Christmas AGAIN - Chrsitmas is around the corner
I try to start early because I can't do the last minute thing, I'm one if I don't have it weeks before its not for my to get or have it. I do preferr to do all my Christmas shopping like at least a couple months ahead so all I have to focus on is cooking and working. Oh I can't forget the wrapping LOL

I start in june/july as i try and get it done ASAP so im not out with the crazy last minute shoppers trying to get it all done at once. I am almost done, i just have a few things left for my boyfriend and since i have a list it goes by a lot smoother and easier when you have a list go by. When you start early your not so stressed out thinking of everything you need to get and what you have to do. YOur also not worried if you have enough money asa you have been doing a little here and there. Waiting to the last minute would get me so stressed out and so annoyed with everything.

I shop all year round. I have a present box, and when I see something that would do for a birthday or Christmas present, I buy it. If I know who it's destined for, I'll wrap it and label it. It's now November 9th, and I only have one present to buy for this year. Most of them are wrapped, too, and all of them are paid for, so there'll be no nasty surprises on the credit card statements in the New Year. We have a large family to buy for, so it's the only way that makes sense.

Well, for me, I start early. Most especially when stores are on seasonal sales. You can find a lot of good bargains. I collect so I don't really do last minute shopping. I noticed that during the winter months or when it's almost Christmas, yes, stores do go on sale, but theyre still expensive. So, I try to shop early.

In past years I have always started my shopping early, but this year with the bad economy I had not been able to. I will be making homemade gift baskets full of goodies (fudge, cookies and candy)for my husband's side of the familly. I will be painting ceramic ornaments for my family. For my niece and nephews I bought them books. I am trying to win a gift cards for Best Buy so I can get my husband a Nintendo Wii. I know that is what he wants the most. I know he needs clothes as well.
