I gotta go out today to get some Christmas cookie tins so I can send cookies to work with my husband for him and his coworkers. I don't want to go out because I am not feeling the greatest but Christmas doesn't let you have sick days! Oh no it doesn't!

Is dollartree like dollarama?

My husband wouldn't take me there because he was raised with a silver spoon in his mouth and refuses to go to "such places" but I love them! Anyways today I am MAKING him take me to dollartree and he is more than welcome to sit alone in the car freezing while I am toasty warm inside browsing the aisles.

Yay! The first time I seen a dollar tree was last week and I looked it up and it looks exactly like dollarama! And hello, cookie tins for a dollar!? Plus little Christmas decorations, you just can't go wrong. The cheapest tins I found so far were at Wegmans and they were 2.99 (on sale)... they're tins that I will never get back, I am not spending 3.00

Gah I am watching this show on HGTV where they are showing 25 great holiday ideas and a lot of these crafts and ideas are just HORRID!

[Marilyn. 340]

the first year we got our tree I spent about 30 bucks or more on Christmas decorations and ornaments at the dollar tree...

[Sprailenes 47]

Well we just got back from the dollar tree. I got some cookie tins.

Husband walked in with me and then him and my son decided to go wait outside. Whatever, I got some nice tins. Cheaper than I've seen anywhere else too!

11 more days!

Hi everyone! I'm not feeling very Christmasy. No tree, no decorations. Maybe with kids it will be different.

Christmas is my favorite holiday but there's no one here to celebrate with and my husband's traveling on business. It's so nice to see the pix in this thread!

Have a good Sunday!

[Marilyn. 340]

yeah something is missing here for me too.... I have the tree up and some presents bought but I am still not really in the Christmas spirit...

[Sprailenes 47]

A lot of people have been saying that this year actually. Perhaps its the economy... I dunno.

[Marilyn. 340]

the thing is we have more money then we have had the past couple of Christmases..

I think I just miss my family.. I haven't spent Christmas with them in a few years... I get to spend Christmas with my brother and his wife and my nephew this year though .. at least that is something... I really miss my mom and dad though.. I just need a hug or two from them

plus the fact that I have a had a couple of bad things happen around Christmas.. I don't think that helps either ..
