Top 10 Items We’ll Forget and Have to Run Out For on Christmas

What Christmas is complete without a panicked trip to your local grocery/convenience store to grab something you forgot (or don’t have enough of).

According to a new survey, here are the Top 10 items we’re most likely to rush out to grab on Christmas:

  1. Batteries
  2. Milk
  3. Bread
  4. Wine
  5. A box of chocolates
  6. Scotch tape
  7. Gravy
  8. Someone’s present
  9. Wrapping paper
  10. Other foods for dinner

Reading this list, we’re all thinking, “Oh, hey, I’ll go out and get this stuff now and not forget or have to rush out.”  Well, that’s not how it works, and most of us will still forget something or need to run out. Let’s be real . . .

*Fun fact . . . that photo up top is a real photo from Fletch. He ran out of tape, so he wrapped his wife Ruthanna’s present with red and green duct tape.
