Neat site!

As soon as Remembrance Day is over on Nov 11, I'll be in the storage room, getting out the Christmas Decorations.

Christmas, cant afford it. I prefer to start christmas later, and for shorter period of time.

Even without a printer, you can still read some of the stories of people who went with a "buy nothing" Christmas. If you can't print some of the coupons you can make some when you see some of the ideas. You can read the "alternatives" that people suggest to expensive gifts. You can read some of the media reports. You can look at some of the nice pictures and write ups in the "buy nothing" catalogue.

I do plan to "buy something" this year, but I still had a great time looking at this website and getting ideas for creative expressions of love.

As an aside, I just spent the last hour surfing on line for quotations for the Advent Calendar for my daughter. What fun! And it cost me nothing! I am getting so excited, just thinking of my daughter opening up a drawer and reading the quotation for each day of December.

Most of my "Christmas gift to me" is bought and paid for. I'm planning to work Thanksgiving to pay for most of the rest of my Christmas gifting. :q)
