Holiday gifts!

So I am pretty excited to say I have almost all my shopping done. The last people are the SAME.LAST.PEOPLE always.

My dad, my sisters husband (BIL), my husbands brother (BIL, and my FIL.

UGH!

But for H, I am psyched. last night he was saying how much he wanted the tv to broadcast old simpsons...so i got him simpsons season 6,7,8. Ya! Also got him so Fred Perry swag b/c he loves him and an Alton Brown cookbook.

My mom, MIL, SIL, and my sister- I all got some jewelry (i big puffy heart bidz.com-- check it out!), and depending on who- scarves, purse hook things, etc.

My nephews- super easy.

Now, I picked up a trafalgar leather business card case- I was going to either give it to H (but since the simpson gift and other stuff, i don't think I need to now); I suppose I could givew that to my dad for his business cards bc he doesn't have anything for that...and maybe something else small.

But FIL and the BILs...No idea. I always do some BoSox/PAtriots thing. It's getting old! Hmmmm....

AND....I am way below my budget this year. Woohoo!

And the reason I am almost done is Hanukkah is Dec 1 this year.

Re: Holiday gifts!

  • Sounds like you're in good shape.  I'm so bad with shopping I wish I could do it earlier, but it's just never happens.
  • I wanted to get shopping done while I'm unemployed, so it's all done except for my dad! Everything hasn't arrived in the mail, yet, but I think the last of it shipped today, and the next to last is due to arrive tomorrow. For my dad, we may pitch in with my mom since she wants to get him something fairly expensive and is broke. But even then, I think we'd give him something small, too. I've got plenty of ideas, though. Just need to go to a sporting goods store...

  • Yay!

    I just order a gift for my IL's-decided on a webcam so we can Skype together once the baby comes (they live 5 hours away).  I'm excited to give it to them.  I think they are going to love it.

  • I'm about halfway done, but wish I was further! I love when I get my shopping done early and this year it will be awesome if I can pull it off with all of the baby to dos and hosting Christmas.
