Who's starting their holiday shopping?
« on: November 06, 2009, 09:39:00 pm »
My family has grown since last year.  That means I have more people to buy for and even more money to spend.  Is shopping early a good thing, will it save me time and money?  Or, is it better to wait for all these so called sales that occur after Thanksgiving?

I got a lot of my Christmas shopping done this morning.  We only buy for the kids in our family.  For the adults, we each bring 1 gift and draw numbers, etc.

I've got a good start on my nieces and nephews and I'm done with my son.  I only have a few others to buy.

it could save you some money...save you time, definitely. you are also likely to get exactly what you want, bc closer to christmas, more things will be selling out with all the people wanting them at once. some of the sales aren't really all that great, anyway lol. i guess every penny counts though...which is why i haven't started my shopping yet. i can't afford it, atm. :( ah, the life of a broke college student lol.

I have not starting shopping yet online, but I plan on using a site that I have found which will save me money and give me cash back.  I would give a referral link, but that is in violations of this forum.  But that is what I plan on doing.  Good luck to all of you.  reddragonppl at gmail dot com
