Johnny shook the last coin out of his piggy bank. He only had $5.67, to buy christmas gifts for his mother, father, sister, and grandmother. He was going to try and get his family something as much as he could. To himself he said" Nothing is going to stop me from buying something for them!"

Johnny shook the last coin from his piggy bank $5.67-- that was the money he had to buy Christmas gifts for his mother, father, sister, and grandmother. He had only seven days until Christmas to come up with the money. He was completely solemn when he walked out into the living room, so his parents would not say anything about it. He slowly slumped outside in search for some scattered change.

Johnny shook the last coin from his piggy bank $5.67-- that was the money he had to buy Christmas gifts for his mother, father, sister, and grandmother. I only have a week to find these gifts. The only thing that was holding him back was that he had five dollars and sixty-seven cents. He didn't know where to start so he got to thinking. His mother loved to cook. He knew that his father loved western movies. He knew his grandmother liked to read books. Finally, Johnny knew his sister loves dolls.

Johnny shook the last coin from his piggy bank. $5.67 -- that was all the money he had to buy Christmas gifts for his mother, father, sister, and grandmother. " What am I going to do" he groaned looking at the pig hoping that more change would fall out. " I can help, " his older cousin, Maurice, who had been sleeping over for the hoidays, announced. " I can't let you do that, " Johnny said but really didn't mean it. " Well, think of it this way," Maurice begins, " I'm just paying you back for all the times you've lent me money over the year plus interest." He says while smiling and lays a crisp hundred bill in Johnny's hand. Johnny ,in astonishment, begins to give it back but Maurice is already downstairs and out the door before he can even thank him. "Wow," is all he could say as he examined the bill.

Johnny shook the last coin from his piggy bank $567. That was all the money he had to but Christmas gifts for his Mother, Father, Sister, and Grandmother. So he went to his to his family and asked them what they wanted. His mother told him that she wanted a wii and the wii fit game so she could get in shape. He asked her what color should the wii be and she said white. She told him to get from walmart because it's cheaper there. The wii and the wii fit game altogether was a hundred dollars. So he had four hundred sixty seven dollars left.

Johnny shook the last coin from his piggy bank. $5.67 that was all the money he had to buy Christmas gifts for his mother, father, sister, and grandmother. When Johny counted again he looked up and nearly started to cry. How could $5 buy a gift for four people. He knew that only one or two people could get a present so he would have to choose. Johnny got up and ran to his mom. " Mommy I don't have enough to buy a gift for everyone on Christmas," said Johnny. " It's ok we'll figure something out let me see how much you have. Only $5, yeah that is pretty hard to buy presents with."

Johnny shook the last coin out of his piggy bank. He had $5.67 to buy for his mother, father, sister, and grandmother. Johnny went to the store to buy his relatives Christmas presents. For his mom he bought a scrapbook. He put homemade cards with the presents. The scrapbook had flowers on the cover. Johnny had figured that's what his mom wanted. He wrapped up the Christmas present for his mom. Then he put it under the tree.

Johnny shook the last coin from his piggy bank. $5.67 -- that was all the money he had to buy Christmas gifts for his mother, father, sister, and grandmother. He did not have enough money to buy a Christmas gift for everybody. It was his fault that he was low on money. He bought his self a new video game that cost him almost all his money. If he did buy them something with that money it would be cheap or homemade. But he did not want any of them to think of him as cheap, so he decided that he had to earn a little extra money.

Johnny shook the last coin from his piggy bank. $5.67 -- that was all the money he had to buy Christmas gifts for his mother, father, sister, and grandmother. Johnny was shocked because he thought that he had at least $120 to buy the gifts for his family. When Johnny tried to remember what had happened to his money, he then remembered that he spent almost all of his money hanging out with his friends. He had gone out skating, he went out to the movies, and he had bought a new outfit from the mall. He didn’t know what to do, and was utterly confused on how he could get the money he needed in time. He wanted to give his family the gifts he thought that they deserved, so he decided to do something about it.

So, he went to Dollar General and looked around. He knew that his mom liked to know the news about Hollywood, so he bought her a magazine that cost one dollar. He now has $4.67 dollars left to spend. He had to come up with 3 more gifts before the store closed. He was now thinking what his dad might would like to have. He was lost about ideas.

For his mom, a beautiful necklace. Dad got a power drill. His sister got a really nice doll. And grandma got a knitting kit. All of the gifts cost 50$. " but you have no money left to get yourself anything!" His mom said "I already got something. I got a Christmas miracle!" Johnny had made his whole family happy. And to him, that was the best gift ever.

Johnny shook the last coin from his piggy bank. $5.67 -- that was all the money he had to buy Christmas gifts for his mother, father, sister, and grandmother ... Johnny was so proud of himself. He had earned all the money himself, but it was not enough. He went in search for a job. As he was walking down the street, he saw a help wanted sign in the window, so he stop by. Johnny was sad because he was too young to get a job, so the owner gave Johnny another option.

Johnny shook his piggy bank and $5.65 cents came out. He has to buy presents for his whole family. He tried to spent $1.65 on each. He went to the mall and found something his sister liked but it was $5.00. So, he didn't get it. Then he found a thing his brother liked. It was way to much though.

Johnny the last coin from his piggy bank $5.76--that was all the money he had to buy presents for his mother, father, sister, and grandmother. He didn't know what to do. He remembered his parents telling him not to worry about buying presents for everyone but he would've felt bad if he didn't. So he left his house and headed for a local shop.this shop had a "little bit of everything," so Johnny knew it would be a great place to go.

Johnny shook the last coin from his piggy bank. $5.67 -- that was all the money he had to buy Christmas gifts for his mother, father, sister, and grandmother. So, he went to Dollar General and looked around. He knew that his mom liked to know the news about Hollywood, so he bought her a magazine that cost one dollar. He now has $4.67 dollars left to spend. He had to come up with 3 more gifts before the store closed. He was now thinking what his dad might would like to have. He was lost about ideas.

Johny shook his piggy bank and he only had $5.67 in it. And he needed to buy his mother, father, sister and grandmother. He realized that was not enough for all of them so he needed to figure something out.

Johnny shook the last coin from his piggy bank. $5.67 -- that was all the money he had to buy Christmas gifts for his mother, father, sister, and grandmother. He put his piggy bank down and rested his head on his hands. What was he going to do? He looked around his room as if answers were written on the walls in invisible ink. He leaned down and picked up an old yo-yo toy he had. He never played with this old thing.That's when it hit him! He could sell all his old toys--that were good of course-- and use the money he got to buy them gifts!

Therefore, you may have a person to give you gifts for many reasons. I am greatful when it comes down to me and christmas. I have many ways to express myself for christmas because its not the gift its the thought. Many people just celebrate christmas because of the gifts and/ or presents. But as for me I celebrate christmas because its jesus birthday and its a very religous holiday.

Johnny shook the last coin from his piggy bank. $5.67 that was all the money he had to buy Christmas gifts for his mother, father, sister, and grandmother. He decide to raise some more money so that everyone could have good gifts. So he asked his parents what he could do to earn more money. They said that he could rake leaves, dog sit, also walk some dogs. So out of all those he decide to rake people leaves. He spent almost 3 hours raking peoples yard and with that he earn 50 dollars! So then he asked if he could walk to the store to go get some presents. Of course he didn't say whose!
