It is too late for this year to do that but definitely will put it in the memory bank for next year. :) what a nifty idea!

I also wanted to give you an idea for the future. My husband is the oldest of 7. They have been doing secret Santa exchanges at Christmas since they were kids. Now 2 "kids" are married and the spouses (me) are included. We usually draw names on Thanksgiving. So we have time to shop for each other. The only rule in drawing names is you can't draw yourself of course or your spouse for the married ones. It's a tradition they still love and get excited about. Oh thanks for the compliment on my haircut! :-) Great idea! I also wanted to give you an idea for the future.

I have set up the "mom store" before, but had not "priced" anything for the kids to buy...just had them pick out gifts for siblings from my stash. I'd love to see your list of available chores and the amount of commission earned. Thanks so much for sharing! Totally love this idea!

It's so great that your kids want to earn extra "money" for the presents. I would love to avoid the stores too. That is an awesome idea!
