I find the Game On Santa commercials from Best Buy to be mean-spirited. The mom's are trying to outdo Santa by buying gifts from Best Buy. But when they confront Santa, they are actually mean about it. I already don't care for Best Buy, but these commercials make me even less likely to shop there. I don't care for the message that giving gifts is a competition and I don't care for the idea of being mean to Santa, because he usually gives better gifts than you do.
I got several free trial size items from Walmart yesterday using coupons. 3 bottles of shampoo, 1 body wash, 1 deodorant and 2 packages of Tide.
I used the last of my RX reward money at King Soopers today - approx $18. I transferred another coupon but they said I had met the max and they wouldn't give me another reward - bummer!
When I was at Walmart I saw the classic xmas DVD The Year without a Santa Claus. That's my favorite xmas movie, I never see it played on TV anymore, so I bought it for $10. The only problem is that after watching it I have the 'heat miser' song stuck in my head for 3 days afterwards. 
I finished reading my book Eternity by Jude Devereaux. Romance - pretty good.

Lux, I'm with you on those Bear books. I got one once at a garage sale and read it (always read them to myself before I read them to the kids) and threw it away. I didn't even try to find a good home for it like I normally would, because I didn't feel like passing on that sort of disrespectful book to some other child.
