I haven't done much shopping myself. We are flying across the country on Sunday so I am probably going to wait until we get there to shop. That way I don't have to worry about getting stuff on an airplane and there safely. I have bought a few things. A pair of luggage handle tags for my parents who travel all the time. I got some bath and body products for my parents and my in-laws. We have a ton of really nice wineries near us so I am going to pick up a few bottles to take back with us. Everything else will wait but I have no idea what to buy this year! I am hoping some browsing around will stir up some ideas. Good luck with your shopping!

Nope... not a problem. We are headed to Tennessee where my parents live, to see them for a week. Then we are headed to Alabama where all of my husband's family lives. We will be visiting them for two weeks.

I will give them the things they want like cellphone or clothes. As of now I was looking for those thing that make my family happy if I gave it to them. I am now in a critical conditions in terms of money talk. But I prefer to give them a gift this Christmas.

It really depends on my mood and what I see. For the couples, I usually give them food. It's hard to think of what to give because they already have everything, and in fact, they could probably give us something better. LOL!

So true, its really hard to give gifts to someone who you feel like owns everything already.

hi donsky...i don't have much shopping done yet. it's more what i won't give them and that's plastic gift cards. i gave one to my nephew and it never worked. they took it from him and his father worked hard to get it straightened out, but no word from walmart. from now on it's either an actual gift or it's cash.
