Anyone shopping?

My spending this year will not like last year that is for sure.

No sick cat..$1500..No new car purchase.No expensive Christmas presents.. No driving trip..


Shopping for DS and I already bought them..


Going today to Le Creuset Outlet for ME>>>  

Other then that, I am good....

We send checks or gift cards to the girls and grandchildren. Haven't gone shopping in years.

I did much of mine online. Now all I have to do is wait for all the packages to arrive. So much easier.

I bought 2 gift card today but I prefer to buy gift.

I gave up on giving presents to my cousin's kids. They are all adults now, in their 20's and did not give me anything, except when they were living at home and their mom's gave a 'family' gift to me. So I am done spending money on them. They do not seem to care, anyway.

I have just a few small gifts to get. Like for my hairdresser, another stylist in there and a new girl.
Barb, any ideas? I have been going there for 35 years!! Yup! that long!

Also, a gift for a friend of mine (small one), a gift for my cousin, especially his wife who is always keeping in touch with me and having me over for supper. Not sure what to get because she is so good with crafts. She quilts, sews, makes up baskets to sell at craft fairs, etc....

and just a bottle of wine for my superintendent...and I think that is it...
not much at all.

I really cut back. I cannot afford all the gift giving that I used to do...
Besides, I always wondered if they were really appreciated.
