Christmas/Holiday shopping

[1971demon]

Well we got less than 24 hours of Christmas shopping left...In our household I do the majority of Christmas shopping...mother...sisters..brotherin-laws...grandkids..family...friends...been @ it for 3 wks...it's a chore/pita...but I enjoy it...I'm not an internet shopper...so I fight the crowds..the blue haired old ladies for parking spots.(I leave my plow on nobody fucks with a plow)..the ignorant shoppers..those with CC's that don't work..(I use cash)...I always look for unique gifts so I musta been to 50 or so boutique stores the past 3wks...my wife does all the wrapping...(I don't do dishes or laundry..so I'm not wrapin presents)....my buddies are easy..(liquor..cigars..and gun stuff)...if ya don't like any of those..ya get nothin...all that's left is my wife...the woman has @ least 3 of everything..(and she has me)...she doesn't want cash or gift cards..she says you put so much thought into everybody's gifts but mine...I got about 5hrs tomorrow to figure it out..the family festivities start Christmas Eve @ 6 pm...so who shops...who don't....who likes it..who don't

I enjoy giving gifts to everyone. I like to give out mass "safety" gifts to family (one year it was pepper spray, another it was fire blankets, etc.) as well as individual personalized items for each person.
Wife is fun because she has an entire room of her own that is packed with books, vintage dolls and Micky Mouse along with drums, guitar, etc.
So, this year I found three different Mickey Mouse items that she does not have and I'm pretty sure she will be thrilled. I'm easy, it's ALWAYS gun stuff!! I already got one gift because I had to stop and pick it up at the store for her, a Big Pelican double rifle case.
I honestly miss the historic Black Friday shopping, always found it fun and interesting. Rarely actually bought much but I enjoyed the experience. Hasn't been fun since they started opening late on Thanksgiving, so we stopped going out at 4am on BF. Now I just shop when I have time and do it at about a 50/50 rate between online and in person. I do immediate family, and wife does the extended family's gifts.
