I know its still early

But has anyone started Christmas shopping. I was thinking about starting in Oct. because of my wedding money is tight right now.

Re: I know its still early

yeah, I was thinking about starting early too. It's so not like me, but I'm stressing out at the thought of it, so I think I'm just going to spread it out a little more this year.

Re: I know its still early

to be honest... Christmas is on the bottom of my list. The wedding has taken over everything!!!

If i do any shopping at all, it will probably be a last minute thing which would result in a bunch of Gift certificates!!!

I start planning it now (to stay within my budget) and start the buying in Oct. That way I'm done before Thanksgiving.

Re: I know its still early

YOU WOULD BE VERY SMART TO START NOW SO YOU WON'T REALLY FEEL IT IF YOU HAD TO SHOP ALL AT ONCE!

Re: I know its still early

My FH just got laid off. He's local 3 electrician so I already told everyone that if you are over the age of 5 then you don't get a present this year.

Re: I know its still early

I haven't even given Christmas shopping one, single thought...I don't think Santa is going to be as generous this year as she has been in the past...
