Almost done with this years present (+ general happiness)!

mommyfied · December 2012

Oh.. Finally! No last-minute shopping for gifts! 90% is ordered online and just need to be picked up - the rest is just ok to do.. I can pretty much do the rest in two stores (hope to do it before the weekend).

Not to mention I am likely to buy an Opel Astra (please comment if you have cons or pros for having one of those) , wich mean that I can drive home for Christmas.

Also J is close to done with his give-away presents

I am missing my great grandmother (she's getting a digital camera from us and my cousin), my grandmother (she's getting assorted buttons), my granduncle (getting LP-frames), young brother and his GF (getting a big box of food and other edible things) and my big brother (getting boxers and socks)... Sweet. Jacob is not getting anything from us (don't want to bring to or by in Norway and then bring back - when I can save 50 % to wait untill we get home to let him pick something he wants.)

Thankfully, we don't buy for many people, so I am just about done. We only buy for our niece's and nephew's (5 in total) and our parents. I've already bought my mom and 3 niece's. Just have my dad, DH's mom and 2 nephew's to buy for...easy enough.

P.S. I don't think you are going to get too much feedback from anyone on here about your car...it looks to be only sold in Europe (I had to google it since I never heard of it before lol) and most of us live in the US, but congrats!

That's cool! I only have to figure out my dad and stepmother. I hate buying for them. They don't want things, just "experiences."

I think Opel is called something else here, maybe it's Chevrolet? Either way, I know we don't have that model. I think my friend in Germany though had an old version though and it lasted forever! Yay on getting a new car!

That's great too about also being done with Christmas shopping, I'm not quite there!

letranger:
We are down to my parents and FIL/fi. Hardest people to buy for. And honestly unrewarding as we never can get them anything right.

Ugh, I feel ya. My parents are the same exact way. It is extremely rare that they like what we get them - like once in a lifetime rare, haha. I still try to think of something that they'd like, but I've stopped putting so much pressure on myself to pick the perfect gift. Sorry for the rant...

We just have my godson and his 2 brothers to shop for. I think I'm just getting them clothes since they have a ton of toys already.
