Gift Closet 2023
- Thread starter Myron's Mom
- Start date
Last week we drove thru part of the States on our way to the camp grounds making a stop at Bronner’s and the little shops in the area.
We picked up the ornaments for the grandchildren and a light up well, hay bails and a pumpkin for DGS halloween village (birthday gift)
We also when to the cherry republic store and grabbed a couple jars of cherry salsa and cherry ketchup. The one jar of salsa will go into the gift basket for in-laws. Other jar and ketchup is for us.

Rose, sounds like some great finds. I love the sound of the cherry salsa.
Target has some games on clearance up to 50% off and found a board game for a family an extended family member. Found a couple puzzle books for our DD.
Rose, I love bronners! Frankenmuth was always a fun place to spend a few days.
Bath and body works has 40% off today. I got tons of the pocket sanitizers. Some for my son and for others on my gift list, the rest for us, we are totally out. Sons shampoo was on sale at the grocery store so finished with that. And a few movies from dollar tree for my husband.

Grocery shopping this week. Have anchovies on the list for DSIL stocking. He loves them.
Ordered Temptation oven gloves for my friends. Other than some gourmet chocolate that I’ll buy later (already earmarked money for that) they are both done.
DMIL's digital picture frame came today and I gave it to DSIL who was visiting, to take back to her.
At 94 years of age it's probably foolish to wait until Hanukkah to gift it.

Added a Hallmark ornament for oldest DS and a couple skin care items for youngest DD to the gift closet. Also got my butterfly ornaments. Will put them in the gift closet as well so they will be easy to find when it comes time to put the tree up.
Half way through the year. As part of CIJ I will empty the GC and see where am at. I think I am doing OK with stocking fillers, not sure on the gifts. I like to check now so I can either slow down or get moving.
So I didn't buy anything, but I helped my brother purchase half his Christmas gifts on Amazon Prime Day this past week. This will avoid the stress I have trying to get him to get his gift purchased and wrapped so I can get them out to my daughter and grandaughter on time. Someone gave him some gift cards and when I suggested he use them for early Christmas shopping he agreed. After we were done and they started arriving he said "wow, this feels really good to get this out of the way"...I'm like YES IT DOES!!!!! hahaha Let me add, yes he's an adult, but he lives in my home and I'm his primary caregiver and ANTI PROCRASTINATOR COACH. 
From Prime Day:
- a sketch pad for DDIL
- an air fryer cheat sheet for DS
- digital picture frame for DMIL which I already gave to DSIL to take to her and set up in the nursing home

Just bought DB a Lego kit and DD a Mr Potato Head. Toys for the adults in my life.
Also placed an order for some soda stream syrups for gifts and to use over the Summer. Got DSIL a trio of "classic American flavours" A cherry cola, a root beer and a Dr Peter flavour. I hope he likes them.

I went to the Lego store in the mall
Lego: Who are you shopping for?
Me: My son.
Lego: Oh, how old is he?
Me: 42.
Did they recommend anything fun? I'm looking for something for Vic and Sophia for Christmas. If they work on a project together, they won't fight!
They had a lot of Star Wars stuff, a piano and an Atari machine - lots of cars too.Did they recommend anything fun? I'm looking for something for Vic and Sophia for Christmas. If they work on a project together, they won't fight!
