I always start shopping in early october- i hate holiday rushes and never step foot in a store past the 2nd week of november!!!!
for FH, we are keeping it small and simple and will be taking a day trip together in lieu of gifts since we just booked our wedding!!

I usually start picking things up around Aug. Then really start in Nov & I do most of my shopping on Black Friday. Its a tradtition with my mom.
For FH we usually go crazy for each other at christmas but this year we will really be scaling back because we are saving for our wedding. Not sure what I am planning on getting him though.

I bought a few things when I saw a really good sale, but most of my shopping is done online on Cyber Monday.
As far as FH goes - we usually go all out for Christmas because it's our (my) favorite time of year, but now that we're looking for a house and paying for a wedding, we'll probably buy a few things that we want for our house and buy one or two little things for eachother like tickets to a play or something we like to do together.

I try to start shopping early but luckily I only have FI to shop for this time. My parents and siblings decided to forego gifts this year and just do yummy cookies. And I have no idea what to get FI yet, I'll have to get snooping.
