It's a time of giving. It's Christmas time!

I just got back from a little Christmas shopping a while ago. This is my first Christmas shopping trip as I have been avoiding the traffic at those popular malls.

I like Mid Valley City as compared to One U this year because of the beautiful decorations and the delightful Christmas mock-ups of Gingerbread houses, Big Bold figurines, dazzling lights and tower-tall Christmas trees. I'm slapping myself for leaving my camera behind. It's so attractive for children and even adults!

Christmas is special, it's sweet, and a season I look forward to it every year. I love shopping for Christmas gifts and I enjoy the Christmas spirit. Actually, I would prefer spending Christmas in Singapore if I have a choice.

I bought a gift for my niece and that was all I had time for... time flies so fast when you are in a huge mall!

I have some overseas friends and instead of mailing them gifts, which is what I used to do, I resort to buying online gift hampers since last year. I think it's a great idea because it saves me the worry of late arrivals and gifts lost in the mail.

I just sent made an online Christmas hamper order from anAustralia gift site to a close couple friend in Perth last week. And it was so convenient, affordable and it saved me postage time and risks too.

I have few close relatives who live in California and each year, we would just send them Christmas cards because it was just too costly to send gifts (esp heavy ones) to the U.S.

Then I came across this online gift site which stocked lots of lovely gift baskets. I thought that would be a fantastic idea to ensure my US cousins get more than just a card this year!

What is great is the wonderful selection of gift ideas, from Cakes, to gift baskets, to flowers, even gourmet foods/meals. I can send now food gifts without worrying about freshness and custom regulations.

They say 'Pictures speak a thousand words' and that's what you can find in the website. There are photos of the items so you know what you are ordering. Besides, there are gifts which are below $20 if you have a budget to consider. Buy More & Save!! Use coupon code "buymore" get save 5% on your order.


Well, I'm beginning to work out my recipients' list now that I found this great U.S. gift site.
