Yes I shop all year for Christmas, that is mainly what I use my survey money for. I have a hall closet and I call it my Christmas closet so whenever I find a good deal on something I get it and put it there for Christmas.

I am sticking to a strict budget this year like I always do. I plan to do most of my shopping with the gift cards that I have earned throughout the year.

I use my gift cards and survey money to do almost all my Christmas shopping

I haven't bought or even thought of anything yet.  It's a little early for me, I usually start in the beginning of November.

I am with you, I have a closet full of goodies I buy anytime I see a good sale.  Then I am ready for Christmas, Birthdays any special occasion.  I also have a couple drawers of card stock, so I can have a card ready pretty quickly for any occassion.  (Somestimes I will just spend an couple of hours making them in advance for the next month.

I shop year round for Christmas.  If I find something that someone might like, I buy it.  Have a great weekend!

I would shop year round for Christmas with sales, but those on my Christmas list don't really need anything, or will buy it on their own during the year.   It's getting harder & harder as everyone is getting older.     Gift Cards are the way to go.

I walked into Lowe's today and was shocked to see all the Christmas stuff out. It was a little exciting but way too early.

I haven't gave it much thought yet. I am in the process of moving right now and will need to get settled into the new place. After that I will probably start some shopping. I've got some gift ideas for the people I'm buying for.

I normally would have started at this point in the year, but you hit it on the head.  Financial reasons....hopefully i will be able to do some at some point.
