My main aim is my four little ones and immediate family
Yes, already got a few. Usually pick things up as I see them.
Not started with the present buying yet and i have no idea what to get for my friends
I started buying Christmas gifts in July! I try to buy them through the year so that I can spread the cost.
I start a few months ago but still have a few bits to get yet, no idea what to buy my hubby yet.
No and I have heart palpitations thinking about it
I always have a few bits put up for my youngest but other than that, no, not really. I don’t like buying for anyone other than them and my sister. I never know what to get and don’t want anything myself. I just think people shpuld buy their own gifts hahah
Yes, I have started my shopping, son 5 is almost done but holding off buying the main present in case he changes his mind. (Currently he wants a Botley Coding robot). Husband is getting his present early – a rugby outing. No idea what i want for myself though and people keep asking.
I’m waiting for Black Friday, hoping to bag some bargains I didn’t know I needed for Xmas!
i have bought a couple of gifts already but still have a long way to go but got some good ideas for people
got most of my presents sorted just need a few more bits to get
Normally i am a late shopper, but this year, i am on the ball, and have nearly finished, i have had a list for family gifts, and have kept to it
I’ve bought one present and I am very short of other ideas. Thanks for the suggestions here!
What an awesome post! I think my husband would love the projector for watching tv on his phone. I’ve started my shopping late this year and I’m feeling quite stressed about it!
Yes I have! I buy things throughout the year so I don’t spend as much in one go in December and I know exactly what everyone is having!
I’ve started buying bits for my kids, I always struggle with my Hubby and my Dad! I find men are so hard to buy for
I have got some bits, but usually go a bit mad on black fridays!
Yes I have a few bits but unsure of what to get a few people
I haven’t started yet and still have no idea what i’m going to buy lol I usually start panicking in December
I haven’t started yet – I have a few ideas but I love going to lots of shops to get inspiration!
Nearly finished with my grandkids presents , yes i always buy them way to much , I just have a few family members to buy for and my husband
plan to start within the next week but at the moment I haven’t a clue what to get everyone!
I’ve got the main presents sorted, just need stocking fillers, clothes and bits n bobs
I haven’t started yet. Apart from my youngest who is 18 and at Uni who I know what I’m getting & hoping for a good deal on Black Friday, I have no idea what to get anyone else. I try to listen to things they mention but it’s been no help this year,
Im way too organised, otherwise it stresses me out !! I start buying in January sales…..
Started four months ago completely finished one week ago
I haven’t started my Christmas shopping yet, and I’ve absolutely no idea what to get. Thanks for the ideas.
I’ve bought my wife’s present and everyone else will get cash.Sorted.
We usually start boxing day, picking up bargains for next year
I haven’t started at all. I’ve got a few ideas though.
I started my christmas shopping early so i can get the best discounts
I start early looking for offers but always seem to have forgotten something nearer the time. Fantastic giveaway!
I started yesterday, just ordered a few items online in the sales, having six grandchildren always on the lookout for a bargain.
I haven’t started yet. Not sure what I am going to get yet!
Yes, i shop all year for various bargains. with 8 children it would be too much chaos to leave it too late and do it all in one go
I buy stocking fillers throughout the year and the Smyths catalogue comes out today (now Bonfire NIght is over) as it’s the official run up to Christmas. My daughter circles the things she likes and wakes up to a nice surprise on Christmas morning. As for me and the OH, we normally buy each other things we need rather than want, like new slippers, pjs, underwear, smellies, that kind of thing cos it’s mostly about the kids x
yes, I’m annoying and have nearly done it all! Sorry everyone!
no i havnt started yet but the kids have a list of what they would like
I have no idea what I am going to buy for anyone. I love to browse around online for ideas.
i have but still no idea what to get my hubby he keeps changing his mind
I buy throughout the year so have got most things.
I’ve started my shopping but haven’t got much yet. I know what 2 of my kids would like but I’ve no idea for the other 3.
I’ve not started my Christmas shopping yet, I always leave it till last minute and I always regret it.
I don’t even think about Christmas shopping until December. so I’ve no idea what I’m getting anyone yet!

I started my christmas shopping in October luckily I know what to buy family.

Most of it is done and dusted. Not listing anything though as my daughters follow your pages too.
Always start early & pick up stocking fillers throughout the year

Never mind I will do most of my Christmas shopping online. My family are pretty easy to shop for, My daughter is getting a new bike, clothes and a few little toys. The rest of my family will get some perfume/aftershave chocs!
