Christmas, what is worst: buying presents or wrapping presents?

Question

I started wrapping today, I hate it

Answer 1

I am with you on that. That is why this year, I decided not to wrap a thing. I brought gift cards, and candy that is already wrapped. Bed and Body works, stuff already together.

That is some stress, that I did not need.

Happy Holidays.

Answer 2

Buying presents is actually fun. As long as you dont waste until last minute and have to stand in four hour lines! I love going shopping for my family. But I do it in like November to advoid those lines!
I hate wrapping! It always looks so bad =( Im really thinking about buying big bags to put my presents in. lol. Oh well...i guess i will stick with the wrapping it shows i took time,
Hope I was able to help, and answer your question. Happy Holidays. =)

Answer 3

My wrapping is all done (my husband still has some things to wrap, though) but for me the 'worst' is the 'putting up' of the decorations, and taking them down and putting them away again. Guess what I'm doing now? Have a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!

Answer 4

I'm a guy, so how good do you think i am at wrapping, i hate it, i may as well just put it in a bag and give it to them, it would look better, the worst is the wrapping for me.

Answer 5

I think buying is worst, you have to make a decision on what to buy for the person. Wrapping, for me, I just take what choices I have and wrap.

Answer 6

I don't mind buying presents, but I really hate fighting with rude people in crowded stores, and I hate wrapping. That's why I buy everything online and have amazon pack the gifts for me.

Answer 7

I love both! lol
I suck at wrapping, but it's still fun. Don't sweat it. I'd rather get a crappy wrapping job anyway, that way it won't make me feel bad when I rip it to shreds :P
Just play some great music you love and make sure you have everything you need handy: wrapping paper, tape, bags, tissue paper, tags, pen, etc. Or, have a wrapping get together and do it with friends so that it's funner! :)

Merry Christmas!

With gift wrapping you can do it in the comfort of your own home..You casn also just buy gift boxes and bags with some nice tissue paper throw it all in and tape the sides and consider it done.Then sit back with a hot cup od cocoa and marshmello's and all is right with your world.
Versus being @ any store at the moment where everything is just about picked clean.Old women with canes riding around in Walmart wheelchairs running you over to get to the last gift of something or better yet caning you and running you over.Although I must admit it is rather amusing to watch them do it to someone other than me lol.But still the old broads are rather plucky with these last few shopping days left.And then there are the teens bumping you and screaming at the top of their lungs for some other teen half way across the store.Or even better the men and women who have been out ALL day and are holding onto the last vestiges of sanity.And the only way to keep in control without going "all out postal" is to push and shove and then make snarky comments to other shoppers....And lets not forget the sales people who have been working all day long double shifts or just getting snaked into working 1 hour more.Who if they have to smile 1 more dern time to 1 more dern person they too are going to go "all out postal".And with them you never know what its gonna be a somber face,throwing your stuff into a bag to get you the heck outta there or worse yet embarrassing you over the intercom as they loudly and clearly ask the associate in the women's hygiene dept. to let them know the price of the one single thing for yourself in the cart,that you just didn't want shared with everyone in the store...Takes a deep breath and whispers you know she picked no not the tampons nor pads but the KY that heats up cause you had plans to relax tonight with or without hubby...
By far I would take the gift wrapping lol...Yep Yep I would indeed....

Happy Holidays & Good Cheer,
M.G

Answer 9

Wrapping. I love the hustle and bustle and people and all the mushy stuff with Christmas shopping.
However, I light Hannukah candles instead of putting up a tree.

But I love the crowds in the stores and shopping, especially for my grandson.

Often I have the store do the wrapping for me if the price is right.

Answer 10

Wrapping if it is not a box. Floppy bags or airline neck pillows are horrible to wrap, they just squirm all over and look terrible. You spend money on all components of a present so it should be wrapped nice and if it is not a box, it gets hard for me.
