I've been trying to get ahead on my Christmas gifts, and I recently placed an order with Amazon to get a bunch of things all at once.
When they came in, I proceeded to wrap them. I started out with a certain methodology for wrapping, but as I ran out of paper, I just used what I had left.
Anyway, I totally forget what things I wrapped with what paper. In fact, I can't even remember what the things I got for each person are!
I do remember a few things that I tried to do while I was wrapping. See if you can figure out what present is for which person and what wrapping paper I used to wrap it...
- Four gifts I ordered from Amazon arrived on the same day, which were either a book, a DVD, or a game.
- I wrapped those items using different rolls of two-color wrapping paper. Under the tree, the packages were red, green, and gold. (Each package is wrapped with paper that consists of exactly 2 colors.)
- I wrote out tags for all of the gifts for Abby, Berta, Patrick, and Dave, but now that they're under the tree, I forget which tag goes on which package! Moreover, I forget which thing I got for each person!
- I wrapped the girls' presents in paper that included gold as one of the colors, and when I was done there wasn't enough paper with gold in it to wrap the single game I got.
- Dave's DVD player is garbage, so I didn't bother getting him a DVD.
- I remember thinking it was odd that most of the presents had green in them, and although Berta likes green, her gift didn't have green in its wrapping paper.
- Looking at it again, I think one of the gifts with green in its wrapping is a DVD - I can tell by the shape.
- Running low on paper, I gave up on using the colors to keep the gifts straight and used the last of the paper from Abby's gift to wrap Dave's.
