 :-X My biggest pain is going to a store to buy some gifts and I stand in a customer line for over an hour. 'I HATE WHEN THAT HAPPENS' :sad1:.

I started and almost every year start my holiday shopping in July. I look for the deals also I DONT have to deal with the traffic and crowed shopping malls. This way I can also take my time and really ralize what I need to buy or will buy for my family and freinds. I love it this way! :thumbsup:

I think trying to get out and do anything. Everything is so congested. Also, certain family members can make you want to  :crybaby2:.

Shopping..but I wouldn't say it's a pain, just stressful. Lot's of money..money I don' have. Other than that (and the crowded stores) I really enjoy the holidays. The past few years I have had a great holiday season.

The biggest pain would be the crowd of people bumping into you and the rushing of running around which is kind of hectic during the holidays anyway, other than that I love the holidays

I think the biggest pain about the holidays is seeing them come to an end!   :sad1:

trying to shop in big crowds isn't fun for me.

I don't celebrate any holidays so I don't have any pains that come across it... Other then the fact that I have a free day and missed out any experience with the holidays

The biggest pain would be cleaning the house... I don't mind decorating, but just getting it cleaned up enough to put up the decorations. And the snow... Sometimes we're lucky and it hasn't snowed much yet, but other years we'll have a huge snow storm on Halloween, and the snow doesn't seem to let up until after Valentine's Day.

We're also super busy at work right now; all of the companies want to get their orders done before the IT freeze that many retail stores have during the holiday season. So although it isn't during the holiday season, it is another pain that the holidays bring.

Holidays are around the corner and coming up what's the biggest pain about the holidays you don't enjoy?

For me it has to be the bumper to bumper traffic and the idiot drivers who cut you off
sometimes the biggest pain can be missing the past great holiday memories

I love the Holidays, however the thing I don't like about it is rude people. When your shopping it just seems that you get ran over and folk don't no how to say excuse me ,,ugh.

Thats not just the holidays here in texas.. Thats everyday people push through you in a store even though there is plenty of room to go around.. and excuse me is like a chore to people... when someone does something like that i get irritated and say YEAH YOUR EXCUSED.. they aways look back but it should not be that way.. people can be rude! That or you will stand around in walmart an hour or two you got all these employees standing around talking but 1 lane open..LOL.. it's always the same there

What a great question.  Christmas has become far too commercial.  The crowds at the stores are frustrating.  Lastly, I hate that there is so much traffic on the highways between Thanksgiving and New Years.

Shopping. Trying to find the best deals. This year I just did it the easy way, and only spent about $80. People aren't getting as much but at least I don't have to shop anymore.

I don't understand why people wait to the last minute to shop.  I would start earlier than most.  I just don't get into it buy my girlfriend does everything.  Bigger towns are flooded with traffic which I don't like either,  I can't even do simple things like paying bills and getting groceries.
