teebee Posted December 12, 2005 Posted December 12, 2005 I still have alot of shopping to do! I don't know what to get for some and the others I just keep procrastinating! Any ideas as what to get for a teacher and aide?
abentley Posted December 12, 2005 Posted December 12, 2005 I am finished EXCEPT for the last minute touches. To me, that is the fun. If my hubby get a bonus, we always go out last minute and shop for fun. I love the last minutes things. The feelings that inspire the extras to me are the best!!!
Kandy Posted December 12, 2005 Posted December 12, 2005 I too will be trying to finish up the last minute shopping next week.
com Posted December 12, 2005 Posted December 12, 2005 I always give my kids teachers an ornament of some kind. This year they are getting gingerbread ornaments, men, women, mittens, wreaths and candy cane shapes. They were 12 for $6.95 and are really really cute. I ended up ordering more for our own tree.
elena_398 Posted December 12, 2005 Posted December 12, 2005 I bought my son's teachers gift yesterday (male teacher). Rite Aid had all their novelty gift sets for 25% off. Found a cute Monster Garage set. He loves Hot Chocolate so this set has 2 Monster Garage mugs, 4 packs of Hot Chocolate and a big box of Monster Garage Cookies. Only came out to $5.24 My last gift I needed to buy is DONE> So I am officially done shopping.
JanaBanana Posted December 12, 2005 Posted December 12, 2005 Oh I will be also....have a few more people to buy for plus stocking stuffers.... I may even have to go out the weekend of Christmas.
elena_398 Posted December 13, 2005 Posted December 13, 2005 Thats the problem with finishing so early. You tend to buy extras until christmas comes around! I think thats why I've bought so much this year! lol
SuperMommy Posted December 13, 2005 Posted December 13, 2005 I still have about a third of my shopping left. I was really far ahead after BF, but I ended up sick the next week. Then DD caught it and she was in the hospital for a little over a week. So I haven't been able to do any shopping for over 2 weeks. Therefore I have gotten really behind.
MarkRaby Posted December 13, 2005 Posted December 13, 2005 Oh, yeah. I always buy right up to the last minute. All the major shopping is already out of the way. Like abentley, I think this is the really fun part -- just picking up a little trinket or gift card somewhere as a last minute touch. -Mark-
drmy91 Posted December 13, 2005 Posted December 13, 2005 I am going out on the 23rd during the day to get my last few things. My kids have about 2 more each, my parents and 1 more thing for hubby. Payday is that day so I am going send my hubby to Superwalmart in the middle of the night to get some stuff. I hate buying late but have to do it.
momoftwo Posted December 13, 2005 Posted December 13, 2005 I will be shopping till the day before Christmas. I never seem to get done early
misshayley Posted December 13, 2005 Posted December 13, 2005 All my Christmas shopping is done, unless I find something else that I think would be "perfect" for someone. Or there is a really good sale, I can't seem to pass up a good sale.
