So far, I've only bought two people's presents...

Got about another 10 to buy for.

Anyone else in the same situation? smileys/smiley17.gif

Anyone care to share some random gift ideas smileys/smiley2.gif

Im gong to finish work about 3pm today to head into town, but the annual drink with old colleagues has to come before the shopping. smileys/smiley17.gif Hopefully the shops will be open late. smileys/zainy.gif

Dearie me guys! smileys/smiley17.gif

Like oz i've been ready for about a month... Mind you i have done most of my bf's shopping too!

Jewellery boxes are great for women (i should know, i am one!) - even if they've got one, buy them a travel one!!
Failing that, you can buy facial treatments etc. online from clarins, and just print off the confirmation to give on xmas day - that's last minute for you!

As for guys...well i'll leave that to the experts smileys/smiley2.gif

Good luck, you crazy last-minute people!

I just got back from town I was going to buy my mum a couple of extra bits to go with her main pressies but when i got to the shop it had just that minute shut grrrrrr, oh well at least she has got something smileys/happy.gif

slightly off topic but on the the way home from walking the dogs realised one of my headlights was out grr why does everything happen at once? just hoping it is a loose connection as that has happened before
