Yep, I thought the same thing Reader. Pamy, are they still out down by you? Well I just called Target and they are out of stock. She said to call every single day as they get new shipments in everyday. She said they had 20 on Sunday and they were out of them in 45 minutes... GOOD LUCK!

Good going Pamy!! I didn't have to do much shopping and it was almost all online, except for the books at Barnes&Noble to go to the kids in group homes in Bookie's name, but I was browsing QVC for Zachary and I knew he had a leap pad so I just searched on Leap Frog and found an item I thoought he would like.. it wasn't a todays' special value or introductory price or anything like that.. so I was on the phone with Zmom to make sure she could tolerate the combination of Zachary and a little kid karaoke machine (she could) and so I got permission.. hit the button to buy it and it was SOLD OUT! And it wasn't just out of stock.. did another search and it didn't even pop up!! But while I was still on the phone with Z, I quickly zoomed over to Amazon, we read some reviews and I got the sucker!! Sounds like Bill did exactly what he needed to do.. no panicking, made strategic phone calls and then struck quickly.. throw in a bit of luck and voila!! So are you and Bill trying it out, Pamy? When my brother's oldest nephews were younger (they are both over 20 now) he would get the newest machine early, buy the books and play the games so he could introduce them to the games.. more than once he ended up buying another one for them so he could keep the first one. They came in handy at Thanksgiving.. Good JOB, Bill!!

Santa got lucky here as well today. Dakota had asked for a carebear. Now, she has two, plus some smaller action figure types. The first two are both Sunshine bear (unless you've had to buy carebears, lol, this will make little sense!) She has a large Sunshine that's almost as big as she is and goes everywhere with her. She has a regular sized Sunshine that she plays with all day and she sleeps with both of these. So, she asks for a new one. I buy a regular sized Friendship bear (I think that's its name.) Yesterday we're going through the toy department at the store looking for gifts for my neices when Kota points out some smaller carebears and states the only one she wants is Sunshine bear. ARGH! They didn't have Sunshine, I checked, lol. We checked every store we went into yesterday and couldn't find the one little Sunshine bear she wanted. I called in the troops, lol. Called sis who I knew was going shopping, then mom, then to be on the safe side the adopted bros and the youngest sis. I had everyone out looking for this damn bear, lol. Every single year we have some gift the kids really want, and have to struggle to find. And here this year, I'm going to get caught up on a $7 carebear, lol. Well, sis called earlier today, they were at Toys R Us, who'd just got a shipment in and guess what she found. I told her to get it, then called off the search. I have no idea what her thing is with Sunshine bear, but now she'll have small, medium, and large which is what she wanted, lol. Pamy, I'm so glad you guys found it! And way cool that the guy went and picked it up for you!

Makes sense to me, Pamy!! Good job, War!! My item arrived and I opened up the big Amazon box and the box had a "try me" feature.. said to push the on button and try me out.. yeah.. so I tried and it barely sputtered.. yikes! I read everything on the package but no hints so I have to free the machine from packaging.. this thing would have been safe if it was a vial of nitroglycerin! So.. I slide the tape and undo the box.. remove about 10 twisty things that are twisted about 50 times each, this includes little black plastic thingys and more cardboard - yikes! Of course the instructions cannot be reached until I have breached some of this structure and then it does admit that the batteries in the device are for "store demo only" so I have to get to the batteries which are on the bottom and though it tells me to flip off the cover, it is firmly held in place with a phillips head screw. I put in some batteries and it seems to work.. Danged if I'm going to repackage this..

Sea, at this point...just slap that thing in a gift bag anyway that you can make it fit and scream "Merry Christmas".. just do it, the screaming part makes you feel much better!

Suits.. I already have all the "junk" in a bag and the item in the box.. I'm sure Zachary won't mind not having to extricate it from bondage just to play with it.
