There is so much crap out there, isn’t there? I am one that finds christmas shopping hard. While I do not mind the christmas crush and the crowds.. because most people are a little nicer at christmas.. well maybe.. lol.

My family live in other cities and we only catch up infrequently on the phone, so I find it hard to stay up to date with their changes and the things that inspire them.

One great idea that a family member instituted in the last couple of years is a family chris kringle. So, we only have to worry about buying one person a present out of the family. Rather than everyone.

This not only saves stress, but also money. And I spend more than I would have on the person, and (so the theory goes) can get them something they really need.
