Internet Shopping at its finest

Internet Shopping! Gotta love it!
I just spent most of the evening shopping online. Why you ask? Because I LOATHE real shopping. I loathe the pushy people, the stupid Christmas music, the kids crying and yelling, pretty much everything having to do with it. Trust me, you dont want to talk to me if you found out I had been "real" shopping. I am a grouch ass. 
If I go with Girl friends, yes I am the "man" shopper. I either sit and await their hours of shopping for deals outside the store or am basically whining or trying to find a TV store with a show on Ill watch. Laugh all ya want, but I am a more go in, get it, leave gal. You dont browse around you ask? I do, on the internet first. Then I go in, ask where it is, get it and get the hell outta there!
I went to Amazon.com today and Ebay.com,Foodtv.com and Huskervideo.com. I am almost done all in about 3 hours worth of "browsing" online. Bad part is I finally added up what I spent! Holy cow. I am already like $650 in and not done yet! Close though! I would say I am 4/5 done on the item part but about $300 away from the final destination. Sigh, so much for my budget! . But I shouldnt complain I suppose.It is just hard to drop that kind of cash on a Holiday I dont even decorate for. Yeah yeah, gasp all ya want, and call me scrooge but I dont. Then the whole paying for "stuff" for family I barely talk too especially when I dont really do much for myself. BUT my NY resolution is to change that! Dunno what I will get myself, but something I can find online Im sure! 
You might be shaking your head too asking why do that when I probably dropped $200 on shipping. Well 1 I spent a total of $27.95 on shipping as amazon.com was where I did most of my purchasing and it was all FREE! *I love FREE shit* But I would rather pay $3.95 per item in shipping and be happy and not grouchy when I get done, or cold, or have to be in the ice storm thing we have going on this evening.
I just heard Hyvee is doing delivery, and dont even NOT think for a second I havent seriously considered it! lol
I think my favorite thing about the online shopping is I can actually get people what they want cuz I can find it easier. If I have to search for anything in a store, you can forget about it.Patience is NOT my middle name by any means.
One of my favorite things I bought today was, I got my brother a collector item of Coach Osbornes "Career Plaque" signed and some other cool Husker stuff.
My mom was the FoodTV one. I pretty much got all her stuff there. Her new retirement thing is too "cook" like they do on TV. lol I guess its good to have goals.
Dad is getting a rifle for hunting. No I didnt purchase that online, that is a seperate gift that I am "chipping in" for. Doesnt chipping in mean you pay a equal part? Huh, funny I got stuck with $150 and it is a $300 gun. Oh well, call me a sucker or a daddy's girl!
Of course, there is always the Guitar Hero Legends of Rock for the kid. Ya, I am pretty stoked for him to open it. So excited infact I had it shipped to my mothers so I didnt play with it while he was at school! Screw delayed Gradification! If I can get it NOW Ill do it! lol But realizing this, I did the right thing for all involved. Sigh, sucks to be "good" sometimes. But I guess I have to act like a mom sometimes huh? *Stomps foot* 
Well thats all I have to blog about today. My online shopping spree, the relief I am about done and SO much closer to my 3 week break from motherhood. Ya, ok if ya know me you had to KNOW that was coming! I do love my FREE things and my FREE time from being a mom is one of them! So much to do! and no big mouths to tell my family! muuhhaaaaa Big Mouths=Teenagers who try and hold things over your head by threatening to tell "G'ma and G'pa" sigh
Happy shopping!
