Title: What's Everyone Giving for Christmas?
Post by: bob on November 26, 2023, 06:58:24 PM
I'm almost done with all my Christmas shopping!

An uncle is getting 50 rubber ducks and 4 cord connectors to be used with ham radio per his request.

My brother is getting a giant Nightmare Before Christmas puzzle and a gigantic Marvel The Infinity Saga puzzle.

My dad is getting The Pats: An Illustrated History of the New England Patriots, The Ultimate Boston Red Sox Trivia Book: A Collection of Amazing Trivia Quizzes and Fun Facts for Die-Hard BoSox Fans! and Nightmare on Elm Street 8 discs/movie Collection.

I just decided I'm getting the teenagers jaw harps for Christmas.  Sometimes I have amazing ideas.

QuoteWe barely do Christmas gifts. It would cost a fortune to buy gifts for everyone in our large family.

That said, I already bought gift cards in October. Will stick them into small Christmas bags, and add a few small Christmassy items. Like every year.

I give to all the gift of figuring it out on your own while I do the same.

Doesn't cost me anything, and it's what most folks end up with in the end anyhow.

When we went to Chinatown for Thanksgiving, My mother really liked the egg puffs we got at the cart there, so I'm getting her an egg puff thingy https://www.amazon.com/MasterChef-Electric-Waffler-Griddle-Minutes/dp/B078TNBLM3/ref=asc_df_B078TNBLM3/?tag=hyprod-20&linkCode=df0&hvadid=242029716474&hvpos=&hvnetw=g&hvrand=3140268395289635594&hvpone=&hvptwo=&hvqmt=&hvdev=c&hvdvcmdl=&hvlocint=&hvlocphy=9002080&hvtargid=pla-523610825974&psc=1&mcid=0c8e856ab31936ed96a6c21a62a98c42&gclid=Cj0KCQiAgqGrBhDtARIsAM5s0_npp4olfQ6qdI5JzbX7yJq-7SzWaxThzkr9XH2t5NQJkfTfJd2f1VwaAtI0EALw_wcB (https://www.amazon.com/MasterChef-Electric-Waffler-Griddle-Minutes/dp/B078TNBLM3/ref=asc_df_B078TNBLM3/?tag=hyprod-20&linkCode=df0&hvadid=242029716474&hvpos=&hvnetw=g&hvrand=3140268395289635594&hvpone=&hvptwo=&hvqmt=&hvdev=c&hvdvcmdl=&hvlocint=&hvlocphy=9002080&hvtargid=pla-523610825974&psc=1&mcid=0c8e856ab31936ed96a6c21a62a98c42&gclid=Cj0KCQiAgqGrBhDtARIsAM5s0_npp4olfQ6qdI5JzbX7yJq-7SzWaxThzkr9XH2t5NQJkfTfJd2f1VwaAtI0EALw_wcB)

Probably a lot of gift cards.  I have several new nieces and nephews-but I guess they all like to shop at similar stores.  Other than that, most of my siblings and I are a bit too old to be doing the same kind of shopping for each other when we were younger.  So either gift cards or small gifts.

Nothing. After the bills, I'm broke.

I got my feline niece and nephews some toys.  Nothing too fancy - just some catnip string toys.  Got my youngest niece a Minnesota shaped baby rattle and a Minnesota tab toy - which is cloth with a bunch of tabs attached.  (Hopefully a certain furry dickhead doesn't try to destroy it).  And my oldest niece a couple more Minnesota books.  Got my brother a novelty diploma for a "doctorate" in Pittsburgh Steelers football.  Getting my mom the traditional photo calendar I get every year for her and will probably get her a bottle of wine from a St. Paul area winery.  With Dad I'm thinking of getting him some Minnesota whiskey and maybe another book.  That just leaves one more present for my brother and sister-in-law.
