I love online shopping . I find that my Christmas spirit usually dies in
the mall parking lot while I search for a space. Mall parking lots during the holiday season can make anyone say “Bah Humbug.”
This year, I did all my Christmas shopping at betterworld.com. I bought books at low prices while supporting literacy and enjoying free carbon neutral shipping.
This year, I am also proud to say, I got my holiday shopping done early. Generally, I procrastinate and find myself giving out drawings of the presents I intended to buy.
I tend to get into the holiday spirit late.
I get into the holiday spirit around December 26th when all the
Christmas items go on sale. Suddenly, I feel the spirit.
I like to buy holiday decorations on clearance and give them to my relatives as gifts the following year. If you have a relative that enjoys Santa Clause and decorating, a glowing plastic Santa makes a great gift ( especially at clearance price $5.99 from $29.99!).
Sure they can’t actually “use” it until next Christmas but they will never forget what you bought them for christmas that year.
Well said.
