Who's doing last minute shopping??

So I get paid tomorrow, and MAY do abit of shopping that night, but the plan is to do most of it friday, and christmas eve. I havent bought even ONE gift at all! lol! I get off work at 5:30pm friday, so by the time i get home, eat, and get ready, probably closer to 7pm. Then I have to go leave for Rev in kitchener at about 9:45pm roughly. SO, I think alot of my shopping will be done christmas eve! NOT GOOD!

Who else super procrastinated and hasnt done ANYTHING yet!??

I totally do this every year. I'm going on thursday night and friday night and hopefully will be done after that.. last year we ended up driving from K/W to TO in a snowstorm to shop (so stupid, but me and my friend had yet to buy presents for ppl so we went anyway..)

HAHA! Oh Danny....

I power shop..I make a list, and I go and get EVERYTHING in one day. It might take 2-3 trips, but I HAVE to do it all at once, or I would definitely keep putting it off..haha!

Good luck Christmas Eve, it's gonna be craaaazy out there!

Get paid Friday, so I'm getting off work a little earlier. Have 3 hours to finish all my shopping before I pick up gf at her work and head out of town. It'll be interesting...

*raises hand*

but i don't really ever have a ton of shopping to do... i'll finish it all in a few hours one day this week... i find if i get it all done @ once there's less temptation to treat myself to something...

Starting tonight.

I haven't bought anything for my sister's kids.

I did most of my shopping a month ago but there have been a few things I wanted to pick up for Mrs. Hazard that have thus far elluded me. So I'll be running wild tomorrow trying to find them.

I started and finished my shopping on Monday (in 4 hours!)

This is the best time to go shopping if you can put up with the crowds - most things are on SALE!!

I just wouldn't go shopping on Boxing Day unless there was a really good deal on something I wanted.

Good luck!

I went to Best Buy on boxing day last year..... lined up at 5am for 2 hours.... but I scored a 43"DLP TV for $1500 off so it was worth it.

i just got back into town a few days ago so no presents for me yet. maybe today or tomorrow. too many people to see and it gets in the way of shopping. heh, thats what i'll be telling the ones i forgot to get a present for.

Jesus. Dont even talk to me about this shit......

I always wait 'til the final week, PLUS - i've got my Dad's B-Day on the 14th and my Mom's B-Day on the 21st. Usually the day i get finished (every year), seems to be the 23rd......

I feel your pain - I have my parent's anniversary on the 23th and my sister's birthday on the 26th. Which reminds me, I still have to go shopping for that!

We don't celbrate Christmass and we usually give presents for New Year, so I do 99% of my shopping on the boxing day

Friday at Eaton Centre is gonna be a zoo but I gotta brave the crowd and buy some final.

Posted by Misanthrope on Dec-21-2005 17:13:

I'm staying well away from all the stores on Friday. Holy crap, you people are insane.

OH Danny-boy.

You sound like me from 2003. I did EVERYTHING (all my shopping) on Dec. 24th from about noon on.

I finished writting my last exam at 12noon, then drove 45mins STRAIGHT to barrie to meet up w/ a friend and did it all that day!

I was impressed w/ myself! It was fun!

This year, I'm all done except for my Gran Scharf, and maybe my cousin dustin, though I still need to buy Christmas cards for many ppl on my list, but thats not major at all.

Im proud of myself. Did all my last wkend and the weekend before it in Barrie.
