I am still not finished with Christmas shopping...truth is, not really stressed about it either. I'm enjoying the season, the music, the decorations, the food, the love, friends, my family.
And somehow, shopping always gets done. Doesn't it? Are you starting to get stressed? Don't. We don't ever remember the gifts, we remember where we were, who was there, what we did, and how we felt.
I will probably get the rest of my shopping done early tomorrow morning. Hoping to wake up early and beat the crowds. Don't you just love stores that have extended hours???
Kmart sent me a gift card to help me finish my holiday shopping and also let me know they open really early at most stores (six am)....they must have known my last minute shopping plans. ( : So thankful for this. Been a shopper of Sears for years (remember going there with my mom as a child) and can't tell you how much I love their children's clothes!
GIVEAWAY
They also sent me a $100 Kmart/Sears gift card to giveaway to one of you...they want you to feel special, no stress and know that they have extended their hours specially for people like us who are not only shopping but enjoying their families as well. Both Sear and Kmart have tons of stuff, and that right gift for that special someone.
Leave me any topic related comment on this post....tell me if you are done with your shopping. Who you still need to buy for? I will pick one winner on January 1, 2012 (that felt weird...writing the new year) at 11:59pm. US only. Make sure you leave your email if it's not already on your profile so I can contact you. Good luck!
*update: Congrats to Danielle (the Knapps), the winner of the gift card!

I'm also finished with my Christmas shopping and I have to say that I enjoyed every second of it!
How was Legoland? We've never been there and it looks like a lot of fun!
jackie_tranguch@hotmail.com
I'm so glad you are enjoying your time with the things that really matter. I hate feeling stressed because of shopping..and I was! We are off and I had to get it all done plus packing, and so forth earlier than most people. It looks like we are in your area and going to Legoland for the first time next Friday! Yayyy! Merry Christmas my friend!
and I hope I win ;)
All finished and wrapped and waiting for Christmas. Thanks so much and Happy HOlidays.

I love shopping at K-mart for christmas decorations and holiday sweaters!
I hope I'm done, it is 4 almost on xmas eve.
I started my Christmas shopping in November and was mostly done by the 2nd week of December.

I am not fond of shopping . The crowds make me feel all closed in and I then feel rushed. I usually finish shopping the weekend before Christmas.
I'm all finished with my Christmas Shopping but am right now baking also.

Thanks for the great giveaway!
Kmart was a lifesaver for holiday shopping this year - I was able to put a number of items on layaway instead of braving the crowds on Black Friday, and I racked up some major points on my Shop Your Way Rewards account at the same time. Would love to go back for the post-Christmas sales!
gkaufmanss@yahoo.com
We don't do a lot of shopping for the holidays - for us, it's the special time spent with family that's most important. asthenight at gmail dot com

My husband did all the shopping for us this year and did a fine job!
This was my most organized year yet. I was all done by the 20th. My daughter came home from school, but for only 5 days so I wanted to use our time together wisely
I was proud of myself this year - I had all of my shopping done a couple of weeks early. It really did help to make the holidays more enjoyable! Gonna try to repeat this next year, but no promises! ;)

This year my husband and I decided not to exchange gifts because we are having another baby. We thought we would just save the money for now. That's really nice you got to take your kids to Legoland, hope someday we can too.
aisha(at)theholleyherald(dotcom)
This year was wonderful. I finished so early. When I saw gifts throughout the year for people I needed items for, I bought them and placed them in the closet. All I needed to do right after Thanksgiving was wrap. Easy peasy.
My kids were very happy with their gifts this year. My 2 year old LOVES her dollhouse.

Yes, I was done by Christmas and didn't have to run out for anything the day before Christmas. Think I am going to shop throughout the year this coming year so that I don't have so much to do in December. This giveaway would be the perfect start. Thank you! katbirdfl (at) gmail (dot) comj
Yes, I was done around Dec. 15. Soon I will shop for next year. Thanks.

We managed to do ALL of our Christmas shopping at Amazon and Shutterfly this year. What a lovely thing it was to just wait for everything to appear on our doorstep! :)
That said, I would definitely use a gift card to Kmart/Sears. It's our 10th anniversary on January 4th so maybe a gift? Either that, or we need new cookie sheets.
stephanie@metropolitanmama.net
I finished my Christmas shopping early although I didn't have too much to do. We had a very low-key Christmas this year, focusing more on good food and spending time together as a family than on material possessions.

I did some of my shopping at K-mart, but there is this one really pushy cashier who seems to be there all the time (she pushes the credit cards).
We need a new fake tree, so I'll be checking out their after sale.
Since Christmas is over, I am already starting to think about next year. I like to shop throughout the year.

It has been great to enjoy the Holidays without a lot of stress this year.
We hosted a fondue on Christmas Eve and went to a friend's house for Christmas dinner.
On boxing day, we hosted the whole family and some friends with a pot luck dinner.
This week, we are enjoying visiting with friends and family.
Thanks for offering this great giveaway opportunity. Goodness knows, I love to shop!

I would use it to feather a new nest. Because I have so many rare medical disorders, I have to move from the west coast to the east coast, which means leaving a lot behind and picking up new items to furnish another apartment.
I love your attitude girl. It's right on! I wish everyone could be that way. It's not about the hustle & bustle; it's about enjoying your family and you have a great gift of being present in the moment and really doing that. Just one of many things I love about you. xo
