Ok, I'm in. Where are the Eastsiders meeting? This thread is all over the place. Is it still at Whole Foods in Bellevue at 12:00?

Also, is there a list of toys being requested? I heard on the news last night that a lot of places that usually do these toys for tots things are having trouble this year because of all the recalls. I'd like to get something that would make things as easy as possible for the people that have to check these things.

 

hi matt!

yep! the eastsiders are on for 12:00 noon at whole foods, bellevue.....back parking lot.

as for the list of toys....not so sure. i think i'll be safe with barbie! lol! i hope i don't see the pink barbie boxster and want one for myself while i'm at it. i already have the barbie vw beetle and ferrari. =)

 

david,

here is the eastsiders list so far:

jody
jeff h.
matt

 

WhoaWhoaWhoa, Girlie! Who you callin' "East Sider"?

 

I thought it was a good enough excuse

Believe me when I say...I need this. I'm actually going up by myself, my girlfriend is back in Wisconsin.

If anyone feels like making the drive, feel free to come up!

 

jeff,

lol! well, you've been doin' a fair share of hangin' out with the 6speed eastsiders! we're trying to convert you. wink*

 

Actually,

I'll be attending, It's a bit late to drive all the way up to BLAINE and I won't be able to do a whole hell of a lot up there by the time I get there at 10pm, so I may as well go on the drive toy run then follow the bellingham bmw guys back up I5.

 

Matty, want to go to Belle Square at 11am and get some toy shopping done? I hear they're having a sale on Bongs.

 

I'll be there...hopefully with the loving UNFWBL mascot sitting shotgun.

 

I couldn't figure it out myself, so Steve and I are meeting Jason and Troy at the P&R off of I-5 at exit 147 at about 1:30.

 

Thanks for the call Jeff. Unfortunetly, I have to work a conf in DT Seattle. Doesn't look I will be able to make it. Sorry Jody.

 

I mean it shouldn't take 5 or 6 pages of posts to gather up 4 or 5 people.

 

I agree, that's why I posted about the 2 meeting spots for Eastside people and for Seattle people. Pretty straightforward now.

I thought about Bahama Breeze, but since that's the mall parking lot and around lunchtime, I chose the bowling alley across the street.

I will be there about 12:45 to meet up with the rest of the Seattle drivers. Even though I'm an Eastsider myself, Southcenter is closer for me.

Ben and Jag, hope to see you at Southcenter tomorrow as well as the rest of you meeting at 12:00 in Bellevue. Just nice to all roll in together and not have to park by the Scions.

See you all tomorrow.

.... and I *know* that it'll not be *his* wedding LOL LOL

Ray's far too sartorial to consider driving shoes that might not match his slacks

I was considering coming out for the TfT deal -- depending on the weather, and mood, I might make it...

 

I will see if I can get the afternoon off work otherwise I will try and stop by Whole Foods at noon since that would be during my lunch time.
