When you go Christmas shopping. . .

Do you end up with a whole bunch of stuff for yourself too ?

I keep buying a gift for someone and buying myself the same EXACT gift b/c I like it so much

I didn't buy the same exact gifts for myself, but I did manage to purchase 3 formal dresses for a total of $90.

No more formal shopping for a while

Re: When you go Christmas shopping. . .

I make a solemn promise every December 1st that I will not buy myself a single thing, because in the past, I have bought myself gifts that my mom or sister have already bought me!!!
