Do you do stocking stuffers?? I was doing last minute Christmas shopping today, mainly stocking stuffers. If you want to share some ideas, suggestions...would love to hear some of yours. I had a coupon for Borders. They were swamped, but very efficient with their checkout. Even tho there was a looong line of customers, the wait was surprisingly short.
Our family's favorite Christmas movie is the Christmas Story with Ralphie, the Red Rider B-B gun, the leg lamp delivered in the Fragile box, etc. Last year I was lucky enough to buy a leg lamp at Hope Ministries Thrift Store. My friend, Tina, does displays at Denny's Gift Den. She borrowed the leg lamp to display with the Dept. 56 village pieces from Christmas Story. She did a very innovative display. She found a 50's era T.V. set, with the convex glass, wood case - took the insides out and used it for a display for the village pieces. The picture above is of the display - not the best picture, you'll have to go to Denny's to see and appreciate the real thing.
Office Max had a few good stuffers for me. Learning Post is a favorite stop. I could browse there for hours. Naturally I found some good small items there.
If you like a bit of chocolate for someone special or other imported grocery items, try European Flavors at the intersection of 73rd and University (Sam's Club neighborhood). The owners are originally from Russia. They are very helpful and knowledgeable about their inventory. If you're not sure about an item, they are happy to offer a sample. Good sales people!
So that was a rambling post, but hope you're finding everything you need for a Merry Christmas. And I hope you know that "everything you need" is Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior. And everything you need for real estate is the Eisenlauer Team. Call Bill 770-2455 or Bob 979-2883. Merry Christmas!
