A Gardeners Forum Forums General Discussion The Banter Hall Home for the Holidays Early Christmas Shopping Pt. 3

I never thought of that Jess....you may be on to something...shipping deadline is the 2nd of Dec(off the top of my head I think it is).

We could probaby really get something nice eh? Hmmmmm.

The one thing I really wanted the most last year was the little convertible broom vacs that walmart had....between me and mom I think we bought 4 of them, but they were super cheap---lik $7.99 or something.

Everything else I wanted Marks mom got me for Christmas. On T-day she'll ask us what we want out of the papers.

i bought my first christmas presents yesterday

Go JIFFY!!! Buy those presents.

We don't have Black Friday here, when I read this I thought BF meant boyfriend I was thinking, ....hmmm, I thought Jessica was married? Did I miss that much in the past two weeks

I had to re-read the whole thing to make sense of it all.

Sorry about that Tam! I'm actually not married though. I live with my BF but we are not married. Maybe someday!

Oh if the shipping deadline is Dec. 2nd then I definitely can buy some of the gifts on Black Friday. Yayyyy!!! That is exciting! I might even get some at the sample sale! When will we get our names?? I will be going to that on the 17th.

Names go out by the 17th.

Man, you guys need Black Friday in Canada too Tamara.....it's fantastic!

Wonderful!! Thanks Loz!!

Got 3 UPS packages the past 2 days, one weighed 37 pounds or something like that. Got it all wrapped up, Cabelas had an awesome sale and I got Mark a Cabelas Hat, a Carhartt Hat, 2 deer Cabela t shirts for $22 with shipping. Can't beat that. Have his cordless planer coming UPS today. The UPS man probably thinks I'm nuts cause he's always here.

How's everyones shopping going?

loz: Junie here.-- A cordless planner yes!!! e-mail me at junie girl & tell all about it. I might likke to buy one

That's o.k. I'm not married either.

I got sis-in-law to pick up some gift boxes for me at the dollar store. I figured I may as well get some things done by other people if I can't do it myself. I do have my list made with a budget amount by each name so I am good to go.

My mother called today to invite me to go Christmas shopping with her next week....imagine that? Maybe she's up to something

Maybe she wants to buy you some really nice gifts Tam!

Nope, she probably wants to show me what she wants for Christmas.

I suppose that could be it. I didn't think about that.

I don't like for people to tell me things they want, I'm one of those people that makes lists of things I can buy for them thru the year and then I wing it.

Tristen is really the only one who tells me what he wants. Like I said before I think that I might have to ask James for some ideas this year though. But you never know....I might see something while I am out and I won't have to ask him. Guess I will find out soon!

Well I lie...I did ask Mark this year....he's usually easy for me but he has just about everything now so I broke down and asked. Athena I don't need to ask, she just tells me she wants everything.

Men are hard to shop for.

Men definitely are hard to shop for. In the past I have been able to get hunting stuff for James for his bday and Christmas but now he has most everything. Everything that he needs anyways.

i usually ask for "guide list" but if i see something i think will go for the person (i got ellie a cookie jar last week) then i just get them. they get more that way. and i spend less.

Exactly Jiffy.....I can budget buy if they don't tell me specifics.

loz, go start a christmas shopping topic, we are full here.
