My kids are teenagers so will be setting up homes next time I blink and would be good to have all the basics that they will need. I think its a great idea to start christmas shopping early in the sales.<br /><br /><a href="http://westinghouseau.livejournal.com/7109.html" rel="nofollow">Lisa @ Westing House Small Appliances</a>Lisahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10743133422717343188noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6965390616423292590.post-73325407398844379062016-01-26T17:55:05.018-07:002016-01-26T17:55:05.018-07:00Thank you.

I am also glad to know I'm not the only one shopping already. :)Thrifty Mom In Boisehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10503584246610396717noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6965390616423292590.post-14489724140723966232016-01-26T17:52:44.105-07:002016-01-26T17:52:44.105-07:00You had boxes just like me?!

I love it and really enjoy using. I have pieces from my grandma and great grandma's Revereware. Use it every day.

Congratulations of the ...The picture is wonderful! <br />Congratulations of the Christmas start up.<br />I have already started shopping for Christmas also. I found really nice boot socks for 2.50 and bought a couple of them to put back for next year. I am also picking up stocking stuffers as I find them. In addition to that I have started my Christmas fund. I try to save 20 bucks a week from my grocery budget to put back for Christmas. Most weeks I make it, but occasionally I only save 10. If so then just 10 is what goes in the fund. When I buy early gifts, I take it out of my dedicated Christmas money. So far it is working pretty well Anne in the kitchenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01533249631969001657noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6965390616423292590.post-53432823823149748522016-01-26T13:21:01.213-07:002016-01-26T13:21:01.213-07:00I was thinking the same thing about your glasses- ...I was thinking the same thing about your glasses- I like them. :)<br />I had started a hope chest when I was a teenager (it was actually a few boxes but I always wanted an actual antique chest.) I remember seeing a crock pot on clearance at a department store and loving the design on the side. As crazy as it seemed at the time I bought it and now, 25 years later, I use it just about every week. I am so happy that you are starting on hope chests for your girls. The best things that go in there are things that are made especially for them- I have an afghan my grandmother made for me and put in mine. :)<br />Great job on the early Christmas shopping. You have me thinking now that I would be smart to start getting some things if I see a good deal here and there. :)Dawn- Blessed Beyond Measurehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18380049127079259624noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6965390616423292590.post-71939913020557524332016-01-26T11:38:23.738-07:002016-01-26T11:38:23.738-07:00Wow, very impressive.

I had one guess I dropped the ball for my daughter. :-(<br /><br />PS If those are your new glasses, I really like them, and if they aren't new I still really like them. :-DJMDhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03639819967286148205noreply@blogger.com
