My family made it easy this year. We put the 5 of our names in a bowl, and pulled names. That was the only one we had to buy for. So I had to buy for my mom and my sister bought for me. My mom is easy to buy for, and my sister took me shopping and let me pick something out. So it was easy for me Smile

We just buy for whoever we want. I don't have a job so I wasn't expected to buy anything. I tried to spend no more than $250 total since that's about all I can afford - $115 per parent and $20 for Joe.

I just buy junk anyways so there's no need to spend more money. I got my mom a navigation system for the car on Black Friday and I got my dad some Waterford crystal wine glasses along with a bottle of wine and some Tullamore Dew whiskey in a gift set. He doesn't drink much whiskey but thinks he's Irish and the shooters of that were so expensive you might as well buy a bottle.

My family just goes store hopping, in each store we spend like 2-3 hours and we just figure, "oh hey, they would like that" and throw it in the cart.

On a side note, I got my sister $50 earrings on sale for $12 for Christmas. I also got her a matching necklace (also $50 on sale for $12). It has her birthstone and everything.

There are some pretty enticing sales out there!

I ended up getting my sister a gift. It turned out she got me a $50 Visa gift card so I got her some perfume. I feel bad because I didn't actually buy it for her - my mom mentioned my sister got me a gift late Xmas Eve night so she sold me the perfume.

At least you gave her something. I finally went Christmas shopping after you left and got my little sister the last Twilight book because my step mom said she couldn't find. Turns out she bought it for her and "forgot" so had me buy it too.

Everything about it was awful.

Especially Edward Cullen.

The acting was just... bad. The people didn't look right at all. They are supposed to look "perfect", and that is not what I consider perfect. I thought they could have done a lot more with a lot of the stuff. The only good part of it was the baseball.... and that just looked cool.

Baseball is the glory of any movie! =]
