    That's what ours does. We could change it so there's letterboxes on the sides but my mom hates that so we just leave it stretched out.

      Almost the same situation here! But mine was worse...lol.

      School ended Wednesday about 11:00 (halfday). Since school was out, that was the first time in a month that I've had time to work, so I was scheduled for the rest of this week. 2-8 on Wednesday. I got home Wednesday night, fell asleep, and woke up Thursday just in time to go back to work, a 12-8 shift. My 12-8 shift ended up changing to 12-12 (damn I wish they paid overtime). I made it home and fell asleep, only to get up 5 hours later to go back to work yesterday morning. When I got off work yesterday, I had to immediately get ready for church and the annual xmas eve party. I had absolutely NO presents for anybody at this point.

      I get home from the xmas eve party around 9:00, change fast, and race off for Walmart - closed with a cop blocking the door with his car. So low-and-behold... Super K is open! Damn it was packed! Did you see the Super K brand useless gifts that were already packaged and were priced 10x more than they were worth? I bought a lot of those! Well, somehow I managed to get all of my xmas shopping done from 9:30 to 10:30 at Kmart, who thankfully were open until Midnight (and they sure met their quota last night).

      Funny that we both had last minute shopping at Kmart on Xmas eve.

          PITA!

            It would not be worthwhile - $45 deductable when I can fix everything myself for less.

                Thursday night, I went to Wal-Mart to christmas shop and ended up with Mt. Dew, Tang and Dawn of the Dead.All of which were for myself. Then I stopped by Best buy and bought myself The Best of Pantera and my mom a $30 gift certificate(she wants one of those Roomba things). When I realized everything was closed friday night I just burned CD's for everyone else...
