It's listed with Australian cash. Well the exchange rate must have changed, because the listing price hasn't changed, but my US money did! Not by much, but I was very confused for a moment.
Ok so I know its stupid but I'm uber excited I finally figured out what to do with my hair,I can pull it in to mini piggy tails and use a scarf and tie knots around them and cover my head too that way the scarf helps hold down fly-aways that won't fit in the pig tails. It looks super cute,but reading this back it sounds odd. Lol So look for me the girl with the wierd hair....
yeah keep what clarity said in mind about the sunscreen.... i've burned where my hair was parted before and it hurts soooo bad, and was really gross when it was peeling in my hair. ew.
Fyi ladies; I've noticed most stores have their leggings on clearance. I've stocked up and plan on cutting them right above the knee to wear under my skirts.

Take care when doing this - the last thing you want is for your cut-off leggings to roll up and become a wad of fabric between your legs. I have cheap bike shorts that do this and it's SUCH a pain. I'm either uncomfortable or constantly tugging beneath my skirt.
Those headbands are way cute.... AND i've just taken up knitting again, and have a ton of "leftover" yarn (i.e. little pieces that wont make up an entire item... juuust enough for a headband???? ) Think I may have to get on that. In fact - I'll make a couple, post them if they turn out okay, and if you ladies like em - I'll send em to you for the cost of postage! I really just want to clear out my knitting bag. great great great idea.

Has anyone used it? If not, I'll be the guinea pig. On t.v. they sell it for $14.99, but i saw it at wal-greens for $9.99. I have read mixed reviews about it.
^ it hurts more than they say it does. granted, I have only used the little one for lip fuzz and under the arms... but I wouldn't do it again on those areas. The legs may be less sensitive.

What a GREAT idea! I have so much yarn it borders on shameful. Are you working off a pattern?

super cute right!? but im still a little new to knitting, so following a pattern is a little foreign to me. AND ive had issues with using 2 colors in the past so im a little aprehensive. We'll see though - im anxious to get home so i can work out, then knit! Cant take me more than an evening to knock it out.
Second - I see that you're from here/there/everywhere - and that you are going to see the Whigs and DC this Wednesday? Im not a name dropper really (dont know that many people anyway!) but I am really good friends with DC, and it's super cute to see other people who are fans of theirs! I actually went to high school with all of them, and Brant (bassist) was my hs sweetheart. I remember when he got his first bass guitar!!! So anyhow, super cool to see how they like, have fans!

Did it make your face turn red where you used it?
Yeah, it did, and it seriously felt like I was rubbing sand paper on my skin. I like waxing much better.
So all you lovely ladies have fine taste in fashion and great ideas that i will def. use for my 1st trip to roo BUT i'm not sure I would want to bring new clothers or anything I love too much for fear of it getting ruined. Maybe i'm wrong maybe things aren't as dirty as i'm imagining...So yeah just looking for thoughts on this
All of my clothes were completely wearable after Roo. You're not likely to sit in a mud puddle every day (unless you really want to) but it is dusty and sweaty. I brought a thin blanket and Crazy Creek-style chair into Centeroo and that helps.
It was more my feet that were disgusting, not so much my clothes.

hi everyone! i just finished reading all 132 pages of this thread, and i got a LOT of really good info! i'm not able to make it to roo this year (all good is closer and cheaper for me), but you're seriously making me consider it for next year! i went in 03 & 04, and they were 2 of the best summers i've ever had ;D
Hi Ladies! I'd also like to chime in on wearing new clothes to roo NO - you wont ruin your clothes unless your rolling around in the mud, or having yourself painted. YES - you will be dirty and sweaty, but as long as what you're wearing is machine washable, they'll be just fine once you get home and put em in the laundry. of course, I imagine that none of us "veterans" would recommend wearing expensive clothing, either (hence this thread with all the cute-but-cheap links).
Oooookay. So last night i attempted the knitted headbands... and I learned two things for you other knitters out there: 1 - it IS easier to cast on 50 or so stitches, then knit 8 rows, rather than cast on 8 stitches and go back and forth for 50 rows. took me for-ev-er. 2 - use smaller size needles. my run-o-the-mill gauge 7 (i think they're 7's....) were too big - so now i have 2 headbands that are kind of thick on my head... in fact, one of them is so fluffy, and a pretty pale green, it looks like a caterpillar crown.
I got a coupon for michaels in my email today - so I'll attempt them again after i get some new needles and thinner yarn... maybe i'll post the pics of them so we can all learn what NOT to do if knitting your own headbands...

This made me lol! Karma for attempting to make these headbands and letting us know! I've been trying to learn to crochet for a while now (more like I've tried and given up a few times) but I'm determined to actually learn how and stick with it. So I gave major props to anyone that has the time and patience and knit or crochet
