A shopping tale...and a shopping poll **Clicky boxes!!**
Had to zoom over to Amazon to order my copy of Star Trek and pre-order HBP. Then had to tell the boys what I'd ordered.
Me: This one *showing Star Trek page at Amazon* will be shipped tomorrow and get here sometime next week.
Younger Son: COOL!
Me: This one *showing HPB page at Amazon* will be shipped December 8th.
Younger Son: What? NOOOOOOOOOO!
Now, for a poll. Just for the sake of my curiosity...

Out of the way, Mall Rats! I'm comin' through!

Mostly online, but I'll have to leave the house at *some* point, so I'll pick up a few things then, too.

Mostly at the shops, but some gifts can only be found online.
