I went to all the Christmas fairs at the churches in Peterborough yesterday and they put up a piece of tape across the door to the toy room....they said that the toy sales were for children only :( :( I couldn't go in and look for smurfs :( :( I was ready to pay a kid to go in and look for me. I can't believe they would do that!!!

Yea but arn't you a child at heart? I know I am. Even when I am not looking for Smurfs the toy dept was always my favorite. I think mainly because I didn't have many toys as a child, and I always like to see what kinds of toys I never got a chance to play with.

Yes, I am a kid at heart! I love going through the toy deptartment too and looking at all the Christmas decorations even though I have so many that I can't even fit all of them on the tree! :)
I don't know what those grouchy ladies at the fairs were thinking doing that. With the economy the way it is that's all some people can afford for their kids this year.

:eek:

That's a uhh... weird thing to do.

Couldn't they have just limited the amount of a certain kind of item you wanted to buy? Like, no more than 3 of one item? :-?
