Almost done with the shopping! I only have a couple of things left to buy and I'm very happy with what we've bought so far. I also have to pick up a few more grocery items for our Christmas feast - a couple of pies and maybe some stuffing or potatoes. Giant Eagle has been soooooo crazy crowded lately I'm putting off going to the store as long as possible! Last week Giant Eagle charged my debit card twice for my groceries - apparently it wasn't just me but all customers who bought between 4-6 pm Friday. Luckily I only spent $50 that trip - it easily could've been two or three times that! They finally credited my account yesterday (after 2 calls to corporate and a dispute filed with the bank). Not the sort of thing we need this time of year when every dollar counts!
Tomorrow my sisters in law are coming down to visit. Monday we go to my parent's house for a White Elephant exchange. I've never participated in one before but I think I have the perfect gift - a $10 gift card to a movie theater that my husband and I have had for 4 years. We checked - it still carries a $10 balance. And then on Tuesday the kids will open their gifts - I can't wait to see their faces when they see what Santa has brought! I keep teasing my 5 year old that Santa is bringing him potatoes...
