gitmogecko Posted October 28, 2005 Posted October 28, 2005 About three years ago I bought my daughter a turtle braclet, I asked her how she liked it after that Christmas and she asked me where it was I fgured that she threw it out with all the excess wrapping paper.....buet she swears that she never got it. If not, then it is hidden somewhere in this house and maybe some day someone will find it!! I have forgotten about Easter stuff and found it months later!
dw172 Posted October 28, 2005 Posted October 28, 2005 Every year i seem to find something months later and i just give it to the person i bought it for! Sandie:gd_pineap
JanaBanana Posted October 28, 2005 Posted October 28, 2005 not yet but Im afraid it might happen this year since im shopping a lot earlier then I normally do.....
Jenniferharrison82 Posted October 30, 2005 Posted October 30, 2005 I always lose something, although it is usually stocking stuffers.
Jenniferharrison82 Posted October 30, 2005 Posted October 30, 2005 Funny story- We go to my husband's grandparents every Christmas Eve and for 3 years in a row I didn't get a gift. Of course we never said anything because she is a little forgetful sometimes but by the 3rd year I was beginning to wonder. The summer after that she went in the hospital and my MIL and I were cleaning her house and in a back closet under some sheets we found 3 gifts with my name on them and 1 with my MIL's name. Needless to say I had 3 new sweaters to wear that coming winter.My mil did that too me one year, lol, got two presents the following year :)
wildtama Posted October 30, 2005 Posted October 30, 2005 I do this all the time! I am glad to know that I am not the only one. I tried what zoomommy does with writing down where I put what. But I lose the paper. Or someone uses the notebook and throws the list out. I have a touch of amnesia too, it seems. Sometimes when I am finding things that I tucked away, I can't recall having bought them. Certainly little gift fairies aren't visiting me?
elena_398 Posted October 30, 2005 Posted October 30, 2005 This is why I have been wrapping and bagging each gift (in the same contractor bag) so I don't forget this year!
ebony0421 Posted October 30, 2005 Posted October 30, 2005 Every year I hide gifts and I end up hiding them from myself. My 14 year old thinks she is a detective so I have no choice but to hide the gifts. :3paperbag
