Baby gator tails.... You'd have to sacrifice the balls at that age, but the little tails should be the right size... |

| I'm doing OK. I just have one or two (depending on size) things to get yet. If I can find what I'm looking for, it will be one. If not, Probably 2!
The budget is the hard part, this is so much fun, I'm sort of going over budget! |

| I need one more thing. It should be the easiest to get, but it seems to be like pulling front teeth! It'd help if I didn't forget to look when I was out and about? LOL!
I'm also hoping to swap out one gift for another after my trip to Kansas next week. If VA doesn't have this one thing, I'm hoping Kansas does. I'm going to spend Black Friday in Topeka searching for one goofy gift among all those crazy shoppers! |

I know exactly what I am getting my buddy, or I guess the better saying is I know where, I just need to go get the shopping done. I am hoping they will have a Black Friday deal going on because I know for a fact I would go over budget on what I want to get!!!

Location: Qld Australia | I made another thread and then saw this one, oops.
I have just ordered my main pressie for my buddy. I just have to wait for it to be in stock next week and then the company will ship it out. I found my buddy hard to buy for as they post lots but not with any info that would assist me buying a 'serious' gift. I could get ok gifts easy enough but wanted something just right. What I have ordered I know some people like and others don't . . . oh the drama .
Well it is done now ha, ha. I just have some fillers I have to find time to buy and then put a second box in the post. Have I mentioned that I LOVE Christmas?
I can't wait to start seeing some of the gifts!!! |
