abentley Posted October 29, 2007 Share Posted October 29, 2007 Ok, I do tend to start early, but I finished ordering this afternoon!! I have my DH's partner to buy for, and that is it!! I admit, I lost the shopping rush, after the whole Wal-mart ad thing. But to be finished this early...feels a little "bah humbug!!" Oh, I hope I find the fun again within the next 25 days!!

elena_398 Posted October 29, 2007 Share Posted October 29, 2007 Im 95% done with my kids 100% done with my parents 100% done with my husband 100% done with my neices and nephew. With all the Target clearances, sales throughout the year, etc.... I am just about done. My daughter wants an SP (too young for anything else), but may just buy it now as she wants a pink one and I know they are hard to find close to christmas. Seems weird here too.

copados1993 Posted October 29, 2007 Share Posted October 29, 2007 Feel free to come do my shopping for me...PLEASE!!!!! I finally got both of my kids to write down their wish lists. They understand it's just a "wish List", but it gives me a pretty good guide. DS is now at the age that almost everything on his list is expensive...OUCH!

Turtle Mommy Posted October 29, 2007 Share Posted October 29, 2007 My boys are 95% done. I have to pick up gift cards for my nieces and nephews and get them in the mail the first part of December.

lisamag Posted October 29, 2007 Share Posted October 29, 2007 There is no such thing as "done shopping" lollol i totally agree. i have a friend that only buys her dd12 one or two things. i'm up to around 16 or 17 total. and she keeps asking me if i'm done shopping for them. i know i went way over board last yr with 30 for each of my kids, but i'll be done when i feel that i'm done and thats starting to bother me that she does that. but i'm the only one that buys for my kids besides my brother and SIL. my dad sends money, mom don't celebrate so thats it i don't bother with any other family and most of my friends have it tight so we don't exchange. i'm trying to cut back this yr but i just can't pass up a good deal lol. and i love watching them christmas morning when they see everything. thats my gift.

elena_398 Posted October 29, 2007 Share Posted October 29, 2007 Even though Im 95% done with my kids, I'll definately go out on BF. No one could stop me then! My problem is I tend to over buy when Im done this soon. LOL. I just have to get 2 gaming chairs for my kids and a pink SP for my daughter then thats it. (of course if one heck of a deal pops up then I'll have to get that!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

leefamily23 Posted October 30, 2007 Share Posted October 30, 2007 I usually am about 1/4 of the way done here. BUT...I haven't even started yet this year. We are moving on 11/8 and I've just been too busy. The house we're moving into-- we gutted ceilings, walls, floors, cupboards, counters, sinks, pretty much EVERYTHING. Well we had 8 weeks to remodel and move- and we're in the final countdown now. So, there's been no time for shopping unless it's at Home Depot .

lilquiet Posted October 30, 2007 Share Posted October 30, 2007 Done with all the kids. (5 girls and 5 boys total) Honeslty I have enough toys that I'm giving some to my sisters neighbors also. (2 little girls) I'm donating a few. And still will have at least 3 boxes full. Now my mom, sis and BIL are another issue. I would help if there birthdays weren't just before and just after Christmas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

elena_398 Posted October 30, 2007 Share Posted October 30, 2007 The only toys I have to get is for whatever family I get from my church ( I adopt a family at christmas and provide all gifts and the meal). Last year I had a single mom w/ a few children. I'll find out later on this month. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
