Still busy getting those last minute gifts

December 10, 2011 by Tricia

Brrrr it’s getting cold here in Toronto. I’m so glad I’m inside my nice warm house tonight!

I’m still busy trying to finish my Christmas shopping. I can’t go out shopping tomorrow but I think I’ll be hitting the stores on Monday once again. Until then … maybe a little more online browsing and shopping – provided I find some good gift ideas of course.

How have you been doing with your Christmas and holiday shopping. I’ll bet that most of you are finished already aren’t you? Well I’m not and I don’t think I’ll ever be an early to finish holiday shopping. I guess that’s just not my style.

One thing about shopping late into the season is that the stores start lowering prices the closer we get to Christmas. I’ve found some great deals by waiting until a few days before the 25th! Speaking of deals … my brother in law called earlier this evening and he told me that he’s getting his kids and all of the nephews and nieces certified gold coins as a gift. That won’t be their only gift I’m sure, but he wants to start them out with a collection and since the coins are made of gold they’ll always have value. I think it’s a good idea, hopefully the kids will like their gifts.

Well .. happy shopping if that’s what you’re up to this weekend! Otherwise stay warm and have fun.

    Happy shopping to you also as I have already planned and ordered it in advance so that I get what I want in time.

    Interesting. Here in Sweden prices go up until the 24th (yes, we celebrate Christmas one day early) and then sale starts between the 25th and New Year’s. So that’s when you buy a new vacuum cleaner if you didn’t get one for Christmas.

    This is what I’m planning to do tomorrow. I can’t afford another rushed Christmas shopping again just like last year.

    I have yet to even start my Christmas shopping! I think for some reason I prefer running through the mall as quickly as possible grabbing the gifts I already planned in my head lol. I do this every year, but somehow it all seems to work out!

    Its indeed that time of the year again! I love shopping especially during the holidays. I just kind of feel good about the rush, seeing a lot of people at the mall with that happy looks on their faces. I am so excited. =)
