Well, looky here. In my inbox today was an announcement from Paris’ Boutique about the brand new Mommy Mixer event! You guys know the drill. And guess what, there’s even a discount. Instead of $100, this one time only, the registration fee will be just $50. Yes, that’s 50% off! And there will be a 10% discount on all Paris merchandise purchased that evening.
It doesn’t take a genius to read between the lines and deduce that the first and evidently now non-existent Mommy Mixer was a big flop. The half-off Mommy Mixer, in case you’re curious, will be on May 21. I wonder if the babysitters will be encouraged to provide their services at half-off too. Giggles.

Wonder where they are planning on getting the sitters at since the U of I will be long done by then?

Congratulations on exposing the Mommy Mixer for what it is and isn’t — it is a very expensive cup of coffee or diet drink, and certainly isn’t much of an improvement over finding a sitter through word of mouth, CL, or newspaper ads.
Wonder what the mommies here really think it would be worth? $10? $25? $36?
Now if they could combine a Mommy Mixer with a baby clothing exchange … that’d be something!

Thank God. I’m glad to hear Chambana isn’t filled with morons.

Hee, hee! They should have listened (or maybe they did and that’s why the price is reduced). This isn’t a big city market and we won’t pay big city prices.
I still don’t know a single person who is actually going.
