I asked for movies, a hammock, and headphones.

This year I tried something new--shopping on Amazon. I normally go hunting throughout the whole year to grab some unique things, but this year I had some major roadblocks so that didn't happen. And I accidentally signed up for a free trial of Prime.

I thought Amazon shopping would be more difficult or less personal than it actually was--I found a lot of heartfelt gifts while sitting on my butt!

I'll share a couple things...so for my mom...I work at a pet store and they had slipper socks with border collies on it and a border collie coffee mug, then I went on Amazon and bought a border collie shirt and pj bottoms and a makeup bag with border collies on it...all that will go in one bag.

I did go out to Hot Topic and bought lots of shirts for my mom with my Hot Cash and then a couple weeks later I got two freebie Hot Cash cards so I bought shirts for my dad...this year I got them lots of shirts.

And this year my brother and his wife are in Japan, so I had to be very careful what I sent cost wise...but my brother said don't buy him anything, get everything for his dog...so at the pet store I bought a ton of toys for his little dog...my brother was so happy, he sent me a video of his dog all proud of his new toy...he said he's saving the rest of the toys for Christmas.
