Poll question: How many gifts are left on your list?
I have to go get three more once I get paid.

1. I'm still thinking.
Almost certainly 7+ though - as gifts bought thus far equals diddy-squat.

2. Two.
A certain something for my husband that I can't mention right now in case he's reading here, and a CD for my in-laws.

More if you count odds and ends and candies for the stockings.

3. Five, I think. I always go over.
I'm a guy. So Clueless, of course, but I try. Getting a new roaster for my girlfriend! Cool, eh?

5. I only have a few more
Can I just say right now that online shopping is just the best? I have done it all online, and I have saved so much time! I may venture out for a short day of shopping next week to finish, but the online thing is pretty sweet! I have to travel for the holidays, so I had my gifts shipped there where I will wrap them when I arrive! No transporting, ripped paper, nothing! :woohoo:

6. I'm not really into online shopping
I've tried to make stuff mostly. My new favorite thing ever is tha Automated Postal Center at the post office. I love shipping stuff without standing in line. :D

7. Well, I guess I'm lucky there
The post office I frequent is in a very small town. I don't have to wait in line (sorry) and the staff are very friendly and helpful (sorry). If I find one of those things, I will try it out! :hi:

8. Ah, I live in a area with a lot of retail
so this time of year our local post office is very busy as people stop to ship thier purchases. The machine is a total freaking lifesaver. When I have to ship something at the counter (like stuff to an APO addy that needs a customs form) I go to a smaller office that's a bit father away.

9. That's what I do most of the time.
They have sure gotten to know me in the past 6 months, lol! They even send spare boxes and forms with me so that I have them ready to go when I come in. I usually send a care package a week. They have helped me so much!
