Ahhhhhh!!!


I cannot believe that its already this time of the year! I've done NO shopping yet... !


I am going to the Mall of America the day after Thanksgiving to hopefully get most of it done, but my gosh- last year at this time I at least had a good start on things!

We were in WalMart on Friday, and they already had Christmas music going! Now, I'm a huge fan, but already? My gosh... lets just give me a small heart attack!


I suppose that with the flood & moving I have a good excuse to be behind on my shopping, right?


Anyone else freaking out yet? And BOOO to all of you who are finished already

I was in your situation this time last year Kenz with just moving house, so i was buying for that and buying for christmas every weekend to the run up until christmas. I was worn out with all the bags i had to carry


I just have to get Gils, and his son and daughter something, but with those two i'm just getting them a gift set from the Body Shop each

I did not realize it was so close!

I have no shopping done yet, I haven't even thought about it until now... Now I have to budget a little better sooner


Bagh to those who have already finished

I'd probably be doing the same if I were close to being done!
Maybe I should write a list or something... or maybe that would make me feel even worse!

I suppose I am about halfway done. I still have to buy for my son and my bf though and those two are the hardest to buy for and usually the most expensive!

I was in Wal-Mart on Friday too and heard the Christmas music. The one here also has a big screen tv playing a dvd of a fireplace.


I started my Christmas shopping a couple of weeks ago. I have only bought 4 presents though. I've got about 30 more to buy.

I got a good chunk of shopping done this weekend. There are a few people that I know what I'm getting them, I just need to get it. The niece and nephews are the hardest. I don't know if it's having all this time off, but I'm extra ready to get into Christmas this year.

I am freaking out! Although, I do usually last minute shop because if I start to early I buy too many things all the way up to Christmas

I haven't even thought about it.
No idea what to get, haven't set a budget yet... I have no idea when I'll go shopping or where....I like to keep things interesting by procrastination!

I probably should have admitted in my post earlier....I've already bought and listend to a new Christmas CD. But it "Christmas with the Rat Pack and Friends!" So it's awesome music. I had to scoop it up when I saw it and I couldn't wait to listen to it! I love Christmas music!

I love Black Friday!

Thats the day I'm going to the Mall of America - that place has EVERYTHING & I'm usually able to get everything done that day!
