-- Who's doing last minute shopping??

I actually find it way easier to do shopping last minute...cause its ALL GUYS and random teens/early adults doing the shopping... they are the easiest to deal with/shop with...they usually have specific lists and they stick to them like whoa....

early Christmas shopping is just full of bitchy older ladies who freak out about EVERY LITTLE detail and who are just plain rude and who make big deals out of everything and no matter how early they show up to shop they act like they have no time to wait and that you standing in the aisle they are also trying to get down is like the END OF THE WORLD, or if something doesn't come in the right size or colour they want they act like the person working there did it on purpose just to thwart their goal of getting that PERFECT gift....

ahhh i hope i never turn out like those kinds of women... working in retail has definately made me more sympathetic for others in my part-time work position...ESPECIALLY at this time of year

I concur.
Focused shopping is where it's at...

Me. And I only have one person to buy for...

I'm going tonight after work and hopefully I'll be finished.

I've been pretty good this year. Got most of my shopping done already and the only ppl left on the list are my parents. I still have no idea what to get them.
