Christmas shopping

[plennis]

I watch for things all year long that I know people will like.  I have a box in a closet I put the things in, sometimes these are Birthday or Graduation gifts too!  Then I don't have to get the big hit at the  holidays.  I spend less too, because I buy when they are on sale, and or I have coupons for them, if it is a gift they like who cares if you bought it in July.  LOL     This also makes it where if I don't feel like fighting the holiday crowds I don't have to.   I have a lot of family out of the area, so I can have the Christmas boxes packed and ready to go before it gets so nuts at the post office too.   So you may not believe it, but this a a great holiday stress reliever.   I love the holidays, but I also love to be able to relax and enjoy them.

I haven't done mine yet, but I am starting to look to get ideas about what to buy. I'm glad I don't have to do a lot of Christmas shopping.

I  will start Christmas shopping in about about a month. If I start shopping too early,
I will buy something and forget were I put it.LOL

I will start my shopping in Nov. after my son bday. so he will be occupied with his gifts from that and I can do some online looking around to what I can afford for him or to see whats hot and how much are the things he really wants.

I was actually picked up a few little things so far.   This is really a good start for me.  I am usually scrambling as it gets closer to Christmas

I do Christmas shopping all year long. I go to garage and estate sales all year and collect cool things that I think my loved one will love. Its a good way to save a ton of money.

I never start Christmas shopping until Black Friday!   I save all year for that; and Cyber Monday too!!

I haven't started yet, but I've thought of it but have no idea what type of presents I want to buy my loved ones. That's a smart idea though! Also, things are cheaper right now. Once Christmas gets closer prices are going to get higher.

I will be getting ready to start christmas shopping. The hardest part is for the kids. Everyone else is easy.

I'll start next week and will complete the majority of shopping by the end of October.
