Have you ever shopped at Oriental Trading's website? I have never ordered from them before. I have been looking around on there tonight though and there are some things I think I might get. Do you buy from Oriental Trading? What kinds of things do you get?

I love Oriental Trading. I shop their website often. I run a daycare, so I get different craft items to make with the kids I watch. I have also gotten party supplies from there for my kids birthdays. Once I was invited to a Luau party and I went right to Oriental Trading site and bought myself a grass skirt and some other luau things.

One year my sister and i bought a bunch of christmas crafts from OT and made them and then took them to a craft sala and sold them. We actually made some money on them.

My son has been wanting to do crafty things lately, so I was thinking about buying some of them for him. I think he will enjoy them. Maybe I will let him help pick them out.

I've seen the Oriental Trading company catalogs and I think they are so cool. I know a teacher I had once ordered things for Christmas to go to her students. They sell in a bulk that is perfect for teachers, or parents with a lot of little ones, especially if they want stocking stuffers. But darn mylot for not fixing your notification yet! I'm just glad I happened to find your discussion.

When my kids were still in school and I was in the PTA and Mother's Club and various other organizations, we shopped there for prizes for the students. We also got prizes for a game booth we had at a fundraiser. They have a lot of really nice gifts and party favors and the prices aren't bad either. You have to buy by the dozen or the gross but if you are sponsoring a big event, it is worth it. I still get their catalogs years after all my kids graduated!!

I've browsed but never bought. However I do know of people who have bought all the stuff for their kids' parties there. It's a good place to get that kind of stuff for a larger group. And you can get the full theme.

You are like me. You look, but you do not buy. I have looked at them many times before and I have even added things to the shopping cart, but I have never checked out.

I've shopped there a couple of times in the past. I got the Mardi Gras beads and a few other party favors. They are really fast shipping and great customer service. Enjoy whatever you purchase!

I have note shopped there yet. I do not usually do online purchasing though I alway do online purchase on some materials and books for my safety training. I will try to check it out. Thus the store also cater to international buyers. As you can see I am from the Philippines.

When my two older kids were younger, I used to buy stuff there for their birthdays to put in the goody bags. I also used to buy crafts there occasionally for my girl scout troop. And also when I was a room mom at their school. I could buy a lot of little things there for not much money it was nice.
