Gifts

I have a lot of gifts coming up: teachers and therapists at school for year end thank-yous, the afterschool daycare coordinator, and my sister's shower.  How to do this when trying to stay within my monthly credit card budget?  It's a question I ponder as I look over my 3 new tee-shirts I purchased this week to replace the old, worn out ones from last year.  The bigger question for the balancing act today: how to fit in the shopping trip to these stores, when today seems like the only feasible day to get it all done (packing for camping this week is on the list, but first things first).  Today's tightrope feat: tackle today's work, perform the school drop off, attend a doctors appointment, host dinner with parents, and spectate a tee ball game.  I WILL fit in the trip to Target, Hallmark and Deals (and maybe Michaels) for these gifts in the day somewhere...just where?
