Christmas Presents

Do you ever go around prowling your house looking for christmas presents or trying to find out what you parents got you. And if you did have you got caught?
I Have on all accounts ( not pretty

 

I got the Band Of Brothers Special Edition. Thats all I wanted We spend like, 50$ or something. You guys spend millions on Christmas

 

My parents usually hide our gifts in the trunk of their car so I usually find them by accident when I go to change a CD (since the CD changer's in the trunk). They haven't hid anything in there this year though but that might be because I'm actually driving now. I've only gotten caught one time but it was funny because the gift wasn't even mine to begin with (it was for my parents' friends' kids) but they gave me the gift since I found it which I thought was hilarious.

 

haha yeah... i never got caught tho...until my brother told on me..=c(

 

Personaly i've never had the urge to hunt around my house for cirmbo presents lol. It ruins the whole christmas thing for me if i know exactly what i'm getting

 

I know what I'm getting anyway, I just like unwrapping things and watching my dogs go crazy with the paper.

+ christmas = family time for me, not an excuse to get presents I wouldnt care if I didn't get presents at christmas, as long as I got to spend time with my family.

 

I used to all the time... never got caught though. And me and my brother used to tell eachother what they were getting. same with birthdays. oh the advantages of having a brother

 

me and my brother used to help wrap presents...it was this big tradition thing where we would lock ourselves in his room with miles of wrapping paper and rolls of tape and permanent markers (for everyone's names, instead of tags-we have a big family) and my mom would give us presents and we would wrap them.

every year it ended up that we wrapped some of our own presents and she was lying about whose it was. it was really amusing actually. makes me want to go make peace with them this year so i can do that again. but it won't happen...

 

Wow now i can rest easy. Well i just got caught but all i found was clothes for my lil bro, the must of hid them in our tralier lol. I know i allrdy getting what i want because my mom kepy dropping hints about it by accident. I sneaky

 

*moved because it doesn't need to be in Serious Chat*


I always snoop for my Christmas presents. My parents usually hide them in their closet or under the bed. Those are like the most obvious places too. They should really look into better hiding places.

 

My parents once hid them under the kitchen sink , but i always look down there to through my trash awya . wierd isnt it?

 

Nah, I don't even bother because I don't really care.

The only time when I go searching around the house, is usually when my laptop or computer is taken away.

 

They hid it under the fucking STOVE


That's a good spot...


a new comp, that'd be nice

 

The one time I tried unwrapping part of a present, my sister saw and told my mom. It was a Playstion in 1997. How could I not look to see if I got it or not? That was the last time I did any snooping.

 

My mom does everything in her room, wrapping, hiding, you name it. Which is weird knowing that she leaves the door open when i'm all alone every day

 

Man, all these presents take away from the Christmas spirit. Know what? I think this would be a great idea if everybody in the first world caught on. So much fucking money goes to buying present and Christmas decorations, when people living in the third world are totally neglected.

I hope everybody who reads this considers it and tries to start a trend.

When buying someone any present, figure out how much half/25% (any percentage would be great anyway) the present costs, and donate that amount of money to charity.

Know what else would make a HUGE difference? If nobody bought wrapping paper and donated what they would have spent on wrapping paper to charity. People don't really give a shit about how something has been wrapped,just wrap it in newspaper. It's scary when you read statistics about how much people spend on wrapping paper.

 

i used to do that when i was a kid

but now i dont associate xmas with presents because its kinda shallow... i write really long letters to everyone i know/love about the year and my appreciation and whatnot..

also i hate having that fake reaction when opening presents..

 

I've only ever snooped around the house once and that was 2 years ago because I was going to get my presents late and I really really really wanted to know what I was getting

 

My parents are unoriginal, they get the presents when we get the tree, and just put the presents under the tree I've never really wanted to open them before Christmas morning, but more often than not, I'll look at the cards.
