And I didn't do too bad if I must say so. I allotted $100 for Christmas shopping and I only spent $85. I however went all over hades and back looking for the gifts since I had particular ones already picked out. I went to the PX and got the Scooby 2 movie for both boys, and drawing paper, colored pencils, wrapping paper, and tape. Then I went to the PXtra but couldn't find anything there. My next stop was Toys R Us. I got the Fisher Price Geo Tracks for my youngest and some personalized pencils to go with my oldest's gift. (Oh I was getting him drawing supplies cause he loves to draw.) They didn't have a How to Draw book or the Spongebob game for PS2 that they had just a few weeks ago. I went to Target and nothing there. I finally went to the mall. I went into the game shop and thought I wasn't going to find the Spongebob game but they did have it. The thing is, it has been out for over a year so not like its a new thing that everyone wants. It was aggravating. Then I went to Borders and found a How to Draw Anime book. Finally I was done. And since I had $15 left over, I stopped at Arby's on the way home and got me and Dom something to eat. He was complaining the whole time that he was hungry. I figured, Alan got to go see A Christmas Carol musical today with school, I could treat Dom. I have a few dollars left over and am happy with how it went, except for going all over looking for that stuff. lol
