Elmck Posted October 20, 2009 Share Posted October 20, 2009 One thread asked us what we were getting for whom (or who??) and I thought I knew what I wanted to get DD6. Now I am not so sure. I am thinking of changing at least some of my ideas. Those might change agian too once I see the ads. Does anyone elso go back and forth with ideas?

HansieDZ Posted October 21, 2009 Share Posted October 21, 2009 Absolutely I do. Depends on what commercials are on tv as to what the Toy Du Jour is. I take notice of what the kids really seem to like throughout the whole season and not just what they like now. Once the weather changes and they are indoors more,they seem to like board games,Legos,KNex and video/computer games,arts and crafts,cooking etc. Commercials really affect the kids' wish lists!

angied64084 Posted October 22, 2009 Share Posted October 22, 2009 I always have a general idea of what I want, but it can definitely be influenced heavily by the BF ads. Like I know DS wants bakugans and a bike from Santa....and that's all he has asked for. So I'm waiting to see the ads to decided what will be the mom/dad present.

hockeyfanamo Posted October 22, 2009 Share Posted October 22, 2009 Yes we are. We decided to go to Hawaii right after Christmas so DH and I will get one small gift and our stockings. Everyone else is still the same.....so far! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vsa3janes Posted October 23, 2009 Share Posted October 23, 2009 My list changes until I find the perfect gift. Once it is purchased, no more changing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
julz0420 Posted October 23, 2009 Share Posted October 23, 2009 I change quite a bit up until Christmas morning (when you are out of days to change LOL) At this time the only things set in stone are her "big" gifts (PS2 and laptop, both of which we already have here), an iCarly MP3 player, some DS games, wowee lion cub, and some zhu zhu pets. All of which are also here already hiding waiting to be wrapped. I do know I'm getting her an easy bake oven. After that I have no idea. LOL Amazon usually helps me change my mind often once their good deals start. hehe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aleighc1 Posted October 27, 2009 Share Posted October 27, 2009 Oh yes, I change my list often! I have a small notebook that I keep in my purse and have all my lists written in. I write everything in pencil because I know it's very possible that every item on the list will be changed by the time Christmas arrives. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kim3498 Posted October 27, 2009 Share Posted October 27, 2009 Absolutely. I am constantly making new lists for everyone I buy for. Especially DS. He sees so many things he wants on his laptop (he's such an internet junkie) and on tv. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndreaInNC Posted October 28, 2009 Share Posted October 28, 2009 With DD15 and DD18 I give them a deadline for their list. Normally after Thanksgiving I don't let them change anything! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
angelashly Posted October 28, 2009 Share Posted October 28, 2009 With DD15 and DD18 I give them a deadline for their list.
