. Thanks.
This is a brand new house, just built
Therefore there is nothing to compare it to. I don't know how they came up with the $200+ initially. But since the natural gas bill rarely runs more than $30-40 per month even in winter, I am not going to do averaging on it again, even after the 12-month period is up.
It's worth it for the electricity because it runs around $100 a month with averaging and it goes up and down a lot more. I live in Oklahoma and it can get as high as 100 degrees plus in the summer, and down to zero or below in the winter.
I think it's okay. It's a gift. Gifts don't have to be brand new. sm
I thought it was the thought that counted. When I was pregnant, my mother in law bought me the cutest baby clothes, put them in a cute gift box and they were clearly used - gently, but I did not care! My son wore them over and over and I loved every one of them.
A gift is a gift, new or not.
This is a brand new house, just over a year old
The ducts were cleaned before we moved in. And it has an air-exchange system that completely renews the air within the house every 25 hours. Which is good and bad - if it's mold I'm allergic too, then mold spores are probably coming in from outside. We do have filters, but I'm sure they can't filter out everything.
I'll have to check out those nasal washes. Thanks.

find out which one he wants and get him that one. They are the best, and especially if he wants an IPOD.
