Buying Gifts All The Time?

Question

Are you one of those people who always have gifts at your house?

I am. Anytime I see something nice on sale or something cute, I get it. Like if I see cute baby outfits, rattles,baby toys, bottles, baby lotions on sale or just really cute I get them and my children don't usually need more things, so I put them downstairs in a special closet I have. Same with children's books, perfumes, lotions, nail polishes, inexpensive jewelry ($30 or so), art supplies,blankets, crayons, etc. It has saved me many times actually. Like some friends from out of town will suddenly pop in or an extra child will show up at a party or during the holidays people visit. Or if someone has a baby but not a baby shower, when we visit them, I can bring like some bottles and an outfit. Then we always have something for them.

So, just wondering does anyone else do this? Or am I weird?

Answer 1

LOL, I thought I was the only crazy person... ha ha. All you ladies have made me feel so much better about my impulse buying, When ever I find something I want to buy for these reasons my husband thinks I'm insane... Mind you I have got some small things I bought years ago still sitting in a suitcase under my bed!  But dont stress Mummy of 8 I think there alot more Closet shoppers out there than we both realised :)

Nooo, I do this! My daughters friends are pretty alike, so whenever I see something cute, I grab it. Mine are also in a closet.
