DVDs and PJs

Other options Legos, snack type gifts, throw blanket, onsie type PJ with hoodie (character type) which are very popular with the teens in our area. Bath/Deodorant sets like Axe. Hoodies are popular with kids/teen. Are there any characters he likes? DVDS of favorite movies and/or tv series. Trying to think back to when my son was 12 LOL. Something we have been doing for our kids the past few years is each year we buy a few Christmas Movies (home alone collection, Santa Claus collection, Rudolph, etc) to help them create their own collection of favorites so when the time comes for them to moved out on their own they will have a great collection.

Will be spending about the same. We also have Christmas Club that we put money into each month plus we already bought several gifts.

What about remoted control cars or monster trucks, bike, small drones?

Waiting for that 1st ad to drop

My DD wants a kindle reader and DH wants beats earbuds. Always on the lookout for deals on transformers LOL

I was really surprised and excited to get this in the mail over the weekend. My kids are too big for the "toy" book and my grandson is still a bit to young but hopefully next year he will be old enough to get excited to go through a toy book and mark off what he wants.

Our Walmart started placing out Christmas Decorations in the Lawn and Garden Area this past weekend.

We host every year as we have the bigger house, not sure how many people will be coming yet this year.

Oh I miss Kmart too!!!! and Yeah it's going to suck this year without the Christmas Tree Shop!

Love this time of the year! Can't wait to shut off the AC and open the windows.

Since a couple of the store I normally shop on BF have closed we are rethinking out shopping plans this year. We are about 30% done shopping now and I keeping my eyes opened for deals. I don't think we will be out shopping as long as we did last year. The goal is to be completely done shopping by Dec 1st except for food related items.

Woo-hoo! I am ready for some ads

Same, hate the heat and humidity. I prefer Fall and actually like winter and snow. I can add layers and still be comfortable.

Picked up a few gifts in July. Was not impressed with Amazon's Prime deals this year.

Happy July ... month full of CIJ movies on Hallmark, CIJ specials on QVC and prime days!

CIJ right around the corner now....

So true!!!

Another downfall to spring and summer yard work and those never ending weeds

Another month closer !!!!

Another Month Closer!

Turkey!!!! I wanted to smoke a turkey tomorrow but weather not going to cooperate.

I know Feb is a short month but I feel like I blinked and it was over.

I am in south NJ and we had a coating of snow at best so far. It's very depressing ....

Here for January. Hope everyone had a great holiday season.
