Re: Xmas shopping?

Nooooo!!!! I always say I'm going to start early and every year I'm the loser running around a few days before Christmas shopping.

I've started to try and track down a Wii for my kids, if that's considered starting.

Re: Xmas shopping?

for the first time ever, I started early - today in fact.

I was at the outlets in Riverhead and bought a HUGE Estee Lauder gift set for my MIL. the price was too good to pass up.

I bought my sister another years subscription to Cosmo.
That's all so far...
I have too many other things (Birthday's and Anniversaries..including my own) before Christmas. I honestly cannot even think about it until the month of October is completley over.

Re: Xmas shopping?

I bought my son his big gift, so that's a start - and the earliest I've ever done so. The rest will just be done in the two weeks before Christmas because that is how I operate.

Has anyone started?

I officially started today when I bought SIL a "First year in our new house" ornament.

Any ideas on what you are getting family members?



Where did you find that ornament? I would LOVE to get my SIL one!!

Re: Xmas shopping?

I started. We are exchanging with ILs when they are up at Thanksgiving. Between November and January it's both MIL & FIL's brithdays, anniversary and Hanukkah so I have to get a lot for them.

I've picked up a few toys for my kids since I found some stuff on sale and it seemed silly to pass it by.

I think I'm getting DH a portable XM unit so he can listen on the train, so I've started to research that.

My family is doing a secret santa and we'll pull names at Thanksgiving so I can't start that yet.

Still have to figure out what to get BIL and his FW as well as my dad and his wife, but there's time for that.

Re: Xmas shopping?

Although I'd like to, I can't do it yet with a house purchase getting closer.

I joked with my family that no one is even getting presents from us. I might be closer to that idea than I thought!

Re: Xmas shopping?

I have started but it was more by accident then anything else.

I was shopping for something else and saw some things which I said to myself, "Oh so-and-so would love that" So I bought it.

I really hope to have everyone done by December 1st.

My job gets ridiculously crazy in December and I barely have time to eat/sleep none the less think about xmas shopping.

Re: Xmas shopping?

I've started already - and have some ideas on what to get other people. I do most of my shopping on line anyway and try to stay out of the malls as much as possible.
