I think I'm the only child in my family that has never received a snowboard for christmas. At some point everyone has gotten a new one, and I'm stuck with the one my oldest brother learned on in 94, and I doubt it was new then.

I got a $25 gift card to Tower Records from Ed at work's Secret Santa, a $15 gift card to Tower from Monkey, and a $25 gift card to Bath & Body Works from Monkey's mommy along with some cool anti-bacterial moisturizing hand soap from there.
So yeah... I have lots of money/gift cards to spend... and no time to spend them. I still have gift cards left from LAST Christmas.
I had gift cards from last Christmas too, and I was using them in Nov/Dec only to find out that some of the balances had declined due to inactivity. I heard that there are lots of cards with declining balances ... evil bastards!!

Ack, that's seriously uncool. The ones I had didn't start declining for another year or so, but I still wanted to spend them (which I did... all of them in one day
).

It was. I haven't bought that much stuff in...... probably 5 years. I went shopping at Kohl's, too, and spent like $100 there.

do you have a good employee discount?

by nikki4982
Pretty decent, yeah. It's 15% for softlines (clothes) and 10% for hardlines (everything else). Then there's employee shop days where it's usually like 30% softlines and 25% hardlines.
They're pretty good to us... cept for our pay.
