I start shopping by early October & pretty much have it wrapped up by Thanksgiving! I dread shopping in crowded malls & going out in bad winter weather.<br /><br />Good luck w/ the rest of your shopping and happy holidays!<br /><br />BJBreaunnahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02628078186939428881noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4323617352504981787.post-48040689801019818772010-11-30T16:58:16.269-05:002010-11-30T16:58:16.269-05:00Linda, I'm not sure I'm that patient!

I'd be gluing that Lego masterpiece together. :)<br /><br />Heather, I'm not sure I can bear (mentally) to buy college stuff already. I need to work my way up to that--I figure I have six months or so before I go into panic mode!Heather Webberhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13620036387718208282noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4323617352504981787.post-79153222691751986462010-11-30T16:01:49.040-05:002010-11-30T16:01:49.040-05:00Don't be afraid to start buying stuff for coll...Don't be afraid to start buying stuff for college dorm rooms/apts. There are a ton of little things they'll wish they had come move-in. One of the best and most useful gifts my parents bought me and each of my sisters Christmas during my freshman year was a tool kit. You know, the kind that comes in a handy, durable carrying case and contains all the essentials. Still comes in handy after all these years! <br /><br />Oh, and you can always buy legos, matchbox cars, and other games to donate to Toys For Tots or similar local campaign. ;-)Heatherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17700809709293636333noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4323617352504981787.post-45866666481986180942010-11-30T15:14:30.765-05:002010-11-30T15:14:30.765-05:00Heather - My son is going to be 18 in January and ...Heather - My son is going to be 18 in January and he, too, will be going on to college. He was a big Lego kid and hasn't put together any for over a year at least. I saw on the Lego website the Holiday House and Bakery - and I asked him if I bought them for him, would he put them together for me to display in place of my usual holiday houses. He was actually excited about it - and I was so melancholy thinking these would be the last sets I would buy him. Sniff, sniff. He has already put together the bakery and is going to work on the next set this weekend. What a wonderful memory I'll have!Ann H.noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4323617352504981787.post-42828893306175852602010-11-30T11:34:03.368-05:002010-11-30T11:34:03.368-05:00I agree with Linda, you'll get to buy those gi...I agree with Linda, you'll get to buy those gifts again.<br /><br />I'm 98% done.Druhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07978384022143035332noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4323617352504981787.post-53722109587017047722010-11-30T08:21:59.395-05:002010-11-30T08:21:59.395-05:00Hang in there, Heather.

And later there will be more little ones to buy Lego's and Barbies for.Linda Leszczukhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15117080878321152684noreply@blogger.com
