I was able to walk out the door for under $35. That's for party supplies, a few decorations and ballons. I even got my son a HUGE Elmo ballon ordered!! He'll love it! That has to be a Party City record ($35) for me.
Since I save all the unused party supplies in the pantry, I will be able to use some of those (large plates, flatwear, etc) this weekend. Plus, since my son is only turning 2, we'll just be having a small family gathering with snacks, cake and play time with cousins. I don't think anyone will care I didn't buy the large Elmo plates and instead used the large blue plates from last year, or that we're using 3 types of forks. Just remember, when it comes to kids parties, think of the "big" picture. Spending less will be best!

My Little Man is 4 1/2 and I have yet to buy the character plates and cups for any of his Birthday parties yet!! I am all for buying the pinata, the party bags, the party hats, all the fun stuff...but plates, cups, and napkins...no way!! 8 pltaes for $3.00 That would cost me a small fortune!! LOL I just buy regular plates, cups, and napkins and they have worked perfectly for the parties!!
My Little Man has not said a word about them...LOL LOL All he cares about is the fun stuff!!! Ohh and of course the gift too!!
