Any Where and Everywhere, but it depends on what Im getting the person.

which is probably the mall..(local Stores)

Pharaoh · 24-December-05, 01:46 AM

I went down town to shop.
Suprisingly I cussed less this year while shopping. less cussing = less crowd!

The Mall seen I knew would be horible and the thought of Wall Mart was frightning.

All online, various places. I did my Christmas shopping late this year - I started in September & finished in October (apart from food).

Where ever the Deals Call me

(BUY>>BUY>>BUY)

BigAkita · 24-December-05, 07:07 PM

Wal-Mart of course. Is there anyplace else to shop?

Actually, I got some of my greatest gifts straight off the trading post here this year. The Boyz are older now so we got more clothes than usual and picked them up at the Great Mall of the Great Plains.

Didn't do any shopping this year except for the television I bought my parent's from Best Bastards....er, I mean, Best Buy.

With the nieces and nephews, I took them out for a day of fun to watch a movie (boys wanted to see Harry Potter and the girls wanted to see Narnia), hang out, and have dinner together. They get more out of that than they do a toy that gets trashed within a week and winds up in the trash the following week.

droeblek9 · 25-December-05, 03:51 AM

About half and half...i really would have liked to do all of my shopping online, but some of the gifts really needed to be seen/picked in person.

Slaymate · 26-December-05, 07:16 PM

I bought everything online except for my mom's present. She wanted a custom golf club (driver), so I had it made at the local country club. I actually got off pretty easy with her present. Just what she wanted and only $140. That's about a grand cheaper than the last 2 years

musclecars&computers · 26-December-05, 07:42 PM

a few store bought ones but mostly gift cards.

TimberWolf · 26-December-05, 07:57 PM

vf1000ride · 28-December-05, 09:01 PM

Half and half. Some magazine stuff and computer parts online. Bunch of music and other stuff at the local shops.
