  1. I always wait on Walmart ad before I try to make a plan.  There is really not much here to plan for. 

    I read this morning that they are going to have "check out with me associates" throughout the store.  Will cut down on the checkout lines so that's a plus.  

  2. I did pretty good online and in store.  I didn't have a lot on my list and no must have big ticket items so it was fairly easy.  Got the George Foreman two meal grill from Target for my son who has just moved out on his own.  Got the usual non-gift items from walmart (rugs, socks), a picture frame and chenille blanket from Target for secret santa and a $6 dog bed from Atwoods.  Good times.  

  3. I figured my list and I don't really have many "must haves" this year.  Not that the ads are bad, just that my kids are older so there aren't as many big ticket items I need.  There are a couple of things that I really need, but they are at different stores than I usually shop at so it will be interesting figuring out where to go first.  Following my niece's lead on this one.  She has four kids six and under so we will go where she needs to go.

  4. When the kids were little, I would keep most stuff at my mom's house.  I would put it all in big trash bags and put it in the shed in the backyard on Christmas Eve and then move it all in from there.  One year my mom bought me a box of chocolate and without telling me she put it in with my stuff so I could open it on Christmas Eve with my kids.  When I went out to get the bag that night, I couldn't figure out why there was wrapping paper and a chewed up box in the yard.  The dog had gotten in the shed and got my box of chocolate out!  She didn't mess up any of the kids' stuff though.  

     

    I keep a small notebook with a list of everything I buy and check it when it is wrapped.
