Wow Barb, that is a great idea, and a very inexpensive project!!!!! Good for you!  Jillie, yep pants seem to be getting shorter and shorter.....I went to fashion bug not that long ago and was told that they quit making tall jeans.....well there went the business I was giving to them.....I mean, there are a lot of tall women out there, and it seems that many young girls are taller and taller nowadays... Weezie, I found jeans today that fit great!!!! Got them at wally world for 22 bucks....they are even levis!!!! Who knew WW had levis??LOL They are tall, low rise, boot cut jeans with stretch.....they are perfect....I'm so happy....They are super long.....probably because the waist is so low, but I don't care, I love them.....yippee......

I can get them at Wally~World for about
$15.00..................
Or they are on both the QVC and HSN, for
a tad bit more + s&h, I've never got them there.
But they are great, come in petit, and big sizes
and the extra length is there on the bottom,
but never bothered me, they look ok on top of
a shoe or boot....
Talk about a great fit, I love them..
No more, let's just say, not being able to breath! 
Weezie Weezie, Let's hear it for Spandex!!!!! My husband has a problem....he consistantly talks about how his clothes have *shrunk* from being washed!!! NOT!!!  I love the stretch denim....it's nice to be able to breathe again!!!!! Barbara

Jillie they are speaking of Walmart!!!! Wally World is just a name they came up with....I know it took me awhile to figure it out as well!  We have tons of them around...not sure about Hollywood! You can do a Walmart search and see where the closest one is to you. Don't expect the garden dept. people to know ANYTHING about plants. I make a once a month trip for the necessities and of course plants are considered a necessity!!!!

Catlover and Jillie~ You two are too much! I started seeing the store mentioned as Wally World because some websites don't allow you to put actual store names - they don't allow any advertising or slamming on the sites. So people got used to the nick-names. Have you ever heard people refer to: "the big orange box"? know what that is???

I originally started calling it Wally~World because it was trying to find the prices on anything was like finding WALDO, or where's Waldo. My sister~in~law took me to that store, say about 9 years ago for the first time, oooh~ooh, I saw some neat things, and it seemed like everything I picked up there were no markings for the price or where it sat on the shelf....It was quite frustrating... And you don't want to hear the rest of my tale.. Loz and I have had many conversations on that store. We both miss AMES!!!! And DO NOT GET ME STARTED ON THE GARDEN SECTION AT OUR LOCAL WALLY~WORLD!   <img border="0" alt="[tongue]" title="" src="graemlins/tongue.gif" /> :p :p What a JOKE! And with the Ames gone, they've got pretty much free reign with prices!!! Weezie

Jillie,
Do you have those stores near you???
Those pants are very nice...
No more pinching and binding.
When you bend, you can still have a breath
and you don't pass out on the way down...Ha! LOL!

Do you easterns have a Kohl's yet....it is kinda like a Mervyn's but better prices. They are always having sales....and if you know a senior citizen take them on their day and get an extra 10% off. Sometimes they have 50%-60% off and clearance stuff is 70% off. Plus if you apply for a card the first purchase is another 10% off. Lets just say both my kids and myself now have a card and I take my mom with me!lol Some of it brand name items...you have to be selective. My son got his comforter, silk sheets, down pillows etc. from there!

Karen, That's like how Ames was, 10% senior discount all day Tuesday!. And sales, red and green tags, up to 75% off then the 10% discount tooooooooo.. Mother and I used to go alot. When they would change seasonal items, She'd just about clear the rack. But you couldn't go wrong, nice, brand new items for $1.75....couldn't beat it! She'd buy stuff for my oldest, and he'd have things to grow into....they've all been hand~me~downs now to the wee~one, but, the shame of it is, when we stopped buying from there, the oldest has now run out of clothes!!!

I really like Value City and Ollies, and Gabriel Brothers.....any of you hear of those????? And Big Lots too.......Our mall is putting a super wallyworld in there, I'm disgusted....we don't need another stupid WW....I wanted a target or TJ maxx....or something different..... Last year I literally walked around the garden section in walmart deadheading plants....nobody takes care of them, half the time you go to buy them and they are dying.....or I have watched them water the flowers outside in the full heat of the sun before.....they should all go to gardening school to learn what to do.....makes me MAD The inadequate plant care is what has made me decide to start some seeds....at least I'll know they'll be taken care of.....

We have 2 Tar~Jays within 10 minutes of each other here!!! Guess where I was at 5:15a.m. on Black Friday this past Nov?!? LOL!!! We are also inundated with Kohl's!!! There is a Kohl's store here within 20 minutes of each other in any direction, and then some!!! It was great when I was doing my daughter's bat mitzvah last year - got the kids' placecard holders at them - went from one to the next to the next, til I ended up with the 45 that I needed! All in a days work! They were cute springy butterflies that were picture holders, but worked out wonderfully for placecards, and then as a favor to take home for pictures! I LOOOOOOOOOVE Kohl's! I also got most of my holiday gifts there, and even got a free $15 certificate for myself just for being one of the first 500 to arrive one day!

We have a Kohl's not too far away and after that rave review, I really must get over there.
I don't care if it's the fanciest fashion store or the lowliest yard sale. I'm there, looking for that bargain.

I love all the talk about the comfortable stretch jeans. Is there anyone else here that use to laugh with your friends and say you'd rather die then wear stretch pants and now thats all your waist wants to wear.Just one of the million times
I've had to eat my own words.
