What are you buying the family for Christmas

[LeeCory]

I got my son a high end gaming desktop computer, I got my daughter a Dell laptop, and got my mom a new 37 inch LCD tv. Still have to figure out what to get the wife.

I think I will buy myself some more restoration equipment... lol

I still have to get the kids all the normal clothes and stuff but I am spoiling them this year. I got my son a laptop two years ago, but he wants a stronger system for his games. I figure I will take it out of his hide when he graduates this year.

I am doing my share of trying to boost the economy, how about you guys

 

[packfancjh]

I'm buying my family a house this year. We close tomorrow!

 

[Willy P]

Wife- Floor polisher (brick in a sock- wool, of course)
Boys- Some twigs and rocks that have a likeness of Cho Paulish on them.







And some real good stuff too. But not gooder than the above.

 

[Lyman]

The wife- a dildo and a pair of slippers. If she doesn't like the slippers, she can go and f@#% herself.
You guys will be using that one for years.

I am finally breaking down and getting the kids a Wii with a few games.

I make my kids run 3 laps around the block ( 1 mile ) for every hour they play on the video games. The neighbors laugh at the kids running and yell " game time is it?"

 

[steve frasier]

we got a new sound system and HD TV the other day, looks great on the 52" big screen

Kids are going other places, they will get a visa gift card along with new rims for their cars. Glad I do work for a Tire Factory store :shock:

we are taking grandma to the casino for breakfast and a little gambling, come home and take a nap the go the the Blazers game in the evening

I'll be getting me one of those airhog mini helicopters.
I asked for one but don't think anybody is going to get one for me.
So I'll buy it myself.


I don't do shopping unless its for myself.




Blake who is 12 has asked for a electric guitar but I keep telling him he's getting a electric TUBA.

We'll be starting a family band with me on bongos and the wife on tamberine.

He didn't like that idea.

I told my wife she will be getting nothing because of her backtalk.

:shock:

Are you going to wear a loin clothes and body stockings when you do a gig?

 

[Able 1]

For the boy I was thinking 50' of the 2.5 to race his matchbox cars to the basement, he'll get sick of that soon enough and I can store it in my van for him. :wink: The girl?

 

[Able 1]

so true..

 

[TimP]

If business continues as it is so far this month....I'm buying food on the table....heat....a place to sleep....and the essentials.

Actually we have a trip planned. Our son is obsessed with trains and we are going to take him to go ride some trains. If the judson's are open we may stop for a visit but I would think they will be closed. I have to figure out a little something for my wife, but other than that we can't really afford much else.

 

[Jimmy L]

I hear ya Tim we are cutting back as well.

 

[FB7777]

laptop for my oldest
ripstik and 32 inch flat screen LCD for my 9 year old
my 6 yr old princess is getting some overpriced MyTwinn doll that supposedly looks just like her :shock:

wife is getting an electric fireplace for the bedroom

I have no idea what I'm gettin

 

[Chris A]

I think what Larry's trying to say is.... "AMMO"

 

[LeeCory]

I agree with Larry, if you want to get what you really want for Christmas.... you have to get it yourself.

I'm also going to go pick myself up a new Toro 2 stage snowblower this weekend for the other house. Last year when we had the big storm I called around and they were all sold out.

 

[ron markam]

We bought us a 40 inch flat screen lcd and that will be our christmas gift for me and the wife.Other than that buying my sister clothes as an encouragement for losing almost 100 lbs and everyone else gift cards.

 

[The Great Oz]

My wife's a Republican so it depends on what fits better, the Glock 26 or the Walther PPS.

Mom opens her gift first so everyone else will be happy with whatever they get.

I bet you're the best behaved husband in all of Seattle.

 

[KevinL]

Just bought myself 2 rc helicopters, Gateway laptop, new boots, digital picture frame, and a new motor for my 50" cub cadet. Did you guys know that Cub, John Deere and several other brands of light duty riding mowers are made by MTD? The wife's getting the slippers and the dick.

 

[Able 1]

Very funny!

[Aaron Richards]

My wife starts shopping for the kids and neices and nephews as soon as Christmas is over. I used to bitch about it, but when it comes close to winter and money starts getting tight it sure is nice to have it done! We sorted through all the stuff the other night after the kids were asleep and all I can say is CRAP, my kids are spoiled! Next year I'll see if I can get her to cut back a little, but she is real good at buying clearance/mega sale items! Probably the only thing we payed full price for was the Wii. As far as the wife goes, I usually let her pick her own so I know she's happy. This year, however, we aren't buying for eachother since we're doing a complete rebuild of our house. Kinda scary in this economy :shock:
