Where will you be doing most of your Christmas shopping?
« on: November 24, 2017, 09:36:45 pm »
For toys and things for kids, I like Walmart. If I am giving an adult something to wear, I like JC Penney or Macy's.

I did a lot of toy shopping yesterday, over the internet.  Got some good deals from Walmart and Toys R Us :D

Honestly most of my shopping came from Amazon.  I got everything I wanted and it was a lot cheaper there than in actual stores.

So far I have done most of my shopping on line. I have been looking for deals so I have been buying from whoever has the best deal.

Mostly maybe Wal-Mart, or places that have sales going on.

As the years have progressed, I am doing more and more shopping at Amazon, and other websites.  It is so much easier than fighting traffic and crowds. However, if I run into something I like at a retail store throughout the year, I usually grab it up and save it for Christmas, but I have very few presents where I make it a point to shop in a store location.

I did my shopping yesterday and today. I had my FC funds and other program funds to pay for the retail stores and my amazon credits for the rest of it. No out of pocket money spent :)

I did a lot of my shopping a couple months ago. No Black Friday this year for me. I think I will finish up online.

I buy the few presents I do give on Amazon. I guess I'm just lazy and don't want to get out in the crowds. Also, I usually have a pretty good idea what I want to get someone, so it's easier to find it online than shopping a physical store. :)

At least 1/2 of it on Amazon, thanks to gift cards I got from other sites.  The rest will be a mix of online or in store depending on the find.

I was all done Christmas shopping on October thirty first. I ordered everything on line and met my goal of not setting foot in a single store, wasting gas driving to the mall, spending time looking for a parking spot at the mall or dealing with unpleasant people whether they were fellow shoppers or pushy sales people. I will pick up one more gift next Sunday on my regularly scheduled bi-monthly visit to Costco. I still have not found a less expensive alternative to Costco online. I might order a few small things like Starbuck's mugs with gift cards that I have earned. I am waiting to see if my parents will be in town for the Holidays. I try to get them things that go with wherever they be like a beach basket if they are in a warm climate, etc., etc. Their whereabouts change with the twitch of an eye.
