Just found my mum’s favourite soft drink in a bigger bottle. I can only get it from this state so bought a few bottles for stockings

Picked up another movie for my husband.
I went to the thrift shop Christmas sale this morning and found a really cute primitive style snowman pin for my friend.

When to bath and body yesterday and grabbed some body wash for gifts. They had a good one day sale and only needed a couple more for gifts.
Also when to dollarama and picked up a few head pieces in their Halloween section for DGD Christmas gift. She wants some more dress up clothes. I got a couple headbands with one having a cone shape hat, and unicorn horn. Also got some wings and a eye mask. Just need to remove the Halloween tags etc that they are attached to.

For DH I have picked up a wooden rack cleaner for the bbq and from Winners some pasta in an usual shape for DD’s gift basket.

I grabbed some scissors (2 pack) to put into Jaymees stocking. I think I will do her stocking with things like that. Stapler, batteries, and such. Items that are needed once in awhile and you don't have then.

Just ordered a bunch of stuff on my husbands list from amazon. I have one thing to get for him at Home Depot and he is done. I may get a few more movies if I happen to see them but they will be after thought things. Don’t know why but I am feeling like I’m running out of time.

Just picked up some great metal drink bottles for stockings. They will be great as a waste free option. A well known Australian brand...2 bottles for $4.95. Got one for all of us

I think that this is a great idea. Batteries of all sizes, pencils, notebooks, all those little essential things.

Back in May I had won a gift card from the yarn shop(if you don’t need a bag for your purchase your name goes into a draw) for a gourmet and gift store around the corner from the yarn shop. Stopped in yesterday while in the area and came home with some infused herd olive oil for DD gift basket and four chocolate mice for the DGC. They are in a cute little triangle shape box with a little bit of the story from the night before Christmas—‘Twas the night....not even the mouse’

Just need to get some plotted herbs and DD basket will be done.

Supermarket reward card is now up to $40 in redeemable cash off a purchase. Hoping to get to $50 by Christmas and I will buy DH father a gift card. Was going to do him a gift basket of food like I have done for the past few years but with his cancer diagnosis DH thinks we need to do something else.

I bought the last of my husband’s gifts yesterday. Any thing else will be extras. I was going to get him some gift cards but the deals haven’t been very good. Will wait to see what Black Friday brings.
