I got DH's Christmas gift last night!!! - Celebrations

I know its extremely early, but it was a deal I couldn't pass up.
I had to go to JCPenney's to return an outift my mom got for DS. I went to look at the baby clothes to see if they had any reasonable deals. Nothing that I really liked. So I walked around some more, remembering that we had seen a jacket that DH really liked about a month ago, but we couldn't get it. I wanted to see if they still had it. They did! 60% off (if I remember right)!!! ORginally $60, on sale for $20, plus I had a 15% coupon. After tax, I paid $18.31.
Now I just have to keep him out of my trunk. I got my mileage remibursement from MCFTB a couple days ago, that is why I got it. I was actually able to buy DH something with money that I had earned.
I think we are going to set our limit at $20 per person. So $60 for all three of us for Christmas. We know we are getting DS a big teddy bear from Target. But past that I don't know. Both sides of our family are getting a picture in a frame that can hang on the fridge. We have a tight budget this year. I can get the pictures for free and the frames and everything I can get from Walmart or Micheals for a decent price. And to top it off we are moving shortly after the 1stof the year.

I'll see if I can get pictures up when I get everything made. Thank God my SIL is coming down for Christmas. I would be spending a fortune sending pictures to Canada.
