No crowds, no screaming kids, no traffic, and I can shop in my PJs....ahhhh, life is good.....
What, if anything, are you buying online this year? I got some books and CDs from Barnes&Noble and a great Tower of Treats for my family pollyanna from Harry & David (and some bing cherry chocolates for ME!).

I try and do all my shopping on line. Usually just some stocking stuffer things are from malls.

I did the big stuff for the DH online, and some things for the girlie.
The couple other things I need to pick up can be done during off peak hours (because of my way cool work schedule) or during normal grocery runs.

Big fat 
I'm buying everything I possibly can online. The less time I spend in a mall, the better.
I bought gifts for six people while sitting at my kitchen table tonight.

I believe this is the way to go. I just need to figure out what to get everyone.

I heard on the news last night, that today is supposed to be online retailers "day after Thanksgiving sales"!!! So look for the good bargains today online.
I do like shopping online.
Also did I hear right that nearly 25% of all gifts this year will be purchased online???

We got my daughter a fancy little chair from Pottery Barn via eBay.
Saved a bundle, and I didn't have to kill anyone for taking my parking spot...again.

I read that over the weekend too, apparently a lot of people shop from their work where hi-speed connections are readily available (except at certain gym's in IL  )
