Are you an impulse gift buyer?

Yeah, when the holiday is coming, shops will offer big discount and most of what we dream of are on sale. I don't have a gift list from my friends, but i also would buy gifts to some special friends. I may plan my shopping list before a week and give them out on our christmas Eve party.So in this points, I am not a impulse gift buyer. But most of the time i am an impulse buyer. I will collect the discount information of all the shops. and i often buy something that i don't really need. But i plan to control my impulse of shopping this year and make a saving. For that, I think shopping on-line is a good choice, as I always tend to take many things into consideration bfore I make decisions to buy something in the on-line shops.

My husband never tells me what he wants for Christmas. He always says "I don't need anything". With everyone else in the family we try to guess what to get because we have to ship and we try to save as much money as possible when shiping. My husband works part time and I am currently unemployed so shopping has been hard this year. I will be making a lot of homemade gifts this year so this will save us some money. Even if we had the money I would still ask people what they want. I have three nephews (ages 7 and 4) and a niece who is 4 and they are a lot of fun to shop for because they tell you all the time what they want. Just a side note, my four year old niece told me tonight that the day after Thanksgiving is Chistimas (thats what she calls Christmas).

Yes, I can not tell a lie. I too is like that. If it is on sale to where the price is unbeatable I will buy and figure out who can use it and give it as a gift for the holidays. I think that is smart buying if you ask me.

i would have to say that i am. i tend to do both. i buy stuff on sale that i like throughout the year and then buy the rest around christmas so everyone gets something they both have asked for and can use.

My husband and I purchase our gifts for what the other has asked for. The same with friends. As for his parents we just tend to buy what we feel they need and / or would want. This is our second Christmas shopping and this Christmas we have more money only because he now has a job. We still try to get things for cheaper, like for each other!
