BF>>>> On the radio and every person I listen to say that they
are not going
 BF>>>> to buy so much this year and still the total amount
spent on gifts at
 BF>>>> x-mas is up by 5 to 10 % every year. Wonder who is
buying everything?

 bk>  They have all these sales to push the stats up. I don't think
 bk>  Christmas trade has been all that good recently.

As I said, here it's up at least 5% every year.

 RN>>> The only thing that is cheap is the talk.  It's just like
the weather --
 RN>>> everybody talks abut it, but nobody does anything about it.  (-:

 bk>  I do something about it. If it's bad I go back to bed.

Even on a normal working day?

 bk>  OTOH, I'm on vacation, until Tuesday...

Come back in late Januari.......

 BF>> That's troo and we don't give the grandkids very much, they have most of
 BF>> it already and it's better to give when they need it instead of giving
 BF>> just because it's x-mas and why buy it here when it's 10% of the price in
 BF>> Thailand.

 bk>  True.

We bring stuff home for next year......
