christmas shopping list

we started late but we're 90% done with our christmas shopping. since we 're a single income family right now, we have to set a budget and make sure we don't go over that amount. and we're pretty much happy with the gifts we bought for the girls and the pamangkins. although we did some impulsive buying just to get it over and done with, most of these items have been returned already after realizing that it won't be the perfect gift.

we're practically in the mall every night since we need to pick up the girls from work (2 of D's daughters work at the mall) and believe me we've checked out almost all the stores trying to find the gift that suits the recipient's personality. the only consolation we get from it is burning calories from too much walking. =)

anyhoo, bath and body works offers the best deals of stocking stuffers. this is where i got some gifts to be given to my 3 SILs and my white elephant gift for this saturday's christmas party. i've challenged my co-kulasas to find gifts that will not go over $10 and man...bbw has a lot to choose from. this is what i got and i will be giving this in a set.





i'm just thankful that dell's daughters, sisters and the rest of our friends are low maintenance. =)
