DH, our 4 children, and my mom is who I plan for. I never know year to year if I will be exchanging gifts with my nieces/nephews although I usually try and pick up at least 1 small item for each of them.

 

DH is the hardest and easiest; hardest because he always says he does not want anything and easiest because he always puts himself last so I usually have a list of things to pick from that he wants (but won't ask for) and/or could use.

Husband - not a clue

Daughter (9) - ipad mini, lego friends

Son (7) - ipad mini, legos (purchased on a fantastic walmart clearance last weekend)

Joint kid gifts - possibly replace desktop with laptop, new skylanders game

My parents - sodastream, kindle paperwhite (possibly upgrading my paperwhite to the new one and gifting mine to my mom ( only used mine a few months and have the box, etc. - my family is perfectly fine with gifting this way)

My grandparents - anything they want, may be my grandfather's last. 

My aunt - Keurig of some sort

His parents - not a clue

His grandparents - not a clue

His Aunt and Uncle - not a clue

 

Most of my black Friday shopping has been for household stuff, things for myself and hubby and toys but my kids are outgrowing the toys (except legos) and are more into electronics/console games. This will be the first year I spend looking at laptops and electronics heavily and possibly camping out. I miss the toys phase all of the sudden.

We  buy for: 

our twin boys age 15

my daughter that will be 7

my niece that is 6

and my nephew that is 13

 

My husband and I may buy each other a small gift (15.00 or under) depending on if we have the xtra money or not.

 

We usually spend 5.00 each on my parents, husband's parents, my sister and her husband, and my husband's brother and his wife.  His wife has 3 kids but they are all 16 and older and we are not close so we don't usually get them anything.  The last 2 years they didn't get my kids anything at all but spent like 1000.00 on each of their kids so it is not like they couldn't afford to get them a little something, at least my daughter since she is not really old enough to understand.  My boys really don't care..lol.

This is our bare bones list, we've totally cut back on the amount of people we buy for.  Other close friends get goodie plates/christmasy dish towels etc

DH - was gonna get him a kindle fire which I already bought but ended up giving it to him 2 weeks ago.

DS - not sure..I have a ps4 pre ordered but he doesn't want to wait until Christmas so he is giving me the money back for it. Maybe I'll get him the xbox one.

DD - not sure but she's pretty easy to buy for. So far I do have her some Uggs and house shoes put away though. Thinking maybe a kindle fire for her too.

Dad - not sure but probably the usual....cologne, shirt and a food gift set of some sort.

Mom - not sure

Brother #1 - not sure..he's hard to buy for

Sis in law #1 -  not sure

Brother #2 - not sure but easy to buy for

Sis in law #2 - not sure

Teachers - not sure yet

A few friends of dd's  - not sure yet but probably something from Justice.

I have a few little things that I bought here and there throughout the year put away for some too.

DH - no clue whatsoever

 

DS3 - no clue...probably toys.

DS2 - ditto

 

DM - some kind of bag (Coach or DB) for birthday and I'm not sure what for Christmas. She won't tell me what she wants until a couple of weeks beforehand.

DMIL - probably a Waterford ornament and some bath stuff. I get her the same thing every year. I might get her some of her perfume to switch it up LOL

DFIL - no clue. The hardest person for me to buy for by far. I'd like to find some obscure book he would like to read, maybe.

 

Assistant and her 2 daughters (ages 6 and 17) - no clue

 

I bought 2 of the new Elmo hug toys this summer with the idea that they would be part of my boys' Christmas, but I already gave them to them. Oops :)

After reviewing this list, it's clear that I need to get my game plan on!

My list is short:

 

DH

DD-22

DS1-16

DS2-16

MIL

 

The kids all want expensive stuff so it will be pretty empty under the tree this year.

 

DHs family does a drawing but I don't put much effort into it since i'd rather not even participate. I'll just grab something out of the gift closet.

My 3 Kids

DH

My mom

Myself lol (I let my husband know what I want but then when Kohl's has a 30% off closer to Christmas I start shopping for me. It kills me to know he pays full price for stuff.)

 

That's it. My grandparents have passed away, I no longer talk to my aunt, uncle, & cousins. My in-laws use to do an exchange but don't anymore.

Just making my list for this year... We are REALLY cutting back this year. I am so tired of buying just to have a "pile" under the tree...  This year, we are doing the "something you  want, something you need, something to wear, something to read..." strategy for our boys.  They are really into their electronics and video games, and get so much from extended family, that we chose to buy one big gift for each and a few smaller things.

 

DH  - Got him a DVD set so far, and maybe a 15" TV to keep in his truck (he is an OTR truck driver)

Son (11) - Ipod Touch, case, Itunes g/c, a book, new sneakers, Stocking Stuffers, Disney Infinity (will be a group gift for both boys)

Son (10) - Ipod Touch, case, Itunes g/c, a book, new watch, Stocking Stuffers, Disney Infinity (will be a group gift for both boys)

Mom - Lighted Magnifying Makeup Mirror, and not sure what else yet

Mom's BF - Coffee Mug and Gift card for 7-11 (he gets his coffee there every day)

Dad - New Slippers (I get them for him every year), and some WWII DVDs

Sister (32) - Ultrasonic Jewelry Cleaner (something she requested and I KNOW she will use)

Sister (22) - Mr. Coffee Iced Coffee Machine

Nephew (2.5) - Spiderman Pillow, Spiderman Sneakers, HULK Action Figure

Niece (5 months) - Activity Saucer

Best Friend - Gift Certificate to her favorite restaurant

3 Teachers - Probably gift cards

Cousins 1,3,8

Cousins 18, 21, 22

Brother 35

Granmother

Dad/SMom - Have everything and can buy anything. I usually buy SMom jewelry.

 

Some other people will be added as time goes on.....

My list is very short.  THe boys and Jeff-- stockings

My youngest brother--probably a stocking

Everyone else-- hugs

 

We moved to a different place this year that accomodates Jeffs growing issues better so  between the out of pocket expenses and prices that grow faster than my income it will be a small (again) Christmas.  THe boys understand and they aren't little... but it doesn't help me get in the mood.
