Weird Christmas gifts I bought today....what do you think?

what a cool idea! i would love these pressies!!

Not weird at all! My cousin also goes crazy over Halloween. Last year we bought her some clearance Halloween decor from Walgreens as part of her Christmas gift. She absolutely loved them. I am sure your son and his fiance will love them. My partner bought the temporary tatoos CVS had for $3.99 before Halloween. She got them for .99 each, bought 5 packs and we are going to give them out to the trick or treaters next year, along with candy. FUN FUN FUN! PEACE

I think your son and fiance will get a real kick of those gifts. Since Halloween is their favorite holiday I think they'll really appreciate them :)

on a strictly personal level I always think it's kind of crap when someone, well wait... since I'm making this strictly personal, I'll tell you the story from my perspective. My brother and I used to be real close...that is until he married an idiot. Anyway, so at first they had one son and my brother was the stay at home dad while she worked at Barnes and Noble. For christmas it was pretty much inevitable I'd get a DVD and both my parents would get a book from them. This was because at barnes and noble she not only got a staff discount but there's a week around christmas time that staff get an even bigger discount. So of course my dvd and parents books were bought from her job only because they could get it for real cheap. I think that's crappy. Buying something for people just cause you can get it real cheap at your job... and not because it's something they really wanted. Now that's not to say what I think YOU did was really crappy, if they really really love Halloween stuff than I think you made an excellent choice. But on a personal level I'd probably just give it to them as a nice gift for no reason rather than christmas, BUT that's just me. I'm really weird about the whole christmas gift thing.

That is a great idea to give a new couple some holiday decos for a gift. I guarantee that they will appreciate them come halloween next year! I know I would have!

lol..we must come from the same weird cut. As presents go it has got to beat socks or some other necessary clothing item. I think Christmas is as appropriate time for giving something no matter what the price that demands thought on the part of the giver and personally I don't think cheap was your idea. The cost of Christmas is so overdone, that like you if I can save a few bucks no matter where the gift comes from and still be thoughtful about what the other person likes, sounds good to me. Besides won't it be fun putting Xmas bows on Halloween....hehehe

LOL ya know buying discounted Halloween decor stuff would be a GREAT idea for my kids...they'd love that sort of stuff for Xmas gifts to decorate their rooms etc...I'll have to check out whats on sale when I'm out today....BRILLIANT suggestion :-D

I don't think these are weird Christmas gifts at all. My husband and I are somewhat gothic, and Halloween is our favorite holiday as well. We love great decor and dressing up, the whole 9. I think these are cool gift choices for your son and his fiance, and I think it's great of you to be thoughtful of their likes in that way. Especially if you got them at a great deal!

I don't think it's a weird idea at all, ctry. To me the object of giving gifts is to make sure it is something that the recipient will welcome. I saw quite a few Halloween markdowns when I was out, but I don't know anyone who really goes all out with decorating for Halloween, so I refrained from buying any of them. I am sure your son and his fiance will love the gifts.

I think that is a really cool idea. I stock up all the freebies I get for a few months for stocking stuffers. Pens, notepads, sample packs of skin care and shampoos. Right now I am trying out Chapman's kids site to get prizes, So far I have a calculator and apron coming and hope to get a pack of three pens by chirstmas. The kids love it and it helps me save money to get other things for them.

Hi... No I don't think it's weird but rather I think it's a grand idea! Especially since it's their favorite holiday. They're going to be really surprised and happy and knowing you've been so thoughful is going to be all the more nice. Good thinking!

I think that's an awesome idea ctry!....They will have so much fun next Halloween putting out all new stuff!...That's great! I would have done that in a second for my daughters and their hubbies.......my one daughter use to be a Manager for Medic when it was still around, and use to buy alot of items for gifts from there like that.....they were great deals too! Good choice and a super idea!

I think it was a great idea. Sounds like they are going to enjoy the presents. That is what really matters most.

Oh my gosh NO!!! That is the funnest way to do Christmas! The holiady has gotten so out of theme. Spend the most, pay all year just in time to spend the most again! My kids are older and we have all realized that we dont need all the things we think we do! last year, i bought my daughter a gift card to Starbucks - $50. I haven't seen her face shine like that since she had her little girl!! She was Thrilled!! And what a squeal!!! I dont' think there is anything else I could have gotten her that would have made her so happy! And she thought of me everytime she used it for the next few months! _-okay, the next month! IF thek ids like halloween deco - buy that for them ! They'll have a blast next year putting itup! I am looking for stocking stuffers now. I love doing hte stockings. I do practical but usable and fun and they just love seeing what I found. My kids are 25 and 29 and love mom's stockings! Put the fun and joy and "kids" back in christmas, i say.

I don't see your gifts as weird in any way. A gift is something that we think that the person/persons receiving it will like. So if you know that they enjoy Halloween decorations and will be happy so they will have interesting new decorations for next year, than it's the perfect gift. For me this just shows that you know them and I'm sure they will love that specific gift :)

If holloween is his favorite holiday, I'm sure he'll love the gifts you bought for him.
