I worked retail for years. The holidays were nightmares. I have no desire to go to the store and this Christmas everyone gets 2 presents. One must be under $15.00 and wrapped in blue paper. I need to purchase very smart but selectively and prefer to come up with my own ideas from the heart rather than be lured by the item because it's such a good deal. When I worked retail I did get amazing deals and bought so much stuff for the holidays. I worked at a higher end department store and between and and Toys R Us, I could do al my shopping for everyone. But I had to get out of retail years ago due to social phobia.
