Default Holiday Shopping?

How was your shopping this year? I had a hit list of stuff so i was in and out in under 3 hours (score!) besides stuff i got via magazines.

didn't see any Salvation Army people (i feel bad), but i'm happy i wasn't wading through a mob of annoying frustrated shoppers.:bloogrin

I dunno, I picked up things slowly over a few months, a couple items being ordered online and one I made myself. I gave out several dollars to the Salvation Army, just in general and not only when I was shopping for gifts.

I had to wait until quite late in the month to shop, because our school district waited so late to let out for the holidays, and I have to have some time to travel to the out-of-state town where I do my Christmas shopping. It sounds like trouble, but the traffic there is nowhere near as bad as the local shopping centers(all of which are still at least a half-hour's drive). I had no trouble finding the things I was looking for though, except for one item for me-that Hot Topic Foster's T-shirt with the whole cast on it.

I kinda got lazy with my shopping. I started off okay, when I got one item in late November, and one early December. As for the rest, it was either gift certificates or just cash monies.

Our family does not give much (unless there are little kids), we just enjoy being with echother. The small gifts we do give, are last minute, and usually purchased at Target.

Ugh, I hate X-mas shopping. I never know what to get anyone. Plus I usually go last minute shopping.
