I like the part that says "Shop early-- finish shopping by Dec. 24th. . ." Must be written by some one like my husband :grin: If it's finished before Christmas Day, it's early!.

HAHA! I never picked up on that! That's so true-why is it like pulling teeth to get them to pick something up before they absolutly HAVE to! He must like my hair grey-or spending money on my hair dye! :slap:

Ya'll are so much fun to hang out with! Those guys don't have a clue. Reminds me that I need to focus on the savings part of my Holiday budget & start my shopping earlier. Thought I was finally clued in after last year. Even made my 2007 Budget in January, but decided to cut about $100. Of course it works on paper, but real life is a different story. Well, I still have hope for next year & think I'll come $50 under my 2006 totals! Woohoo... now to finish up my shopping for this year. Am I the only one who hadn't started decorating yet?
