I bought my daughter some hollister clothing online. It will arrive shortly. I also bought her some other clothing from this other high priced store. I shopped the clearance section though. Have you started your holiday shopping yet? What are you buying the family this year?

Not yet although I know that 17 days to go before christmas but I really loved to go shopping since it removes my stress. But next week I'm planning to shop for gifts and my clothes for the upcoming christmas and hopefully my budget would fit.

I have a few more gifts to get as well. It looks like my budget will not permit too many more gifts.

Hey! I love Hollister! You chose correctly in shopping in the clearance section. The only big problem I experience while shopping on Hollister's clearance (on the website), is that they never have the sizes I need. I usually wear a size Large in their tank tops and hoodies, and the selection of sizes for clearance are usually REALLY limited to sizes xs and s, from what I've seen. So that's just a random frustration I have with shopping at Hollister. But you did choose correctly to shop online rather than in-store. Man! Even as someone who loves their clothes, I CANNOT STAND going to the mall, having to inhale WAY too much perfume & cologne from the stuff they spray on their clothes (and what the workers wear on them.. ugh!) and it's just a chaotic mess. Online is the best option, really. So I'm glad you chose that method. If you're looking for cheaper Hollister clothes, too, you could always try Consignment shops & thrift stores! A lot of local places in my area will sell you new-ish merchandise for about 1/4 of the price. It's a good deal, and chances are, the people you buy it for will have NO idea you got it at such a good discount. Ok..Now on to your question! LOL. I've gotten most of my presents done, but I still have a few here and there to catch up on. I mainly get people gift cards, just to make it easier (and to not hear complaints later on) and exactly what they ask for or what I know they need. For example, I know my dad NEEDS an upgrade for his old coffee pot, so that's what I got him! I'm excited for him to open it. It's really nice.

I found it was hard to buy the sizes I needed as well. I needed med and it was a lot of small on sale. I still bought a few items and left the site.

Hello. Yes, I guess I should say I have started shopping. Haven't bought any thing yet, but have started going around the big shopping malls here in the city, looking around to see what I should buy for whom. That takes a little while. Once decided, I would go ahead and get all. Yes, ofcourse, I shoildn't miss the sales being put up too ! LOL !

Yes, I have. My husband and I are pretty much all set with regards to our Christmas shopping. I don't think that we're completely finished with our shopping, but we only have one or two things left.
