My little brother found them last year, and this year he went back to the same place, and I went along, and there they were once again. lol We've never gotten caught. Has anyone else found your presents? Have you gotten caught?

I used to when I was little, but not all of them... my mom hides them pretty good. She told me where she hides them, finally, but when I looked there, they were gone. She moves them to the attic when they're wrapped.

I really don't care about the concept of "knowing what I got", it's just the idea of "oh I've finally found them" that I like :lol:

Well I buy them and wrapped half of them, so I don't need to snoop.

I don't snoop. I don't wanna know what I get.

I didn't like the idea of snooping and I still don't today. The past few years I have found out at least a couple of things I got but it was by accident and it wasn't my fault. It was because of amazon.com's wish list system. This year it's spoiler-free. If you're logged in it will show you a link of the stuff that was purchased instead of having it right on the page when you enter.

Why would you wanna ruin the fun of Xmas for yourself? No I've never snooped and I never will.

My dad keeps the presents from "santa" in the attic at his office so i cant snoop and i dont want to. but its my tradition to snoop at one of my wrapped presents under the tree.

For some people such as my brother, its about getting the presents, they dont care about being surprised.

Ya, Ive found them before when I was really young.. but it was for my birthday. As for my Christmas presents.. my mother hides them down cellar in my Dads workshop. I could easily look @ them if I wanted too.. but I like the surprise.:D

I agree! I never snooped. My kids didn't either(so they say);)

Why spoil all the fun? My brothers did though! This seems to be more of a "boy" thing don't you think?:D

Yeah, that's what my sisters and I did too. It drove us nuts trying to figure out what was in them! That was most of the fun..........guessing!:happyface

Me either. But I always wonder WHAT is under the wrapping paper.

About two years ago I found one of my Christmas presents. I wasn't snooping though. My mom told me to get her jacket from her closet, and I guess she forgot that one of my presents was in there unwrapped. I went in, and saw a brand new VCR (my other one was crap!). It really did ruin things, I know my mom and dad really wanted to see me surprised.

I usually know what I am getting, but I've found one or two of mine hiding in the closet in the hallway. I found this microscope thing I got one time just sitting in the top of the closet. I guess it was supposed to have been covered up by all my dad's camoflauge jackets, but it just wasn't. I've opened up a couple of boxes under the tree before too.

Well Santa got the days wrong and he came a little early, so my presents are up in my parents closet...how original? ;) cept I dont peak at them because they are all wrapped and I generally know what I am getting

I know exactly where they are b/c every year after thanksgiving my mom transforms our guest bedroom into "the wrapping room".


However, I've never ONCE looked for my presents, I love the suprise.

I snoop around the tree and shake the boxes and guess what's in them, but I don't want to actually KNOW what I get until Christmas. Takes the fun out :p

What a coincidence...I just found a colored wrapped box on the backstairs with my name on it, but I didn't shake it or anything, because I'm no snoop. :)

I love being surprised, so I never bothered to look -- no matter how high the temptation was.

Yep. Last year I was looking in my mother's closet for my shoe and I found our "Santa" presents. My little brother got a Nintendo Gamecube and I got a DVD player!:D My little sister gotta Barbie and whole bunch of other stuff. She always gets more presents but my brother's and mine are always more expensive.:)
