bribri25 Posted October 25, 2016 Posted October 25, 2016 We get Xmas Jammies as a family too.... even got matching ones for the dogs 5 years ago. They do make for some fun pictures. 1
Kanyon71 Posted October 25, 2016 Posted October 25, 2016 Thanks for sharing magickallight and Kanyon71, I had never thought of doing special Christmas Eve presents of pjs before. I love the idea! I bet it makes for some great photos You're welcome, it's become a tradition for us and our daughter loves it. She gets excited to get her PJ's on make some hot cocoa and go see the lights. She knows that means Santa is coming. 1
Mimito1 Posted October 25, 2016 Posted October 25, 2016 We also do Jammie's on Christmas Eve. It's a tradition my mom started with us and my brother and I have continued with our kids. I have special paper the Jammie's get wrapped in and even though everyone knows what it is, they still are excited to unwrap them and put them on. 1
tracy0504 Posted October 25, 2016 Posted October 25, 2016 (edited) My kids know that the one gift they get to open on Christmas eve is their PJs...it has gotten to the point where we get home from our Christmas eve family gathering and my son will come and ask me for them so he can go to bed...

flyjar Posted October 26, 2016 Posted October 26, 2016 We started earlier this year, trying to space out our money a little better this year so we don't have that large credit card bill Nov, Dec & Jan.
gina01 Posted October 26, 2016 Posted October 26, 2016 We do jammies every year, too. Makes for great pictures on Christmas morning.
jesusluvu Posted October 26, 2016 Posted October 26, 2016 Okay,, QVC has officially kicked me into buy now mode. I have checked off a couple of things so far. 3
Kanyon71 Posted October 26, 2016 Posted October 26, 2016 We are looking for some scooters for our daughter/nieces/nephews now. Picked up one of those Hatchimals last weekend for our daughter at Toy's R Us.

1angelnhvn Posted October 27, 2016 Posted October 27, 2016 A few things here and there! Bought a few items for my daughter with survey money I earned over the past few months! But it's getting so much harder to buy for the kiddo's as they get older.! (and more expensive!)
zim05 Posted October 27, 2016 Posted October 27, 2016 I'm already done with a few people and halfway done with a couple more. I still have about 8 people I haven't started with yet but not all of them are big or expensive gifts.
HanShotFirst Posted October 27, 2016 Posted October 27, 2016 Oh gosh, I'm so far behind. I haven't bought a thing and don't even know what I want to get for everyone, except for myself.
jerica388 Posted October 29, 2016 Posted October 29, 2016 I have used Kohl's discounts and Kohl's cash to buy a few clothing items and a bottle of perfume. When the Kroger in our town was closing and the new Kroger Marketplace was getting ready to open they had all their cosmetics, kitechenware, and a few other categories at 50% off (stuff they weren't moving to the new store I guess). I got a lot of good buys then for stocking stuffers and small "add on" gifts. I haven't made any big purchases yet.
HanShotFirst Posted October 29, 2016 Posted October 29, 2016 Okay,, QVC has officially kicked me into buy now mode. I have checked off a couple of things so far.I love QVC. Bought my first "me" gift from them Thursday. Hoping they give me some ideas for gifts. 2
burberryplaid Posted October 30, 2016 Posted October 30, 2016 (edited) Bought my first gift a couple of weeks ago when Target had their Toy coupon. Bought my goddaughter a Torch dragon since it's supposed to be a hot toy this year. Paid about $52 with the coupon and got free shipping. Waiting for Veteran's Day to buy more based on sales.

mom2thegirls Posted November 2, 2016 Posted November 2, 2016 Ordered two gift cards through my bank using my "rewards points". My oldest daughter and her fiancé are going to NYC next year. She wants to shop at the Macy's there. And, I'm still waiting on the husband to give me his DVD list for TV shows.
gina01 Posted November 2, 2016 Posted November 2, 2016 I bought video games from Target yesterday, but that's it so far.
julz0420 Posted November 2, 2016 Posted November 2, 2016 We also do jammies on christmas eve. The kids already know thats what they are getting for that 1 persent to open. I grew up getting new pair of pjs on Christmas Eve and passed it on. We need to get dds laptop, gift cards for niece/nephew and their SOs, inlaws presents and stocking stuffers. I'll still probably buy the kids more stuff but we could be done (minus the laptop) today and they both have like 30 presents to open. Even already got their PJs, just waiting on my sons to be delivered. 1
catholicbride11 Posted November 2, 2016 Posted November 2, 2016 I bought some Nerf guns for my son and some bath toys for my nephews but that's it so far. I get a lot leading up to lack Friday little by little. 1
Doresia Posted November 3, 2016 Posted November 3, 2016 I've bought a few things, but still a lot to do. My son just got engaged to a woman with three kids so I have extras to buy for this year. Not enough time!!!
Khobbs1 Posted November 3, 2016 Posted November 3, 2016 I've gotten a few things, but am waiting for bf sales on most things. So far, I'm not too impressed with the early bf sales, hope it gets better.
