I have only two things left to buy and I am all done! I do about 85% of my shopping online. I get the best deals and bargins. the latest coupons. Best of all, I earn cash back on everything i buy online!! What is better then that? check out how i do that http://www.bigcrumbs.com/crumbs/landing.do?r=road2freedom&s=21592
So are you doing shopping? are you getting any good deals and making cash back on your online shopping?

I've resorted to online shopping this year for the first time and I gotta say, it's been a hoot and except for a few things I know I can get in the city, I'm about done too. The hubs and I have decided that except for a few fun gifts for under the tree on Xmas morning, this year, our major shopping for each other will be done on boxing day as we've never done the boxing day sales thing before..........or at least HE hasn't. lol He's gonna hate it, but it's such a gift to know he's game to try it for my sake.

Back in the day when the world still had class and plastic shopping bags hadn't been invented yet (and yes I remember those days! lol), there were more large department stores around and everything you bought from them was packaged in a box with tissue paper. So 'Boxing Day' became the day after Christmas when people returned the unsuitable gifts they received in the boxes they came in. These days, Boxing Day is just an excuse for the stores to hold huge sales which attract huge crowds.

I am getting close to done. I would say 75%. I haven't bought my daughter anything yet. I am still waiting. She is pretty down on her luck and I am just waiting to see what to do for her.

I am not done with everything, but I bought some gifts in Europe last week.
I am kind of person that needs to touch everything for quality before I buy to avoid disappointment when buying online...

Hey, you posted a referral link and got away with it. I shop that way too but I use an Aussie site. Not all my shopping is done this way, i can't seem to track down a0 good deals or b0 good products. It's a pain cos I live in the middle of nowhere which is a long way from anywhere.

I actually ordered the last two Christmas presents that I had to get today from Amazon. I did a lot of my shopping very early this year and then finished up for everyone except for my husband and his brother on Black Friday. I knew what I wanted to get for my husband, but I couldn't find one in the store on Friday so I knew that I had to order it and then for my brother-in-law, I didn't find out that he was our name exchange until later on Black Friday and he too wanted something very specific that I couldn't find in the stores so I ordered that today as well.

I was done with my holiday shopping back in September. I knew what I wanted to give to everyone, and I just ordered it on line. I just had to sit back and wait for it all to be delivered. It all arrived by the end of October, and then I wrapped it. All I had to do in November and December was to write the Christmas cards.
