When I don’t have to fight crowds, stand in long lines or feel rushed.
This morning after everyone left for school. David and I went shopping for Christmas Gifts and a Birthday gift for my niece.
Granted this was just a very small get two gifts, maybe some stocking stuffers and go home.
And that is just what we did.
Our first stop was Wal-Mart to see if they had a icarly Sam’s remote. They had 2 left! $9.96—-SCORE!
Then off to Toys R Us where I picked up my niece a birthday card. I also picked up David a Dinosaur toy…..He was even with me. I had a $5.00 off coupon for him. Making him $9.97—SCORE!!!!!
Then it was on to Target. I wasn’t able to find much there but a stocking stuffer and ribbon to make my Christmas basket with.
Two gifts for under $20 bucks….I think I did pretty well. Considering I had one of my kids with me…and as a reward for being good I told him he could have a toy….his toy he got from the $1.00 bin. He picked his toy out with no fights and was pleased with 4 little Halloween character set.
Tomorrow, I head back to Toys R Us to pick up a birthday gift. Fun, Fun!

That is such a smart idea! Why I don’t “Christmas” shop earlier in the year is beyond me.
