    I can not believe how fast Christmas came this year. I have no time to send out cards and I have about 2 gifts ready. i'm not even feeling the Holiday spirit.

    I was done before Thanksgiving this year because I was due to have our 2nd child on Thanksgiving! I knew ahead of time I wasn't getting out to shop much during the last month of the year so I'm so thankful to be finished!! :) Merry Christmas to all of you!!!

    Most of my shopping is done. Just a few things to pick up here and there. Like stocking stuffers. I always forget the candy!

    i agree! there is nothing on the shelves this year, I did most of my shopping online since the stores were sooooo depressing. Even holiday decorations were few and far between and I looked everywhere from Walmart to Home Depot to get outdoor decorations and found none. It seems odd that everyone is complaining about it and the stores didn't seem to project for the disappointment since they understocked their shelves. Maybe it's a good sign that we are coming out of a recession.

    I have always been a last minute shopper because usually my bank account dictates when I can actually go! But, I still manage to get it all done and find some good deals, too!

    I buy little to nothing at physical stores for gifts. I do almost all my shopping online. Some of my purchases have been made and have arrived. I'm STILL waiting for the gift suggestion list from my daughter-in-law for my three grandchildren in that family. It's very frustrating when, knowing I need shipping time, they are not helpful about getting me their ideas in time. Children find it not so pleasant to open gifts with nothing but an image of what will be arriving sometime later in the mail. *sigh*

    Amazon.com is my new best friend! How easy my shopping was this year. I can breath easy and actually enjoy the holidays now.

    Have purchased most of our gifts online, need to pick up a few stocking stuffers. Each year we purchase a Christmas ornament and write the year and the grand childs name on it . They will have a nice collection of special ornaments for there own tree.
