I've been putting off shopping for my recipient since my budget is a bit tight this month. I was going to go shopping as soon as I got paid on the first but then I remembered the mail is super slow so I might run out of time to get the damn things. So I just gave in and did it today. Hopefully that won't come back to bite me.

I understand that feeling.  I'm spreading out my Christmas purchases over two months so help disburce that hit to the wallet.  I got like 80% of my recipient done....now it's a matter of how much "bonus" gifts they get.

Same.  Trying to think of a couple nice touches to round out the package.

Same lol. We're all in the same boat! And glad I ordered when I did...jeez...I hope nothing is wrong with the stuff I ordered. I'm not going to get it until Dec 1st...maybe. That doesn't leave a lot of wiggle room if something is wrong.

My giftee is a little difficult since they only listed games so any "bonus" items I work in will be up to my imagination. lol.

Wiggle room can be added, as long as you are showing you are making an effort!!!!

So... Seeing how I had to cancel my flight, and get a few bucks back from my rental, I am willing to send off any X'mas cards to those who are brave enough willing to get one from me. 🎄

bad report form the usps. all my items have been listed a late delivery and to expect them between 1 dec to 5 dec.  don't look like my giftee will have in time. 

Yes, this is why we started ealier this year, hopefully the usps will get their act together, I would hate to have to send Bender in to get them in line!  On second thought, that sounds like a wonderful idea!

I managed to get most of my shopping done, for this and everyone else I’m shopping for. My problem is I don’t always pay attention where something I ordered is coming from, so I didn’t notice until I got the shipping notification that something I ordered for my giftee is coming from Italy and may not arrive in time for me to send my package to them. Fingers crossed.

The first half of my gift came today. The second half is going to take it's sweet time. I ordered them the same exact day within minutes of each other...just shows how slow some sellers are at shipping.

So you're saying I SHOULDN'T wait until the last minute...
