You can spot one on nordstrom.com or similar place. If Gingham carries those, they are so luxurious and cushy (feel them!) and also, come in subtle colors like 'mocha' in addition to the standard baby colors. About $65.00! The kind of thing you would never buy yourself...it's like, baby blankets are a dime a dozen, right? And then, when your daughter is 9 and still cuddling up with hers at night, you wish you'd had the foresight to help her attach to something prettier than a coral-colored polyester rag. ha!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12364613.post-1139431370023535212006-02-08T14:42:00.000-06:002006-02-08T14:42:00.000-06:00That's a good way to recycle your unwanted gift ca...That's a good way to recycle your unwanted gift cards. This is from a local boutique, though, and it would hurt my aunt's feelings if I didn't spend it just the way she intended--on something absolutely beautiful but not necessarily useful. I'm sure there's something I need hidden in there!Meredithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08455517419708043340noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12364613.post-1139424163264810012006-02-08T12:42:00.000-06:002006-02-08T12:42:00.000-06:00This comment has been removed by a blog administrator.Meredithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08455517419708043340noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12364613.post-1139420371129891932006-02-08T11:39:00.000-06:002006-02-08T11:39:00.000-06:00I was thinking along the same line as Sarah was.

It amazes me how on Ebay some people will bid up to like $98 for a $100 gift card! LOL! If you have a craigslist in your area you could try that too. Take the cash and get everything you want in the colors you want and have some money left over! <BR/>~jerriMom of thirteenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09537459011257295414noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12364613.post-1139408988416365072006-02-08T08:29:00.000-06:002006-02-08T08:29:00.000-06:00I think I would sell your gift card on Ebay for $5...I think I would sell your gift card on Ebay for $50.00 and then go to Target and buy 4 crib sheets with the money! :)Sarah E.https://www.blogger.com/profile/09295872209017702953noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12364613.post-1139347967750284142006-02-07T15:32:00.000-06:002006-02-07T15:32:00.000-06:00Wow...just...wow.

I thought I'd bring my crib skirt and paint chip and try another day...at least the sticker shock will have worn off by then.
