Christmas Shopping

This post is sponsored. Ebay gave me $200 to spend at Ebay on Christmas presents and I said I’d tell you about what I bought. I agreed to this because I loathe shopping in-store for things during the Christmas madness.

I get twitchy taking Evie to shopping centres. Because of all her medical issues, we haven’t been able to vaccinate her yet and on the bad days, all I can imagine is her contracting whooping cough or something ridiculously awful and landing us back in hospital. Plus, not easily being able to get to the shops without Isaac in tow made it even harder.

So I went online and shopped from the comfort of my living room.

Look, I like Ebay. I’ve had good experiences with them, and I’m pretty loyal. I like that I can buy just about anything there that I can’t pick up elsewhere because of the International shipping. Case in point, Evie’s much loved dummies – the gumdrop kind, the only kind that she would actually take, can only be bought through Ebay if you’re an International customer.

I finished up the last of my Christmas shopping last night, through a few stores, but Ebay was nice and easy.

Among other things, I bought Evie these:

And for Amy, I got this:

Isaac missed out on the Christmas round of Ebay (I had him covered already), but his birthday is in January, so I’ll probably be back soon for him.

The images should all be links, in case you’re also interested. I did buy other things, but they’re secrets still.

It was an easy way to do everything, especially with small children in tow.

Now my only problem is that I need to get to the postman each morning before Isaac does!

If you buy now, then everything should be delivered well before Christmas. I think the press release said that the biggest day for online shopping is actually December 9, so you’ll even be beating the rush.
