Christmas Gifts????

How many have you bought thus far?

Me=nada!

I do have decorations including table decor that I bought last year on sale so I am super happy about thatSmile

Re: Christmas Gifts????

  • We don't really do gifts anymore. It became too much of buying something just to buy something, so we all agreed to stop. Everyone but the MIL that is. She is too greedy and selfish, so of course she expects something.

    Other than that, we only buy for our nephews. Since we are going with them to Disney at Thanksgiving, we will just get them something of their choice then. They are out of state so we don't see them on xmas anyway.

  • I couple small gifts for our nephew, but thats it so far :(
  • I am very proud of myself so far.  I have about 5 people totally bought for and many of the remaining people on my list will be receiving wedding photos as part of their gifts so there isn't much else to buy.  I am saving those little gifts for black friday deal shopping!

     

    PS.  Anyone have any awesome gift ideas for your husbands?  I want to get something really fun. 

  • Actual gifts purchased: 1. And really, it's a total accident because I bought a photo frame for MIL last year and DH meant to give it to his grandmother and never did. So...technically zero. :-)
  • All done shopping for Christmas gifts. I shop all year round so I disperse the funds out over time. Which is good this year since I was laid off 2 months ago.
  • None!  I keep thinking about how I need to think about it, but I always put it off.

    Plus my mom's and FIL's birthdays are in about two weeks...I really need to jump on it!

  • my dad and great niece are finished and i'm halfway done with my dh's gifts.
    Kris....I'm finally a Mrs! 10/11/08
  • My niece is done. Bought her an Easy Bake and accessories

    Pre-ordered the new Stephen King book for my step-dad.

  • I know what I'm getting for everyone, but have only purchased a few things so far - maybe 3 or 4.

    I do, though, have all the birthday gifts for the next 2 months (we have 5 family members/friends that have birthdays between Thanksgiving and New Years Day).

  • I'm about 75% done. I still need to get DH's, and I am making cookies for a few families that I (obviously) have not done yet.

  • I am jealous of those who have a bunch done. I need to come up with ideas for everyone which I will hopefully do this weekend. I usually get a lot of done on Black Friday.

  • Almost done DS, just need to do his stocking now. TRU has had some great sales in the past few weeks.

    Not sure what I'm doing for DH....The rest of the family we just do stockings, haven't started that yet but have some ideas.

  • I just bought my first gift today!

  • Zero. I plan to finish this weekend and next.
  • I have twelve picture frames for a my Dad's entire family that was taken at our wedding, now just have to make copies of the photo. Nanny has seen the wedding pictures and has ruined her gift because she wants all of them now, but I wont let her have them until Christmas. My cousin wants me to give at least one to Nanny now and I dont want too! 

    My IL's are not easy to shop for, and I have no idea what they need although we just lived with them for three months. 

    Grandpa is easy, we are all going in for a new recliner for him.

     Daddy and brother are easy, I just order shrits from Cabels out of their Bargin Cave.

    Mom is pretty easy but havent found what I want for her yet.

    DH is another problem all together!  I know what he wants but it wont be a suprise because he is so picky that he has to know what you are getting him so that he can say if he wants it or would use it!

    BL in difficult but will be out at sea so I will probably will get him a gift card.

    So all in all Im not very far along!
