christmas is near and as always in the pre-christmas period there´s a big question mark floating and turning over my head :rolleyes: what to buy as christmas-presents??? perhaps some of you know that problem too (actually i hope i´m not the only stupid, who has no idea :p)
i absolutely hate to make presents like socks, perfume or showergel *scary* -unless someone wished for it. i think it´s too obvious then, that you were in a loss with the gift...

so why don´t you tell me what you´re going to buy or already bought for christmas. inspire me ;)

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

here´s what i already bought:
- lots of toys for my two little cousins

- a shirt, 6 redwine-glasses and a bottle red wine for my aunt and her significant other

- this http://www.perfectdraft.de/perfectdraft/art/home/teaser_perfectdraft.jpg for my boyfriend (he wished for it :rolleyes:)

- a microwave for my third cousin (he wished for it too)

still don´t have the foggiest notion what to buy for my grandparents (they just had birthday on november 25 and turned 81 and 87 and it´s soo hard to find something nice for them :() and my uncle w.

for uncle a. i guess i´ll buy a little christmas tree and decorate it for him. he lives alone and doesn´t buy one for himself to save the money for more important things but i know that he misses to have a tree...

and i don´t buy something for my parents (and they don´t do for me) for christmas as they live in turkey -> a) shipping is too expensive :( and b) it´s not rarely that things disappear on their way to izmir :mad:

My mum wants some pasta bowls, and a Snow Patrol CD, my sister will get her the CD and I'm getting her the bowls. I'll just get my dad a DVD or something, he's easy, not fussy like my mum...

You won't get any with that attitude, bub. You gotta ask Santa nicely. :) (Plus I think you're supposed to give him the cookies for Christmas, lol.)

Yay! My attitude paid off. I got two (2) boxes of Pepperidge Farm COOKIES today! My mom's class just let out for winter break and they had them for parties, but went unused. Best of all, they're a variety so... *dives into Milano's first* :)

Haha. I'm poor. I just got paid, so I can finally get my Xmas shopping done.

I'll probably just buy a game for my husband, and the rest of the people I know are insanely hard to shop for. Hell, my hubby is too, but wtfever. =)

And you're getting a baby! :pYep I couldn't think of a better gift! I got a son for my 19th birthday and now I'm getting another son for x-mas!!:mrgreen:


When we were out shopping one day I heard William say that he thought the personalized picture coffee mugs were cool... So the other night when he was asleep I ordered him a big one with a picture of our son and personalized it the way that our son say's I love you..."I yov e Dada! -The Boy" I also bought him a Shirt with another pic of the two of them together that says "Me and the boy" I hope he likes it:)
