Christmas Shopping

An Audience Participation Special.....

I love to shop. In fact, I'm half done with Christmas shopping already. However, I'm kinda getting bored with the same ol' same ol'. Even on line.

So, where do you look for that perfect gift, online or off? What little, out of the way retailer ( or e-tailer) is your go-to place?

Hmmm... depends on the person, but I'd say Gael Song, either online or catalog. Past Times, the same.

Since I am shopping for Halloween decorations, I find ebay or amazon the safest places to buy them. Yes, I am buying Halloween decorations for christmas gifts.

Martha's Bookstore down on Balboa Island. Mostly cause I know the owners, and like to support them.

EBay.... LLBean

Crap, I even went to Spencer's gifts at the mall a couple of weeks ago for some gag gifts. I haven't set foot in there in decades!

Reminded of a few more by looking at catalogs here:
(all online too, of course)

Vermont Country Store

The Red Envelope -- interesting, very nice quality gifts.

Stonewall Kitchen (jams, preserves, cool kitchen stuff and the best pancake/waffle mix I've ever had!)
