  • Ok, own up. Who has started Holiday Shopping

    I just got an email from my friend and she said she just finished Christmas shopping, all that left is the food for dinner. I haven't even thought about it and she's already done. OMG
    So who out there is working on their Christman list.

    Your friend has an illness....lol

    Well, we cleaned out our closet a few weeks ago and we found a small bag of gifts that we bought last year or the year before...so does that count as starting early?

    I have actually bought a few things already though, and I have cards and gift wrap purchased on sale last year, so I'm on my way.

    But seriously..your friend is sick!

      I usually finish up around the 24th of December. My aunt, on the other hand, is always, always finished by Halloween. It is almost like something is wrong if she is not.

      I did buy cards right after Christmas last year, year before too, so now I haev 3 years worth of cards in my trunk somewhere.

        I work at a Hallmark, so each year after Christmas I buy my paper and boxed cards when it's all marked down and with my discount it works out really well.
        Problem is, all the new pretty stuff comes in and I want it too..lol

          LOL Mooch! But you can buy the new pretty stuff...you just have to wait til next year to use it.

          I've bought a couple of things. I do a lot of shopping online b/c I hate shopping. But yeah, I usually start in October in an effort to finish by the end of November. But of course, I'm always running around two days before Christmas looking for stocking stuffers anyway.

            With kids, shopping early is as practical as washing the cat. Nobody likes the end result, I get fuzzled in the process, and the cat just ends up licking itself anyway.
