Just When I Think I’m Done With My Shopping…

December 11th, 2008

I’m on the ball this year.

I am.

Everything is bought.  Most of it is wrapped.  All of the packages are mailed.

And I have 13 days until Christmas.

But then?

Yeah.

MC Blogger ButtonI get wind of a new Holiday Gift Guide that’s hosted by Mom Central and I’ve now got even more ideas than I started with and so the Christmas Crazy sets in.

You know the Christmas Crazy…picking up things here and there that you see long after you’re done shopping and long after you’ve reached the budget that you set for yourself this year and have blown past… again.

Mom Central has outdone themselves with their Gift Guide and you can find gifts for every one on your list, including your pets.

Do you buy for your pets?  We do.  Casey is getting two cat toys (that she won’t play with) and Rhoda is getting two dog bones (that she won’t chew on) but we buy them never the less, because the kids would be devastated if Santa forgot the animals.  They even have their own stockings hanging by the chimney door with care.

No matter who is on your list, you’ll find something for them listed within the pages of the 2008 Mom Central Holiday Gift Guide.

What’s more?

They’ve got giveaways.  Oh yes they do!  One each day and they’ve got them going on through the 18th of December, so that’s still six more days!

To be eligible to win the daily prizes, you must register on Mom Central (you’ve done this already, haven’t you?), log-in, and leave a comment on the post. And, if you tweet or email friends about the giveaway, you can earn another entry! (Come on!  You know you’re tweeting and emailing all day long anyway… might as well pass it along!) In order to earn the entry, you simply go back to the Mom Central Review blog and leave a second comment letting them know.

Not hard at all.

After you’ve perused all the great gifts that they have listed, and after you’ve spent even more money that you didn’t have on something that you just HAD to have, then take a minute and sign up for the Mom Central Testing Panel.

At least that way you can be heard after testing things, for free.

Trust me, if you’re anything like me, free is going to look mighty good after the next few weeks and the effects of Christmas Crazy start occurring.

Now go.  Shop.  Be Merry.

and enter giveaways.

Until next time..
