These days everyone is so stressed out about everything I just want to find something to give to THEM. Ginger, you hit the nail righton the head. And Spencer will love his cone!

The prizes they dangle in front of them are worthless pieces of crap. At least 10 times a year I have to argue with my little girl about not buying the stuff (unfortunately, we live in a suburb of school kids so there is no-one to sell to). At first I would buy enough for her to get something but then I had to put my foot down. I would spend $75.00 for her to get a toy worth 50 cents. I finally told her not to bother to bring the catalogs home anymore, of course there is still the argument about how her friends all do it but it is starting to minimize as time goes on.<BR/><BR/>Linda GatesAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8915423025917785375.post-14940773607333291212009-01-23T20:26:00.000-08:002009-01-23T20:26:00.000-08:00I agree, Ginger.
