The 3-rolls of Tom Smith wrapping paper were on sale for $4.99 on Boxing Day at Shoppers-sort of wished to buy more but still glad I bought the rolls at full retail, as the store does not bring in as much stock as in the past. And I did find another brand of gift tags tucked around the side wall by the clearance section near post office but they were still at full retail before Christmas. My local store never brought in the matching TS tags that I found at a second store.

I plan to see what's at Shoppers Lime Ridge mall for Xmas clearance, as I have a sale item to find at the Bay (don't want to miss the deal).

Hit the mother load of Christmas clearance at target...90% off! Wrap, bows, gift bags, ornaments tissue paper, boxes, etc. Spent $32 saved $285! Then went to Bombay and got 75% off ornaments for nieces for next Christmas! And at chapters brought Christmas crackers for next year $6.75 reg $22. At pier one I bought 3 snowmen mugs for $3 to go with my nieces ornaments. One niece was admiring them before Christmas. Can’t remember reg price but 75% off. Bought tape at loblaws for $1.94 for 3 pack.

December I put $100 in Christmas 2018 account. I transfer another $100 on Monday.

I need to pack up the stuff I have bought for 2018 and put in a Rubbermaid bin and keep a tally. Will get to it this weekend (maybe tonight)

I picked up a beautiful Christmas owl and a snowman in an airplane both 50% off for my sister's next year Christmas. I think with 12 rolls or wrapping paper and a bag of bows we will be ok for Christmas next year in that respect.

I took my change to the bank and deposited 40 dollars into our Christmas account this afternoon.

I look year round on the gap/old navy or the bay web sites for clearance items -today got some socks for the grandkids and of course free shipping

Just an observation, but how about starting a thread for "Christmas 2018"?

3 pairs of fancy American Eagle Boxers for youngest DS. ( I bought a bunch for his brother last year and they both really liked the idea lol so of course I will do it again. I guess as you get older you really do appreciate underwear lol) (I would never pay $20+ for these- heck I won't even pay $5 plus) So I watch for the 70% off clearance and pick them up as I see them. A good start!

JasperandChar just needs to change the date to 2018 as she has in years past.

Since there is so much black and white featuring in spring collections now, I am curious how much of it will wind up in holiday retail later in the year. Ikea has a new goth/Hollywood collection that is all about black white and red. The promotional trailers are interesting. I like some of the boxes but I think the shopping bags that are Be You will move very quickly.

I need to stock up on 3M Magic Transparent tape!

I need to put my 2018 gifts in a Rubbermaid bin. I will do so tonight! Then it will help with the cleaning of the master closet which is on my list of things to get at!
