I don't buy a lot of people presents so I'm done.

Ditto, going to Costco to pick up something for a bowling party tonight and will get something for my neighbor/best friend and I'm done. Will get some extras so I don't have to grocery shop until after Christmas. I hate holiday shopping crowds.

My wife loved to shop for personal gifts, but in our forty-four years of marriage, we never bought each other gifts. This year I'm on my own. My brothers and their wives are getting a gift box of Grand Marnier and my ten grand nieces and nephews are getting un-circulated 2017 silver dollars.

Done.

I bought a few Silver Eagles myself and will be giving them out. And I bought a good saddle knife for my girlfriends daughter. And lastly I bought a gag gift for a white elephant Christmas exchange. It is a box of tricks for a 10-year old and the exchange is all adults.

A few little things for my wife and I but I told her to book a week long wildlife painting workshop in Colorado next year. She really wanted to go. So she's happy.

I am trying to buy from local stores where the owners live in our community. These stores employ local people who live in our community and in turn spend their monies locally. The big box stores and Amazon don’t really care about mine or your community, they are here for profit.
