Christmas shopping

[devilroljin]

I'm not an early shopper, maybe that is not smart, but I mostly do my Christmas shopping in December. I can't go out and buy something furry in summer, just because the low prices. I buy stuff that I need when I need them, or buy stuff that I want, when I want them. I know, I know, I should be a smarter shopper, but I guess as a man, I'm doomed to be a dumb shopper

I generally wait until November to begin seriously thinking about it.

whats going to be the hottest thing to buy for kids this time around?

Nope...I'm not ready for Christmas yet. Money is tight these days.

I haven't started Christmas shopping yet. This might be about the longest I have ever waited to start. I might do most of mine online this year on black Friday again. I had good luck with that last year.

I like to pick things up whenever I find them throughout the year.  I've already got things collecting in a box.

Thank you all for sharing, I wondered if I was just one of the few that shops early.

[Paulinha]

No. I dont even know what ia am going to do this year. I am out of work

[alice44]

Yes - I do shop early so I can do more.  If I wait - I won't have the money to do all I want.  I budget it out each month.
I have to admit though - I do more thinking than shopping.  Then I keep a list of all the ideas I come up with and use it to shop from.

Don't even want to think about Christmas!!!!!

I do mine throughout the year, so I don't spend too much money!

I have already started Christmas shopping. I have been able to find some good stuff on clearance online combined with free shipping offers and extra % off codes. I have also been signing up for free stuff online and through different programs. My big score was a bunch of Fisher Price toys that i got through HouseParty. I received a Servin Surprises Kitchen & Table set with 5 accessories, Disney Princess singing Palace, and a Little Wheelies amusement park set. I let my kids open the table and a few of the accessory packs so i can do the party but the other toys i put back in the closet and are saving them for Christmas. Through couponing i have been able to get some household products free/cheap the i will put together in a gift box for family members. I did this for the first time last year and they were very happy to get them and can't wait for me to do it again this year.
