Online Christmas

I bought almost all of my kid's Christmas gifts online this year. No traffic, no lines, no fights, no hassles, great prices. I bought almost everything on amazon.com. It all arrived well before the 25th and shipping mostly free. I even bought my own gifts online but from woot and newegg. I started to buy my wife's gift online but was quickly 'corrected' by my in-laws as to the appropriate type of gift to get and where to get it. This was the first year where I bought most of the kid's gifts. The wish lists and saved carts are nice tools to use for comparison shopping and you never have to get dressed or leave your house. I look forward to doing it again next year. The Holidays aren't so bad after all.
