I took a sheet of paper.
I wrote down all of the people I need to have Christmas presents for. (No gift suggestions. Just names.)
I gave it to Hubby.
And sent him on his way.

UPDATE
Okay. Hubby blew me away. He purchased almost everything (minus two gifts) and the gifts were all awesome!!! Way better than I would have done.
Of course, I’m afraid to look at the bank account…
Alison,
I love Walt’s wrapping paper. That is too cool!!
I love it when the dh goes shopping. He’s the MOST fun at Christmas because he buys bizarre things I’ve never even seen in my life. He just picks up items, not intending them for anyone in particular, then decides who gets them. And he wraps them.
He did bring my oldest daughter’s big gift home last night. It requires assembly, is in a big box, so he wrapped it with Wal-Mart bags stapled on and then decorated it with all the Christmas cards we’ve received. Can’t say he’s not creative, LOL!
Yeah for Sylvia’s husband!:grin:
Don’t look at the bank account.
For those last two gifts..cash in a pretty card is always nice. Even kids like cash:mrgreen:
I tried that on my hubby and he *a-hem* misplaced the list, and came home with loads of stuff - all for himself. Bloody useless.
What annoys me, even after a few years together, is he does his Christmas shopping on Christmas Eve. He did that every year, even long before he met me. No matter how early in the year or how many times I reminded him, he delayed it right up to last three hours of the day.
Please tell me that he’s not the only one who does that?
You are braver than I am. Let us know how it turns out.
