Lucy, JPC: Was a fun day yesterday. Glad everyone was participating and having fun. Seemed like old times on here! However.....Several times during the day yesterday those reindeer kept showing available and then sold out, back and forth. Again this morning they were there so I broke down and ordered them. We'll see if the order actually gets processed but I just couldn't resist them anymore. I was so good last night but this morning was another day!!
Good Morning MTH,
It was a good day yesterday for what little bit of time I got to spend here. Looks like everyone had a great time and did plenty of shopping. I just stuck to the cloche and am happy with my decision of changing to the GB house.
Glad you got or hopefully got the reindeer. I was a little disappointed they had sold out before you could get them. Were you in the wine this morning??? LOL You have been good .
From what I saw of the shows, I think Valerie brought in some nice things. Can't wait for the CIJ shows coming up to see what she might have.
Have a great day
JPC

I think last night's wine actually did me a favor. I fell asleep! Other than those two purchases, that's all I did too. I'm sure there will be lots more temptations along the way so figured I shoudl pace myself. There were lots of nice things yesterday. It was fun. Hope you have a good day too.

Hi Lucy! I didn't buy anything yesterday. I would have been in trouble with the 6:00p.m. show, but ended up with a migraine, and just saw the first item or two. I loved the finials they showed early in the day in the champagne. Not sure how I didn't pull the trigger on those... so pretty...

It was for the best I'm sure. Between our own Christmas in July at the store, and another at a bazaar at our church in the fall, I just couldn't imagine where I'd put everything. We also have alot of sentimental pieces. I kept thinking how I probably wouldn't have a place for something I love that we already have, if I buy much more. Sounds sappy, I know, but that's me..... I glad for everyone who found things they loved, and hope they are beyond fabulous when you receive them. pinky

Well, I did the same thing, MTH. I'm seriously thinking of canceling my Reindeer order as I don't need anymore. I need to post a pic of my Reindeer collection. I also got the OTO snowballs in white. So, I got four items yesterday. Too many. :-)

Hi pinky, well you did good and I didn't. I got two TSV, the OTO snowballs in white and the Reindeer. Oh, my, got to stop. :-) I love that you use the treasured pieces and I have a few as well. Enjoy your store sale and don't buy too much. lol

Hi MTH, it was a fun day. I ended up buying more than I intended to, as usual. But, I'll be careful from here on out. Storage is a problem.

Hi all - really enjoyed the shows yesterday and heaing what everyone was getting. I didn't get anything. I really debated on the santa TSV as I love the old fashioned santas, but I passed; it was cute though. I think for me I am really wondering about what will be offered on the big weekend coming up so that is why I didn't get it. I saw the deer pop in and out yesterday too, but decided against them again. really like them, but I have too many sets plus i like it when one is laying and one is standing and this set has both of them standing, so I talked myself out of that one too. I am really hoping val brings more new on the CIJ weekend and can't wait to see the preview! I hope you all post when you get your goodies!!

Hi All: Lucy I didn't realize you had gone back and got the deer. To be honest, since all I got was the deer and the church, I don't think I did too badly. I really tried to be good and I think for me those two items were enough. I did think hard about the snowballs, but didn't reach for the button fast enough and the color I wanted disappeared. I hesitated because I am really tired of buying batteries. I'd rather have my reindeer than spend extra money on batteries. Justification is a fun thing isn't it???

Kel you showed tremendous restraint but I understand your reasoning. Just wish I had that willpower sometimes.

Pinky hope you are feeling better. Migraines are no fun!!

Well rest up everyone. We get to do it again on CIJ weekend!

I can't edit this for some reason, so sorry about the typos. I seem to make so many more on this new forum than before, wonder why.

I did it this morning too. I hope we aren't disappointed either. I got last year's deer set on an "as is" price later in the season, but I really wanted to get these for some reason. Let me know what you think of them when yours arrive.
