Gift Closet 2020

[Myron's Mom]

I need to order the Pyrex with the cats as a gift for me.

Ive been trying to do some shopping when I go out but I’m not having much luck. Nothing for my husband. The only things I got this week and last for my son is toilet paper, shampoo, body wash and a bottle of wine.

I love seeing all the decorative Pyrex, but I never buy any. So cute!!

I went to the supermarket today and found a yogurt maker, not sure who I will gift that to. I also saw that a 4 pack of Pepsi glass bottles was on sale for 2.90 but the use by date was September, DS loves Pepsi Max so thought that that might be a good gift for him. He is 32 but I could write on the tag that it was from Santa. I think he would like that. I will add it to the shopping list for later in the year.

Bought my son a golf shirt at kohl’s. I found another copy of the movie “Last Hero’s of D Day “ at dollar tree for him. I had got one for my husband and he loved it. It’s done by the BBC and has interviews of survivors. My husband was pretty choked up over some of the interviews. Great for a history buff! I also finished buying his toilet paper!!!

Gift cards for my son since I got bonus grocery points for them. I may go back next week for a few more since the special is still going on.

Our supermarket offers a rewards system too. 2000 points equals $10. I have $10 on my card that I can redeem off a shop.I save the points and use them for Christmas time.

Only reward our supermarket gives is we get to bag our own groceries and take them out to our car with no help.

Shopping yesterday yielded a few more items for the gift closet.
I got my Mum a set of 4 glass storage dishes similar to Pyrex. She thought that they would be useful. I got a few stocking items, Micellar cleansing gel for DD, toothpaste for DFSIL and some fun sized chocolates.

I also picked up all of the items that I wanted for the food drive at the local library, the prices were good yesterday and the use by dates were fine so picked up tinned tomatoes, pasta, rice and tinned vegetables. Mum will store them at her house until it is time to take to the library.
We also finished buying the items for a charity we are supporting this year called "Share the dignity". They need things like tampons and pads and personal care items.

Just saw that pyrex.com is introducing a new take on the classic Mickey Mouse. Looks like the vintage Mickey from Steamboat Willie. Available June 30th on their website.

Got a whole lot of stocking fillers when shopping yesterday. Got Mum some non scratch kitchen sponges and a large bottle of drinking water, I also got her a tube of hand cream. Got the boys some different flavoured salts for cooking, the had 3 different varieties so I think the boys will like those. I found some hair masks on sale so got 1 of those for DS who sometimes has a dry scalp.
I have got a few more things to get from my stocking filler list and they will be done.

Loveless Cafe in Nashville

YUM! Just YUM! If you've never eaten there and ever get a chance...do it! You won't regret it. If there's a long line, and there usually is, it's worth the wait.

New M&Ms coming for the holiday season - look for them in November - White Chocolate Sugar Cookie - would look great in a Mason jar with a festive topper - does anyone do that anymore? Cut a square of fabric, usually with pinking shears on the edges, and then place it on top of the jar lid but under the screw on part? I made them for Sophia her first year of college for Halloween - candy corn, Halloween M&Ms and something else, all with three different Halloween fabric toppers.

So funny you would mention that! My cousin was talking about doing that today for gifts when we were shopping. I’m giving her some of my mason jars.
I’ll have to look for them when they come out. Our friend loves M&Ms.

Wonder if we will be lucky enough to get them here. Sometimes we get them sometimes we don’.(new favours that is )

 

[sweetpumkinpye]

We don't seem to get the holiday M&M's here. I do though fill jars with the kids favourite lollies and tie them with a nice bow. They are a little gift from Santa for under the tree.

DS gets Twizzlers and DDIL likes gummibears so they each get large jars/packages of each

 

[Myron's Mom]

Found some hand held hummingbird feeders and a credit card wallet for my husband today. Got my son a few packages of yeast and deodorant lol.

Our 2019 Christmas pollyanna theme was "M." The gift was something that started with M. Mason Jars filled with treats of various sorts was what a lot of people came up with. There were jars filled with M & M's and jars filled with specialty tea bags. They had festive scrapbook paper and fabric on top and ribbon wrapped around the jar.

I ordered DH's big present yesterday, a very large cooler. He got one for Christmas last year and has said all along that it would be great to have a second one for when we do a big grocery shop. I looked online and found one and delivery will be free, I have sent it to Mum's address and she will store it for me. Glad to have that done.

Have a order coming Monday from the nra for my husband. Spent this evening ordering on amazon and target for him too. Everything is supposed to be in stock, if it all comes I should be in pretty good shape for him. Husband ordered a chef’s knife for our
son for me. I also ordered some supplies for making next year’s gifts. Feeling a little better since the stores are pretty empty here.
