Re: Who Has Finished their Xmas Shopping

I started some of it, but I have to slow down b/c I am spending too mcuh time thinking about gifts and not worrying about what I need to pay off for the wedding hehe. I got a few things along the way that I just KNEW this one person would love. Plus they were like $10. Other than that, we aren't really doing much. After the honeymoon I have a week off, so I am going to do some shopping then and pick up some things but I am not going crazy.

That's me!

If my wedding wasn't so close to Christmas - well, it wasn't terribly close but I only got back from my Hm last week because we waited a week before going - I would have been about half done. No money yet - I will probably start thanksgiving weekend.

Re: Who Has Finished their Xmas Shopping

I have just started a few weeks ago. I like to be done by Dec. 15 or so. This year it's kinda hard-I've always worked in the mall for Christmas so I would just go shopping on my break and/or after my shift but now I never go to the mall anymore. I will pick up some stuff next week when I go.

Re: Who Has Finished their Xmas Shopping

I'm like you - i usually try to get it all done before December. I basically just buy things throughout the year and store it somewhere for Christmas. lol. However, this year there will be NO Christmas Shopping for us. With the wedding only 2 days after, there is just no extra time or money floating around for us.

That's my issue...I was so absorbed with the wedding I couldn't think about Christmas. I always send my cards 12/1 (always make my own) and I'm usually started with the shopping by now, but not this year. I did start but only got 3 gifts so far and I did create my Christmas and print them (they are very lame this year). I have no creativeness left after wedding.

Re: Who Has Finished their Xmas Shopping

if I go shopping to early, I end up over shopping. so I kick off my Christmas shopping on black Friday. I actually love fighting the crowds on that day.

Re: Who Has Finished their Xmas Shopping

Can I hire you???

I made my list and that's it...I plan to do a little this week. I just rec'd a Bath and Bodyworks free gift card to help me get started lol! I'm still writing TY cards so I feel like that's distracting me because I want to get them all out by Thanksgiving to beat the holiday rush.

But I also don't want to be shopping on Christmas Eve...
