My wife let me do the Christmas shopping this year...
Hey all,
So I convinced my wife to let me do the shopping this year! I have 6 nieces on her side of the family to buy for, well, I'm done! Had to get a green Luke one for myself & one for the wife. Happy holidays!

Now that's my idea of Christmas shopping

Get everyone Star Wars stuff and if they aren't fans , frack 'em , they just need to learn to be fans

You can always use the Jedi Mind Trick approach too

I think I'm safe! I got an eye roll & a "I guess I should have seen that coming"
Probably be a few years before I get to do the shopping again though...just in time for the sequel!

Smart move dude! I find that if you are continually bad at something, they eventually stop asking you to do it
It even works with your actual marital status, I was bad at been a husband and now my wife has stopped been my wife

Haha that's awesome!
I shopped for my nephews yesterday and bought them TFA figures. I'm not into modern but I have to say I was a little jealous.....

Supposed to be almost 70 here tomorrow (outside of Philadelphia, PA) & that's when we celebrate Christmas on my wife's side of the family. Perfect weather for an outside lightsaber duel! I'm so psyched! Happy holidays everyone 
My two nephews are only 1 but they got Darth Vader pajamas! I haven't been this psyched for Christmas in awhile, I don't even care if they like their presents or not, I love them so...win!

Well this went over well! Had an epic 90 minute lightsaber battle in the dark! None of them have even seen Star Wars but all knew what a lightsaber was. I definitely won Christmas Eve! None of them could put the lightsabers down & surprisingly no one got hurt, besides me of course. These things really held up, I was impressed. To make matters even better, my wife's Facebook status reads - & this is what happens when I let my husband buy the Christmas gifts! Boom! Happy holidays everyone!

Hahaha great to see how your light saber gifts turned out really well for your neices.
Probably you are rewarded to do shopping again next year.

I wished I had lightsabers when I was a kid
Thats a pretty great purchase and the kids certainly look happy.
