Question about santa gifts VS Family gift

How do you insure that presents "santa"is buying your children wont be bought by someone in the family (like a a grandparent, aunt, uncle).

Do you tell family members what santa is buying or what santa didnt get around to buying?

Just curious for next year!

No, I was worried about that and even hesitant on starting shopping for DS for that reason, but I saved all my gift receipts just in case.

ETA: I have a TRU wishlist also. Some people didnt stick to it, they told me, and some people didnt get it from TRU so I'm sure there will be doubles Chat Icon Reason for the wishlist! Chat Icon

I did that too and for some people it was great (ex my mom she loved it, stuck to it, and appreciated it) but others didnt (MIL) and somethings I bought as a santa gift I am afraid she bought too!

Now this year my dd is 18 months and really wont know but I am talking about going forward.....what do I do!!!
