I'm at work and mrsskoorb is shopping and I'm loading up mbna every hour or so and I get to see new purchases flying on there as she goes Xmas shopping :eek: She is with a friend of ours who has a serious money-spending problem. I Hope she isn't rubbing off too much on mrsskoorb! :frown:

EDIT: And there goes a purchase for $51 from Old Navy...

As long as there are charges to Circuit City, Best Buy, Victoria's Secret etc. woohoo! But when you run into those "237 dollars at The Mole Hole?!? WTH?!" Those are the ones you hate.

All I want for Christmas is another Christmas where we don't end up with any debt.

RossMAN will be in here soon to remind everyone that Amazon just starting selling Old Navy clothes online and you get a $30 GC with a $50 purchase!


In fact MrsSkoorb posted in that thread!


Just think, she could have bought the same stuff from Amazon, and you could have used the $30 GC to get GTA3: Vice City! :D

No worries Skoorb. If I make it to Birmingham, I'll buy you a beer. It'll be ok.

Skoorb, I know what you are going through, except my wife uses our debit card so it comes straight out of our checking account. WAMU updates frequently. :(

I've been wearing EB polo shirts for about 2 weeks straight :)

Traffic around the Galleria(mall that is 2 minutes away from where Skoorb and I live)is unimaginable during Christmas shopping. i was in Atlanta traffic every day. 1-75, 1-85, GA 400... nothing compares to the area around the Galleria during Christmas. Hopefully the I-459 ramp will help alleviate traffic some, but people still use roads by my house as cut throughs to hit highway 150 by the Galleria. :frown:

Oh hell yes. I ordered like 15 of them, for a total of 18 during their late summer sale ($19.50 to $15) with another 20% off.

Their shorts are wonderful as well.
