CEO of Walmart US is giving an interview right now on the Today Show so maybe soon….

The hoodies are awesome Brad! Thanks for offering them! I’m wearing mine inside th house right now because it’s cold outside. Because I’m in the South I refuse to turn the heat on since it’s going to be 80 degrees again on Friday.

I’m in healthcare so there is no holiday unless you work at a physician’s office. Last year my place of employment opened up the clinic until noon so I got to leave about 2 pm. Otherwise for most of my career I either worked or had to take a PTO day for BF.

Loot! That’s what my sister and I always called our gifts too, even in to young adulthood. :)

Yay you!

I only buy gifts for 3 adults so I set my budget anywhere from $75 to $100 per person. Sometimes I go overboard with one or all. LOL I don’t count coworkers since we always ended up doing something different each year but usually had a $10 limit. I tend to spend more on myself this time of year because I don’t set a budget for myself so I really need to do that this year.

Congrats to the winners! Lots of great gift ideas posted!

Awwww, you should be proud! My grandmother quilted and crocheted all her life so we have many hand-quilted quilts and many crocheted blankets. I fondly remember her trying to teach me one day and she eventually gave up on me! :)

For anyone. Birdie personal safety alarm. You can never be too safe when out and about anymore. This is easy to activate and deactivate. Choice of colors too. Great for kids as well when walking to/from school or just out riding their bikes. https://www.amazon.com/Shes-Birdie-Original-Personal-Women-130dB/dp/B08TT47Y99/ref=sr_1_1_sspa?crid=2N6WWNM3DC1WF&keywords=birdie%2Bpersonal%2Bsafety%2Balarm&qid=1665879183&qu=eyJxc2MiOiIyLjc1IiwicXNhIjoiMi4xMCIsInFzcCI6IjEuOTEifQ%3D%3D&sprefix=Bird%2Caps%2C476&sr=8-1-spons&th=1

I learned how to use my Instant Pot with his videos

What a neat way to lounge on the beach, at the lake, at the campground or even the back yard…. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08CRJ57DY/ref=cm_gf_acco_iaac_d_p0_e0_qd0_DSKjDuBtVTPYVe2MVqO4?th=1

I’ve made sugar baby body scrub, homemade hot chocolate mix and even homemade mug cake mix as gifts before. The hardest part was finding jars I liked to put the body scrub in and larger jars that I liked for the hot chocolate. I might be doing something similar this year since I will be starting a new job in a few weeks and won’t know how they do holidays there if at all.

For anyone who likes to save momentos from trips/activities, special occasions. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07SC2GKPV/ref=cm_gf_accp_iaaa_d_p0_e0_qd2_Cu2fH4kSmYBasOdh8RW9

Yay!

I have a similar one. Thankfully I’ve not had to use it on my car though!

I’ve decided that I just can’t deal with Prime Day/Early Prime Day sales anymore unless I am wanting an Amazon device. It’s just not worth the hassle and headache of searching and searching and searching just to save a buck or 2. It’s just too much.

LMBO!! You’re missing out on some good blankies!

Me too!

I started a Christmas List today! Added 2 possibilities under my sister’s name. That’s progress because she is usually the hardest to buy for of all the hard people to buy for on my list.

Got my prize last week and they are so very useful. Thanks Brad!

Target, Walmart and Best Buy.

For the cook who has small kitchen cabinets and too many spices……magnetic spice rack. https://www.amazon.com/YAMAZAKI-home-Plate-Magnetic-Spice/dp/B00TF2D5U6/ref=sr_1_5?crid=3IQUO7I96K7TL&keywords=yamazaki+magnetic+spice+rack&qid=1665322234&qu=eyJxc2MiOiIyLjM3IiwicXNhIjoiMS40NiIsInFzcCI6IjEuMjEifQ%3D%3D&sprefix=Yamasaki+magnetic+spice+%2Caps%2C235&sr=8-5
