My girls age 19 & 23 just want a prepaid gift card. <br /><br />Our family usually does a big noon meal - so we often have fit the shops on Thanksgiving evening. One year it was Bass Pro, last year it was Michael's. Dollar General is open all day on Thanksgiving - that's not right. The employees need to be home for most of the day.hclairechttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06923689269749413374noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-578129912685313780.post-43875780779218712752010-11-23T06:35:06.282-06:002010-11-23T06:35:06.282-06:00My husband was telling me about how some of the st...My husband was telling me about how some of the stores were opening Thanksgiving night. Seriously? Would you really want someone leaving their Thanksgiving celebration to buy you a gift? <br /><br />Anyway...I love the Target lady, but I'm with you, I'll participate in Cyber Monday but Friday I'll be at home decorating for the season.Karen https://www.blogger.com/profile/02441070110507014088noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-578129912685313780.post-14105866219043046652010-11-23T03:11:25.570-06:002010-11-23T03:11:25.570-06:00well, i try to shop all year long, collecting gift...well, i try to shop all year long, collecting gifts for people when i see something on clearance or sale, i buy it. this spreads out my christmas gift budget as well, by the time christmas rolls around, it feels like the gift was free. this year i got some half priced halloween petticoats (looked a lot like tu-tus to me) i can just remove the halloween-ish tag and wrap them up for my 2 ballerina neices. I also buy a lot of gift baskets/boxes after christmas to give people throughout the year, like bridal and baby showers, birthdays and houswarming. i have a box of gifts i go shopping in whenever i need something quickly. this year, we are doing goodie bags for the kids who come to our christmas party, and a cookie tray for each family, and not buying individual gifts for everyone.cyndihttp://lofteeideas.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.com
