What is everyone getting teachers, bus drivers, etc.? Amazon gift card? I usually just do their favorite candy and a card from the kids. Maybe hot chocolate bombs this year. But we're cheap. Lol. And with dance teachers, we have like 8 to buy for.

What is everyone getting teachers, bus drivers, etc.? Amazon gift card? We had a chance to go to Trader Joe's because of visiting my brother, and the nearest one is 2ish hours from here (so stuff from there - 5$ nicely wrapped box of chocolates - is a more legit gift than it would be if there were one right in town), so we got a bunch of boxes of chocolates there for teachers. May supplement with Dunkin gift card (way way too popular here) for some and bus drivers will probably just be Dunkin gift card. Dd also got inspired and made a really nice card for her teacher (based on teacher's known likes of dinosaurs and cats); I'm hoping inspiration will strike her again for a few more for others but who knows...

It's almost too late (ends tonight) but target gift cards are 10% off with circle (teacher gifts?)
There's a good deal on toys too - 10 off 50 or 25 off 100. Excludes lego and some other brands. Though for lego there's a different deal on 50 if certain sets ... I think the you one is all week. Maybe?

I just bought a second thing for DD2's doll's stocking (yes, I realize I'm insane here) because I was telling my mom about something DD1 wanted for HER doll but that I couldn't find, so I'd gone ahead and bought other things, but then my mom picked it up for me. So I had to get something else to make it even because the new thing cost more than the old things (and is an accessory kit rather than the outfits I had bought before, so the disparity would have been noticeable even if I'd just subbed one out.
Anyways, I was supposed to be done with my holiday shopping, but apparently I've decided to go a little more overboard.

I bought DS's big stuffed puppy a Christmas gift so you are not alone in the insanity... I hope DS can go to school on Monday so I can wrap everything. otherwise I'll be up all night doing it...

I’m trying to get everything wrapped. I was supposed to be working from home this week. I’ve been sending ds3 to school for about 3 hours so I can get to mtgs and appointments and then picking him up before the pain killers wear off completely and his hand looks like a sausage. We aren’t sleeping but when he has the pain meds he is alright.
