ARMY AND SLAMMIE's Crazy Christmas Advent Package Train

[lizardqueen78]

Its here! Its here!

Seriously! I have been waiting since last year's train for this one!

I'm also not "officially" requesting a seat yet lol I need to organize a couple of things before I can focus on wishlist creating!

This looks like tons of fun! I am very interested in riding the teen/kids train for my little sister and I. Just have a question first! When I go to send my package, do I just ask for shipping and insurance? Also since it will be alternating gifts, do I do a wishlist of 30 for both, or just 15 items each?

Hi Couponteen101 most of us on here have a Venture 1 card through Canada Post that gives us expedited shipping for the price of regular shipping plus free insurance. The card is free, you just have to sign up on CP's website. As for your list you could make up 2 lists and indicate you want to alternate days with your sister on the list.

I should have my lists done tonight. I was going to work on them last night but my gallbladder was acting up so I went to bed instead Made sure to add Aleve to my list... those things actually seemed to work!

It's Friday!

Good morning all!

So was soooooo looking forward to the Advent train this year, but I may not be able to take part. Today and tomm. our local car dealership (that I swear by) is having a massive sale and we are going to go check it out and possibly get a new vehicle! Im really excited about it as my car is really running on its last lags and there is only so much "nickle and diming" you can do to a car! Ive been doing my homework on vehicles and there are a couple they have that I maybe interested in, here where you guys come in.....

The 2 they have on their website that im thinking about (they may have something else on the lot not listed) but they have:

1) 2007 Saturn Vue has 115300km on it 4speed Auto FWD

or

2) 2008 Pontiac Vibe has 127216km on it 4speed Auto w/OD FWD

Just looking for other ppl's opinions about these 2

If for whatever reason i cant get a car tomm. Im definately still in for this train!!!

When is comes to used vehicles, I am one of the worst to help someone out at the dealership, I think they are all over priced. I just know what my vehicles go through before they get traded in and what they have asked for them when they went to sell them. BUT based on the assumption that a used vehicle is your best or only option, my thoughts ( for what they are worth) is:
Pick the vehicle that is most closely suited to what you want
See a car proof report to find out if it has been in an accident, and if you can try to find out if it needed any major repairs
I also look at all the hidden places that I can for damage, cleanliness, and for signs of how the vehicle was treated.

Good morning all!

To my dear beautiful Fallenpixels,

i have received and verified confirmation that all packages have been received and feedback has been left on the Halloween train and as such I have removed the notes beside their names . So at your leisure use you can use your magical approval powers.

[cowgirlmama04]

I have read and understand all the “Package Train Rules/Guidelines." I understand if I do not follow the guidelines my name will be added to the consequence list in the sticky."

Do I need to post it again for the girls too?
Thing 1 and 2 both want to join the kids.
