Grabbed 2 x 6pk socks that my oldest loved and put them in the Christmas bin. He's an adult now and even though I still buy him undies and socks he appreciates fancy ones he likes at Christmas ( I bought fancy name boxers at 70% off last year and filled and wrapped a box at Christmas and he loved it. His brother told me he would like that too lol. I have already started buying some as I see them.)
I put 75 a month into Christmas savings plus try the 52 week savings challenge. Its not going well this year

I knit my mom a shawl that she can wrap around herself when watching tv. Matches her tv room colours so she can drape over her love seat when not using. Partway through a shawl/ scarf for one niece, then will do one for another niece.

US greeting cards will get the tariff treatment on July 1. Suggest if you need cards for gifts, take advantage of Rexall's Hallmark promotion in the current flyer.
Another small gift for my mom. Found a bridge set with 2 decks of cards and score sheets. Nicely boxed up. She plays bridge every week
My Christmas savings this year so far are $0. I have been able to put $ away in past years. Not this one. I have been using our gift fund when I see something. Our property tax payments end earlier this year. I will use that money on the months with no payments to put into Christmas fund. This will fall Oct/Nov. so timing is a little later than I like, but just in time.Quote:
