Cathy Classics by Cathy Guisewite for December 09, 2009

For heaven’s sake, just put the gift card inside a money holder Christmas card and be done with it!!

quit making MOUNTAINS out of mole hills!!!!!

I’m with you funnyfan.

She definitely makes everything too complicated. She buys three other gifts besides the giftcard!

Look at all the extra SHOPPING she gets to do….

Keeps her out of the office.

Usually there are nice little envelopes right there beside the gift cards. They work fine. If not, there are cute holders at the Dollar Tree.

If you’re not going to mail it, wrap it up with a brick - they’ll never guess they’re getting a gift card!

I’ll take a gift card in a purse! ;)

My boyfriend always gets the little box of chocolates with the attached gift card holder. He knows me very well!

Cathy is just an overachiever. I understand her because I’m a bit like that too. Cathy teaches me how NOT to act in a situation.

Cathy is also a survivor, and she teaches us that no matter how crazy & silly our lives may become, don’t lose hope – Cathy survives it and so will we.

When I say overachiever, I mean that Cathy does not just wrap the one gift in any old Christmas paper and give it away. She cannot give just the one gift…she has to add to that gift, then add again because she feels it’s not good enough. She keeps going till she feels she has done enough, which is way over the top, usually.
