AudreyNicole Posted November 2, 2009 Share Posted November 2, 2009 Just curious... How far along is everyone with their shopping? I get strange looks from people when they hear that I have made a pretty good dent in my shopping list... I do plan to be ALL done by Black Friday. That's my goal anyway. I have 3-4 more gifts to buy for my extended family, and then I can really consentrate on DH and my boys. I have gotten some shopping done for them as well, but I am far from finished. I know what I am buying, I just have to get the money together to do it. :) How about you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bfaddict1977 Posted November 2, 2009 Share Posted November 2, 2009 98% done. I am done for my kids but always go back and overbuy crap they don't need/want. I have to get my friend a gc and that's it otherwise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tntsmomie Posted November 2, 2009 Share Posted November 2, 2009 We're almost done. Both kids are done, but only a few relatives are. So maybe about 60% done?? Teacher gifts are taken care of, too. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jerica388 Posted November 2, 2009 Share Posted November 2, 2009 I hit the Meijer 2 week toy sale yesterday and just about finished up on my kids and my nieces and nephews. I already got my mom and dad and grandma. Still have to get for MIL, FIL, and hubby. I should be grabbing the last few pieces on BF. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elena_398 Posted November 2, 2009 Share Posted November 2, 2009 I have my children (DS 15 and DD 9) just about done. My twin nieces are done (age 6)- thanks to Target's toy clearance. My nephew still hasn't told me what he wants (age 10). He isn't into much of anything so I will wait till I hear from him. Other wise he is getting money. Done with my parents. Still have to buy for my MIL. I'm thinking glade basket and a gift card. Teachers- done (each are getting a glade variety lol) Husband- DONE. Dogs DONE.

stacyk9 Posted November 2, 2009 Share Posted November 2, 2009 I am 85% done. For those I haven't bought for yet, I know what I'm getting them, just haven't gotten it yet. I went out over lunch today and bought everyone's stocking stuffers. I'm holding onto all of my receipts, though, just in case something goes on sale!!

amez74 Posted November 2, 2009 Share Posted November 2, 2009 Not nearly far enough I've bought 12 gift cards for my husbands employees, and his parents. I've got four children to buy for. So far I have a couple of wii games, a my generations doll for my youngest dd, a pet shop center for oldest dd, and a movie for my youngest ds. This is very unusual for me, still plenty of time though Amy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
guilliam Posted November 3, 2009 Share Posted November 3, 2009 I'll be leaving this thread now to return at a future date when all this talk of people being done and almost done doesn't depress me so much since I've barely even started;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

racerfan Posted November 3, 2009 Share Posted November 3, 2009 I am behind also this year. I am usually done by now. DH has been out of work since July so things are going to be very light this year. If one of the previous posters could give me a couple branches from their money tree or a shoot of it for me to grow my own DD's 2 teachers done DD's 2 religion teachers done DD's bus driver done DD have a few things need to get her main gift if I can figure out what that is????? DS got a few things know what else to get but they are on pre-order video games & have to order his tennis rackets. DS Birthday on 12/21 to buy for. 2 DNs will get gift cards or money. My Sis & BIL not exchanging this year DH got one gift but not worried if I dont get anything else. FIL have no idea DH's Grandmother have no idea Dogs nothing yet cat nothing yet birds nothing yet After putting all this down, I am actually surprised how much I have done. At least I have some ideas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

raven20_79 Posted November 3, 2009 Share Posted November 3, 2009 I am probably about 75% done. Some people are just impossible to shop for. Have to sit down and think about it. Also need to decide if I am going to continue to buy for the people who refuse to by for anyone else, but will get pissy if they don't get anything. I don't want to, but I don't want to waste money one someone who will not appreciate whatever I get them either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
