I hate Christmas shopping! The crowds. The parking. UGH! I'm doing ALL my shopping on-line (with the exception of a few gift cards I'll give).
What's your stance on Christmas shopping?

I'm with you.
I had a call to do at Newport Mall today and wanted to strangle the majority of the foreign patron, pissfuckers.
I had another call there later tonight, but the stores were all closed. The jackoffs were setting up the Santa display and hanging up lights from the rafters. My job sucks this time of year. The last thing I want to do is shop.

Yeah, finding a life online is rough.

I think I'm gonna do the same and just have it sent to my parents' place. Less stuff for me to carry. Homestarrunner.com (http://store.yahoo.com/homestarrunner/), here I come!

Newport Mall
I live 3 blocks from that mall. That mall makes me hate humanity.

Im starting to order more and more online. I dont care if I have to pay 5 bucks shipping, its worth avoding the hassle and the amount of items on the internet is a million times any mall.

go to Broadway in Bayonne... it's close, there's parking, and they have a few nice shops. then stop in one of the local diners or restaurants for a bite.
i used to shop there all the time, Kodak Jewelers, Variations for fine Woman's Clothes, another store on the corner for nightgowns and slippers, stockings, etc. And they have the Schwartz toystore too.

LL Bean and Amazon, gotta love 'em!
Whats Ive been trying to get established in my family for a few years now is a grab bag or a Secret Santa. At Thanksgiving, we would all put our names in a hat after dinner and pick out one name that we have to buy for. Of course we would still get stuff for the little kids though, its the adults Im talking about.

I give cash and gift certificates -- that minimizes my holiday shopping experience.

I did that one year, it was a real time saver from going to the malls and stores. I might do it again this year.

I plan to do this every christmas for the rest of my life.

Funkman,
I never would have guessed that you were into....oh, never mind!!!
Seriously, I have Christmas shopped for 3 years now on the internet and will never again darken the doorstep of another mall or department store again. The conveniance that this affords me is indescribable and I don't have to put up with the malodorous throngs that crowd into these establishments. I just finished all of my shopping this weekend and I am FINISHED!!!!
