I love being on gottadeal. It's the only place I've come for black Friday and tbh any kind of deal for years. I love when the kohls ad drops because it signifies all of the rest coming. I'm super excited for laptop deals this year, and maybe a super soft blanket to snuggle up in while I play on it.

I do not have to buy for many people but most are hard to buy for.

Like me, if they want/need something, they go buy it. ( like we bought a TV in April)

Oh well, give my brain some work.

But they are all guaranteed a loaf of homemade bread.

What do you all do for the Hard-to-buy-for?

I've got one very dear friend that's getting harder to buy for as the years go by simply because he knows I'm the one who always comes up with something unique that he absolutely loves. Hard standard to keep living up to! 

 

That said, he gets a full batch of his favorite lemon cookies from the recipe I found several years back along with a pile of other sweet treats (cookies and fudge) that he shares with his family. Beyond that, I just keep my eyes peeled throughout the year. I'm always on the lookout for something that suits his interests that I know he could either use (a Captain Morgan bottle repurposed into a hanging lamp, for example) or just enjoy (he loves all things Ford Motor Company, so I've bought wall clocks, signage, and other knick knacks he can hang either in his house or in his garage). 

 

So far this year? I've got nothing yet beyond the baked goodies. Oof. The hunt continues. lol

I don’t have to buy for a lot of people either but those 3 I do buy for are very difficult to buy for.  None of them wants or needs anything because like you, we buy when we want/need to.  Usually their gifts just fall into place somehow.  Sometimes my mother will think of something she thinks my Dad might like so off we go.  My mom loves anything we give her although she has nowhere to put knick knack items and she is very difficult to fit for clothes and shoes, so, she’s a hard one. None of the three mind getting gift cards so that is always my last option if nothing else works out.   I usually browse our local gift-type stores for gifts often during this time of year.  Thankfully the long shifts I work give me a 4-day weekend every week so I have the time to browse.
