Looking for all the empty kegs from around this growers area or within a couple miles radias of this growers place in RI so I can return them for deposit and pay for my kids Christmas this year,They both need the playstation 3 and they both need the 350.00 Nike's like all the other kids have. Oh, and gas money to get back in forth from work. Times are tuff for me this year year and Id hate for my kids to have the worst Christams of their lives if I could not buy them these presents. My kids say they have to have these items or they cant go on anymore and face there friends to have to wear the 200.00 pair of the ''Nike Air Jordan Sky Force in Your Face and Rebound'' basketball shoes. What kid would want to wear them kind of shoes? *Cough*

Thanks for all your coroperation,
and Happy Holidays,

Sorry, I wasnt paying attention and posted this on the wrong board, I must be upset about my kids having to wear the 200.00 dollar pair of shoes instead and all them mean kids making fun of them at school.

Brooks, been there, and when they get older. It gets more expensive, just a heads up for ya! And people wonder why i sometimes work 2 weeks straight 12hr a day ,once it was 17 months no days off or holidays. I tell ya though its taken its toll on me, and i'm no spring chicken anymore, and i dont have no desk job. one donation i made last year, to pay bills, and pay for the donation i had to work 97hrs in 7 days. God thank you for granting me the streath to carry on, and God bless all of you!
Happy holidays
The Reinsvolds ps. I'm on the wrong board too!

I was kinda lucky growing up, I lived with my grandparents since age 4 after my mother and father got divorced. So it was kinda like what ever I needed my grandparents made sure I had, just like most grandparents are to there grandchildren. Christmas time when I was a kid was the best and I feel real lucky to have them Christmas's as a kid, I was luckier then most because my Grandmother worked at Marx Toys as a nurse in the factory. She got alot of great deals( alot free ) on the Toys at the Marx factory, so anything made by Marx I usually got it for Christmas. I just wish I had most of them toys today,you see how much people are paying for them old toys??? Shesh!!

Oh, I never had them Kroger shoes specials as a kid thank goodness,lmao

Wow, this stupid post I made is becoming serious now, from beer kegs, to shoes, to a zulu tribe hunter, to Christams, LOLLOL!!!!

HA!!
We were so poor the cars my mother drove cost less than those shoes.
I remember her buying a vega for $50 that lasted us a couple years. LOL
We didn't have color TV until I was about 13 and at one time I actually wore a pair of tennis shoes we found in an old box THAT WERE MY DADS when he was in High School.

AHHHH!!!

Good Times .

I just remember my mother making three kids bathe in the same bath water to save money, and smoking in the car with the windows rolled up to save on gas mileage.

Yeah those 454 Chevrolets did so much better on fuel when the windows were up.
