kadee, I'm disappointed that you will not be shopping for Hanes products for Christmas. Guess I'll have to suffer this week.

Mod, I do a LOT of Hanes shopping through out the year and I always recommend to other ladies to go to onehanesplace.com to look for many items. They are MUCH cheaper than most dept. stores for the exact same items. Their "World's Softest Socks" are one of the best buys you can get there....I have some that are well over 10yrs. old, still going strong & I wear them nearly every week...so washed weekly. So even though they look like they are high priced, once you factor in how long they last it makes them really cheaper than most other socks. They have men's too.

SOLD HBI for a small loss. So now it will probably spring to life. Happens nearly ever time. Such is life. |

Mod, I truly earned last place today ..... probably the worse day on the market I've had in a long time .... practically everything printed in red ink .... the only good thing happened was my internet service installed me a new modum this morning; they said I needed to upgrade. I was hoping it would speed up stuff; but see no differences yet .... guess I'll still blame it on Yahoo .... those are the sheets that seem too slow. It was their idea; not mine... Newwave, that is. ... my internet provider.

We all seem to have picked the wrong stocks, but at least clarkrl and uncle didn't do too bad.
clarkrl finished with the Win and uncle made Show...Congratulations to both.
