Christmas-who has started shopping?
« on: November 05, 2015, 11:14:07 am »
  Who has started their Christmas shopping?  Some stores started putting out Christmas everything in August, but mentioned it in July.  Christmas isn't fun anymore-too commercialized.  Greed takes place and many not knowing that it is always about family, a lot of food,  thanking the Lord for another Christmas and of course that special gift . :rose:

I have started my Christmas shopping.....I will do most of it Online this year. 
Some will be geared toward our daughter's upcoming wedding in January....so for the bride and groom I have wedding registries to check out and shop from.

I usually get lists from all the kids to help ease the shopping stress.  I want to get them something they want/need rather than just "something" under the tree.

Seriously? I guess it is November, isn't it?

 One grand-daughter has a biday this month, then a great-grandson next month, and oh gifts for everyone.

I am in hiding, pretending it is January 3rd.

Ha ha!

Mom's birthday is today, mine is Dec. 5th, sister is on the 20th.  I can't think that far ahead!

No, I haven't started Christmas shopping yet. I am getting a list together and trying to figure out gift ideas for family and friends, though.

I did a little early in the year. But to my disappointment, my daughter is going to Europe during the holidays and just wants money. So I only have to shop for a much smaller family. Very sad for me since I love giving gifts.

No I haven't done anything yet. I just buy gifts for my hubby, mom and dad. My shopping will probably be done online.

I have one gift bought for a friend. Other shopping I'll probably start later this month. Luckily the people I shop for are easy.

I bought some toys this week.  I buy them early so I can play with them before I give them away.
I have to make sure they're fun.

Past experience has informed me that purchasing Christmas presents (for the most part) ends in absolute disaster (i.e., wrong present, wrong size, etc.). So I made it easier on myself by either giving money or gift cards. :-)

I just finished with my son's birthday so I'm taking a break from any presents until the end of the month. If I see something that catches my eye I might get it now and save for later.
