Christmas panic

[Guest]

On a side note, don’t forget that
some people are highly sensitive to fragrances and won’t be able to use
lotions/gels/etc.

What I’ve done the past few years
for my kids homeroom teachers is send a note out at the end of November or
first of December and volunteer to collect donations and go buy a GC to the
teachers favorite place. I don’t set a dollar amount, just tell the
parents that all money will be used toward the card. Some parents send in
a couple of dollars and a few do $10 or more. This way the teacher gets
one really nice thing instead of 23 little things. I also buy a card and
let them all sign it (even the ones that didn’t donate since it’s
not their fault).

Another thing I thought of for this year
is to put money on their school lunch accounts. They aren’t allowed
to leave campus to eat so this would help out, too.

I do buy things on sale/clearance and keep
on hand for gift-giving opportunities. This just helps when it comes time
to actually buy something.

You get what you pay for! While I may not want to spend a huge amount on
a gift for a teacher, etc, I do want to get quality and something nice not just
the cheapest thing I can find. If you put a little effort into it you can
get some very nice things for not a lot of money.
