Christmas is only a week away - have you finished your shopping?
Mine is all done, except for the lottery tickets that I buy my mother every year. I get her 100 dollars worth of tickets. I usually try to get them at an off hour so that the clerk doesn’t have to deal with me and a lot of other customers at the same time. I’ve been too lazy to go in late at night so far.
Shopping? Finished? What day is it?
uh-oh
My wife and I work off lists. There’s some cookware-related items I haven’t gotten her, but I hate buying that kind of stuff for Christmas.
Otherwise, I’m done.
I only shop for my son and the main bulk of that was done by the end of November. Now I just go out to the stores and if I see a stocking stuffer or something I think he would like I’ll just pick it up.
All done except for my wife, and we’ve agreed to wait until after Christmas and buy something for both of us during the New Year’s sales.
Yes, and so of course my 5-yo daughter announced that what she really, truly wants for Christmas is roller skates, which I have not bought.
Yup, all my shopping’s done. This year I tried to do as much as possible online or way before the “shopping season” started. I’m still headed out to the mall this week to help a friend get her shopping done, though. I’m not looking forward to the crowds, but I enjoy helping out.
As of an hour ago, it’s all done! I’ve still got quite a bit of baking to do, though. Bread and cookies, mostly.
For the first time in about three years I was able to ship gifts home for Christmas without having to spring for 2-day shipping.
I do need to go grab a DVD for the hubby from Best Buy, but that’s no big deal.
I sigh with contentment every time I realize that those packages are safely underway and due to arrive Wednesday.
amazingly enough, i’m halfway done, normally i start about now, got gifts for Dad (who is impossible to buy for), my sis and her husband, and my nephew, just need to get gifts for Mom and my neice
I’m done. 1 hour, $600, all Amazon. Gotta love it 
The only things we still need are a gift card for our oldest daughter (Best Buy) and a gift card for my in-laws (gas), both of which hubby will get while he’s working down in Baltimore this week. There is no Best Buy in Cumberland (not that I’m complaining about that; it’s just where she wants a gift card from), and the in-laws live down there, so it makes more sense to give them a card from a station near them.
Now, I have to get busy wrapping everything we bought over the weekend!
Pretty much exactly what I did.
I’m waiting for two more presents to arrive and to wrap and then I am finished!
Finished mine. Got all the lottery tickets from a vending machine an hour ago. Now I’m home free.
I still have to buy a gift for my mom, and a stocking gift for my niece. I know exactly what I am getting each of them, it’s just a matter of getting myself to the mall. The good thing is, the mall is literally a minute away, and it’s open until 11 pm.

All done! Just got the last of the stocking stuffers yesterday.
It’s really easy for us though. A few things for each of the girls and we’re set. We don’t buy gifts for adults in this family and for that I’m thankful!
It’s all done and it’s all wrapped. Envy me! 
Or hate me. Either way, I’m still done and you’re not… NEENER! NEENER! NEENER!
I’ve been done for a while, except for candy for the stockings, which I will be buying tomorrow morning. Everything is wrapped, too. Since I have two kids and sixteen niecephews to shop for, it feels reeeeeeeal good to be finished.
Nope. Still have to get my son his Guitar Hero game and a new CD player, have to get the Sister In Law her Secret Santa Gift, have to get the Brother In Law HIS Secret Santa gift (my husband and I got his sister and brother in law :rolleyes: ), have to figure out what to get for his mom and buy it, have to get Chili Contest Participant presents, and if I happen to see something Mr2U might like during all this, I’ll get it for him too although he already has some stuff…oh - and I have to buy Dog2U’s presents.
I HATE the holidays…
I think so, actually. I finished mine on Saturday and my husand finished his yesterday. I have them all wrapped and under the tree too. I’m so proud of myself!
