Christmas-who has started shopping?

[Teejai]

I do my Christmas shopping usually around the end of August. Because I can take my time and I can easily get what Im searching for,  and I dont have to go through all that hassle searching what I needed, especially waiting on line.

I wish I could. As usual, I have to bug everyone for their wish lists and usually don't get the one from the youngest grandson's parents until mid-December, which means most of what our grandson wants is sold out. It's too stressful.

I also start right after Christmas, when they are getting rid of lots of excess merchandise for really cheap.  Some things you know you will always need.  Christmas pajamas, knit gloves, scarves and hats.  I have about 15 kids (nieces, nephews grand kids) that I give an ornament to every year , so I always get them right after Christmas.  Then throughout the year if I see something (especially on sale!) I put up items.   Then the money hit is not as hard as doing it all in maybe a 6 week time frame.

I actually just finished up my shopping for my boyfriend. Still have to get the rest of the family though!

I buy zero Christmas gifts - so yay, nothing to shop for. I buy myself a handful of things on Black Friday (online options only) or Cyber Monday, but nothing for Christmas.

We started last Sunday, we went to an outlet bought gifts for nieces and nephews. Next time for husband and mother  in-law.

  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 .

I haven't started just yet.  At the moment, I'm accumulating a list of who wants want.  I'll probably do most, if not all, of my Christmas shopping online.  I love Christmas and everything about it.  It renews me each year to know that Christ is born.  It gives me a happy and hopeful feeling for the future and makes me feel reborn.

I have bought only one gift so far. I got it at such a good price, I couldn't pass it up. I plan to wait until after Thanksgiving to purchase the rest of my gifts, though.

If cashing out my on-line groups points for gift cards is shopping, then yes

I have only bought a couple of things.  I don't have a lot to buy for.  Mostly my daughter and my new grandson.  I also have a few others to buy for.
