Ho Ho Ho – I Started My Christmas Shopping Today!

Ho, Ho, Ho!!! Well everyone…I went out and braved the mall today to start on some Christmas shopping and it was already a mad house at the mall! Geesh, I really need to start earlier…perhaps July next year!

Anyway, I had my list in hand and visited about 9 different stores at our local mall and only purchased a few things. I was trying to shop for the guys on my holiday list because they are always the hardest for me to shop for. It seems like I never pick the right thing or I can’t find the thing I wanted to buy for them.

I asked my brother in law last week what he wanted for Christmas and he asked me to purchase him a new navy blue cardigan sweater so that he could wear it to work. I was on the hunt today for big and tall clothes but couldn’t find anything decent at the local mall.

Once I returned home I decided to get online and do a search for that type of store so that I could get his Christmas gift purchases out of the way. I found 2 nice online stores today and both had a very nice selection of cardigan sweaters so I ended up purchasing him 2 sweaters and 2 button-down shirts for Christmas. I am excited for their arrival to my home so that I can check them out and get them wrapped up for the holidays.

Have any of you started your holiday shopping yet? Do you mostly do your gift shopping online or offline? Anything in particular you are shopping for this year?
