So if you accidentally found your stocking stuffers...
would you peek in the bag, since most of them aren't wrapped, and you could easily see what they are? Or would you be a good "grown-up" type person and wait?


This is a purely hypothetical question, btw. O8)

2. I'm horrible about that.
I'm 20, but I act like I'm 5 when it comes to presents.

3. I don't think you ever outgrow that if that's your inclination
My brother is 50 and can't stand an unopened gift if it's for him!

5. I'd wait.
I never want to "peek" or know ahead of time.

I did that *once* many years ago - and Christmas was kinda "ruined" for me. I vowed to never peek again. And I haven't.

7. No- u should wait. Peeking is how I found out Santa wasn't real
I peeked in my moms closet under some blankets (I was about 8)
and found a beautiful pair of roller skates.
I was SO excited!!

On Christmas morning I got the roller skates from Santa.

I was heartbroken.

I never said a word to my mom but after that i never peeked again.

Plus, how many times in life are you surprised?

6. No peeking
Peeking makes tomorrow less fun.
