Yesterday at work we started to talk about the summerholidays ending and school starting wich happends today. Al the workers, children are back to the old rutins. But Soon we will have holidays again. And the biggest one coming up is christmastime. I do enjoy christmas, for the reasons that we celebrait. But I don not like the spending and the shopping for gifts. It´s to expensive and seems to have taken over the reason why we even celebrate christmas in the first place. So now it´s time to make the savings for christmasshopping. Do you make such savings or for other reasons?

We have 4 children to buy for they are ages 14-19. Nothing that they want is cheep! I always go the day after Thanksgiving and try to get some good bargins. I do not really enjoy shopping but I love it that day. I guess it is the thrill of the hunt! I start buying things for the next Christmas about July. Then I don't have to spend it all at once.

God morning and thanks for respond,
Well uou think like me. You can not simply by al the gifts in one month. It is not possible. You do not get more salary just becouse it is Christmas. You are thinking well. I usually think the same way. I by some thins every month infact so When christmas come I wont feel so stressed out. Many people wait and get stressed out before the christmas have begun or has ended.

I have already done some shopping for christmas, but got a fair bit still to do. I think too much money is spent at christmas. So manyu people get into so much debt. Here in Australia has its main holidays at christmas. The kids get 6 weeks off, so you need to have things for them to do as well, and this usually costs.
Best wishes to you, anetteh

We only have the kids at home for two weeks. But the parents have to work day, evnings or nights depending on what cind of proffession you have. I for one mabe have to work this christmas. We make turn, I belive it is my turn.
Yes, we spend money we do not have. That in a way cost to. Mostely many take a credit and pay out during the rest of the year. That make it very expensive. In the end, we are going to live this world, and thinking of what you have spend your hard working money on...its to bad.
