  1. Shopping for 10 (11 if husbands work does a secret Santa this year).

     

    Only shopping for members of the household (Husband, myself and 8 kids aged 25 to 5yrs). We do 5 gifts each (something you want, something you need, something to wear, something to read and something to watch) plus stockings (a fruit, a candy, a toy and a couple of personal care products). We stopped buying for extended family and friends years ago. It was just to much when there were 30 to 50 people and more than half of them kids. Before Covid we just gather and eat and play games and have fun. There were a few grumpies the first year but everyone had so much fun that they embraced the change. Last year we ate and played games on zoom and it turned out fun. Going to do the same thing this year.

  2. It's 4 pages of meh, blah, snooze and indifference.   :gdsleep::gdsleep3:  :indiffere:blahblah:

    I don't get it do they not want to sell product. :confused:

     

    Ok update

     

    After seeing the extra black friday pages online, It's a much better sale.

    I still think that the pre-black friday "friendsgiving sale" was much better.

    But there are still a few things I want to pick up. :juggle:

  4. Meh, same items as everyone else...I think BB and B is for the people who don't want to brave the crowds at Walmart/Target and hate going into the mall (unless the store is in the mall)

     

    Not necessarily it's also good for people that want household items that aren't on sale at Walmart/Target. Or that aren't cheep and need to be replaced every year. We stock up on OXO stuff every year and Kcups (biggest selection outside of Keurig website). Plus my mother in law always wants some odd little kitchen gadget.  

    Ulta

    I'm hoping that this is just the stuff that will be online. I'm hoping that the actual paper ad will have more stuff. If it doesn't this is a pretty sad ad. :unsure:

  6. Five presents for each child. We do the want, need, wear, read & Santa. Sometimes there are multiple items for each category, such as a book series or a game system and a few games. 

    Ulta

    I'm so looking forward to the Ulta bf ad. I replace and stock up on my make up this time of year. I hope the ad comes out soon. I even tried asking at the store I go to and nope they couldn't/wouldn't tell me anything. :(
