I just finished buying all my gifts today... I need to stop at the store tomorrow and buy gift wrap / cards, but there's a halmark store right across the street from my office that I can go to on my lunch break tomorrow :)

every year I say that I want to get my shopping totally finished months in advance, but it never happens... christmas always seems to sneak up on me like a deadly ninja filled with consumerist rage.

I'm finished with everything except the liquor store & thats the easiest part. :D

I had just about everything done by 12/1 this year & 95% of my shopping was done online.

Need to get gifts for my brother, his wife, and my sister. Also need to get stocking stuffers for the kiddies.

Also waiting on two things to arrive in the mail.

Mail seems to be running REALLY slow this year.

I have one gift left to buy and then I'm done. I even have everything wrapped....first time ever I won't be up late wrapping on Christmas Eve.

Just give cash. Make some origami & pretend to be thoughtful. If you don't like them, then don't bother with gifts.

I get everything online. I actually don't have to buy much. My wife does all the shopping, for friends, family, etc. even for herself and then I usually buy her a few things on my own. I have it VERY easy.

Those are additional gifts. I'm just adding to other things I've gotten.

I'm not really. I have a couple of things for my wife but wanted something else. I got interrupted by her having a surgery Monday and being laid up. It is hard to sneak away for shopping when you are the nursemaid:)
