You buy it so early that I always end up having problems to return my gift

PANDURITO said:

Damn! I wish I was as organised as so many of you seem to be!

I better get moving!

Christmas just creeps up on ya.

Nobody is getting a fucking thing from me this year. So yea, I've done what I'm gonna do already

SHOW OFF!

I told hubby..this yr lets not buy each other anything b/c x-mas is for kids...i mean REALLY...Isnt it?

& then we can go insane at the boxing week sales.

Not I, said the chicken.

I did half of my shopping already.I'm going out again on Friday to finish it.

I went,and tried to finish it up today,but when I got home,and looked at my to get list I realized I still have 4 others to get. Not to bad though.

I'm pleading poverty, truthfully this year. Those that love me will just have to accept it. The economy has taken a severe toll. I am happy, but I hope those around me understand. I can't afford trips and I can't afford gifts... hell, i can't afford cards.

I think Ive done far more then my share nonetheless, its slightly unsettling for others sakes , not so much my own.

I usually go all out,and try to get people really nice gifts. Last year I got both my sister,and my one sisters bf iPod shuffles,but this year I just can't do it. I'm sure your loved one will understand, after all the stuff isn't what where supposed to be celebrating anyway.

My family is packing up the car and heading out to the malls this Sunday! List in hand, debit card in hand, tennis shoes on, starbucks every few hours!

My daughter is getting one, maybe two, educational computer game(s) from me to play. Everyone else gets a card.

I hope to knock this out this weekend.

My mom and I had an agreement that we would not exchange gifts this year. We were both traveling to see one another for Thanksgiving so we were going to consider that our gifts. When we were together she gave me a gift bag and said it was just something little (usually gives me an ornament every year). So..... the next day she was dropping her film off to be developed and said something about wanting a digital camera. We tried to sneak and buy her one in the store later that day, she sort of walked up on us as she was buying it. I waited until Thanksgiving morning to give it to her. She was pleased with it. So now I am done my Christmas shopping.

All I have so far is gag gifts

So I'm on my way out the door right now
to get the "real stuff", whatever that means
