WIth Christmas upon us, I always find myself in a dilemma. I kind of like to give gifts, but I absolutely hate to shop and wrap. So, which is worse for you....wrapping or shopping? (we all know paying sucks).

Yes, I'm summer activity person trapped in a cold land who's mind runs amuck......

Loce shopping

....wrapping not so much.

Wrapping...if there's a definition of a non-value add activity, this is it. Let me go spend money on some fancy paper, cut it up, tape it to a box (making the box harder to open, which is the ultimate goal), then rip up the fancy paper that I just paid for, make a mess that needs to be cleaned up, and then put the fancy paper in the trash. All in the name of disguising something from the person that it is intended to be given to

Wrapping for sure. I pretty much buy everything online now so I got all my shopping done at work this year lol. I asked my wife for this. Think Santa will deliver?

GD and I are going shopping tomorrow for great grandma. Shipping is always fun. Mostly online this year. I get more fun out of making sure my wife doesn't see what the brown truck brings us. Or me. Lol

I’ve got it licked folks.
I’m not a shopping lover, in fact, I’d rather have a root canal than shop at the mall..

..so I now shop on my iPad and let FedEx bring the packages. Then, I nicely ask my son to wrap them ..

What a kid!
It seems like I’m doing more and more on line, and less at the malls.

Bought all my Christmas presents on Amazon on cyber monday, and checked the 'gift wrap' box, done! It even pre-populates a heartless generic gift tag so I don't have to write anything. Winning!

I’m with you as this was the first year everything was done online. I feel naughty

Christmas bags and Foo Foo tissue paper are half of them. Yeah I like wrapping. Lol

I'm with you Thunder. When I was young and broke I wrapped everything in newspaper cartoons. And believe it or not I hate being in a crowd unless I have a microphone in my hand selling something...

Well since I am the only girl on the site it's no shocker I'm the only one who loces wrapping! As a former Hallmark girl in my younger days I can wrap like a Boss! It might be my OCD but I love a perfectly wrapped box with clean edges and all the curling ribbon!

Then Mr Nauti rips the paper with all disregard of the process.

How does this make you feel? Lol
