Just thought I'd tell you all I have tired Gift Card shopping butt
Whewww it was hard choosing from all those different gift cards from all the store
This is what a slacker does
waits to long to order real gifts, So I sent out an S.O.S to everyone asking " Where do you like to shop " from there responses I think I did MARVLOUUUUUSSSSSS
I am so almost done
AnyHoo I hope I can remember who gets what
I have Home Depot, Lowe's, Penney's, Torrid, Lane Bryant, Tennis warehouse, The Guitar Center, Kohl's, Barnes and Nobel, The Shoe Mall, Walmart,Target, I think that's it
If there's any leftover I'll throw them like a Bridal Bouquet into the crowd..Ahhh Man I'm pooped No I'm Pooped and Broke. I needs me a nap

Oh No you don't have any teenage grandkids do you?
You have to get them something that they will use, they are choosey, pickey, If I had to figure out where to get the Gift certificates I would still be here at Easter trying to figure it out..Teenagers want what they like and know, not the unknown, the fun part of Christmas ended when they were oh 9 or so, I haven't bought any toys for years, the kids are one is 19, two are 18, one is 15, and one is 13...Its a terrible age group

I love that store!!! They have the best prodcuts! And they're definitely reasonably priced when they put on those awesome sales several times a year! I love getting gift cards from there for Christmas- I always save them up until January when they have their big sales (i pretty much do that for every store) and then use it.

Gift cards are going to be the way I handle shopping for a 10 yr old boy, 2 12 yr old boys, a 13 yr old girl and a 14 (going on 21) yr old girl. Then there is my niece's hubby whose name I got in the family draw. He is hard to buy for and impossible to surprise. I am threatening to get him a Chia head and a singing hamster.

IMO, humble though it may be, I would consider a microwave to be a "FAMILY' gift, and not a gift for YOU.

My favourite gift, is a gift card from Best Buy. I love electronics, and I love movies. I'd think those Grandkids of yours would love Best Buy cards, because they can get music, movies, games, computer software, sirius radio, I could go on and on forever. Not to mention, they can buy stereo's, TV's, DVD players, Computer. God that place is like heaven to me. Wish I had some money to go in there and play.
