Pick your poison

Black Friday shopping or cyber Monday?

Anything you are specifically looking for this year?

Specific stores or websites you "have" to hit?

Any oddball ideas for gifts to share?

I am very specifically looking for a convertible car seat. I heard that there are sometimes good deals.

Same. Amazon has already got some good deals going on

We're looking for that, cloth diapers, dvds, and a microwave (ours just broke). Not very exciting but I'm syalking the CD sites like a madwoman

I am usually wrapping up my gift shopping around this time each year.

 

This year, so far I have bought exactly 1 thing for DH and some things for LO.  Nothing else.

 

I can't even deal with any of it.

We found DS1s convertible car seat on Albeebaby.com right after chrismas if you sign up for their newsletter you get a coupon too!

I'm going to go ahead and toot my own horn for being done with holiday shopping. It's all wrapped, too. We always buy online through Amazon because it's a one-stop shop. But we normally don't do that until well into December. I'm proud of us this year. For the past 3 years we've signed up for Amazon prime trial with a different email address and cancelled after all of our purchases get delivered

Amazon offered me another prime trial last month (I think this is like the third time) so I was going to wait until it would run me through Christmas incase I needed anything last minute

LO is almost completely done, I just want to get another outfit or two for her. DH is almost done I mostly need some cheesy stocking stuffers for her.

I have something picked out for my nephew I just need to get that and something else small for him and my niece.

As for the parents... I know I'm making salt dough ornaments but that's where that ends. And I saw 29 shopping days left. FML.

 

I have to work Friday so no shopping for me. I did Walmart one year on Thanksgiving evening for one thing and that's the only time I've ever gone.

More likely to do Cyber Monday, the introvert in me gets exhausted being with the masses on Black Friday.

We celebrate Hanukkah and are keeping it as simple as possible - not so easy since the grandparents are intent on buying a lot of stuff despite our requests. Doing mostly homemade or made in America gifts.

Potential oddball gift:
I am tempted to do adopt an animal type gift for my niece/nephew (such as heifer) as they have tons of toys and are very fortunate. Not sure it would go over so well with DH and his family.

None yet, I plan on looking at babies-r-us and target. Not a specific brand yet.

Albeebaby.com has a few good deals right now

@augustusgoose‌ Target was having a 25% off Chicco sale last week. I'm not sure if it's still going on, but I got two Nextfits for about $440 with tax and shipping.

ETA: I don't like crowds and the malls around here are a joke, so I'm more of a Cyber Monday kind of girl.
