Quote from: "Annie"Oh I was the biggest culprit with buying the chocolates. I would buy a couple boxes to give as gifts but I ended up eating most of it having to go buy more lol

I bought almost $200 of Ferrero Roche from Amazon for gifts, and actually ate someones that didn't show up  ac_unsure

That is a lot of chocolates Blue.

I have a lot of people to buy for, 24 sometimes with family, and friends.

I usually buy a gift like something they can use, but this year it was chocolates.

Next one will be less, it's just a bit much anymore, I have kids, and dogs that need goodies. :)

I gave out gifts to 48 people, so I can understand Blue.

I have to cut back, i spend way more than most people here.

I have a new niece, a nephew, and his brother, and would like to get back into donating so some needy families.

I usually give to a shelter each year also which I neglected to do this year.

Christmas isn't Christmas anymore, just a pain, i want it better next time.

I like to give gifts to people I know would not otherwise receive them..



There are a lot of lonely people in the world.

I usually buy angels from the angel trees, they are a bit expensive anymore though, but feed two families for Christmas.

I think it's the least I could do to help. I know the animals appreciate some help also, they are voiceless in our world.

I am sorry Blue, I do not understand this?

It's a charity thing, you can buy a cutout of an angel with a child's name on it from several places here like Krogers, Lowe's, some banks.

They then give a family a Christmas meal, turkey, and all the trimmings. I usually give a kids gift also at a few of the stores when out.

We have a children's cancer center here, i would like to do something for them one year.

I rather help somehow going around the regular way of a middle man.

If I could I would donate the time like you.

It goes directly to children in need..



I avoid charities if at all possible that have a paid staff.

Small, local charities are best.

Yeah, or with animals donating stuff the charity needs is good.

they need cleaning supplies always, and food.

I used to like donating to food banks, but then I found out some people that use them do not need them.
