I had part of mine done 2 days after Last Christmas. I sent that package off at the beginning of this month. I have most of mine already done ~ just a few minor gifts for my boys left to get.

Wow, that's great. You are really on top of things! I usually have some presents left over from Christmas and other holidays (my overspending problem) but for some reason, I don't have that many presents in reserve this year! :( Thanks for the response (and the reminder about the +s!)

Started shopping for my kids months ago. I scour the Internet for great deals, have it shipped to my door, and hide it all!

This is an awesome idea... i belong to another board and there is one lady who scours amazon for great deals and then post the links... I was able to get my 11 year old son almost done for less than $50 because of the great deals....

I decided that I would like to get an early start this year. I started buying about a month ago. I really hate the crowded stores so I'm going to try to avoid them this year. So far I have bought quite a few presents and found some great deals on them.

Thanks for the reply. That's great you started so early! Did you find your great deals online or in the stores? I have a treasure trove of gifts for my fiance (of games and stuff) that I get off ebay that I just grab a couple of little things from every holiday (Christmas, Vday, birthday, anniversary) and add a couple of new things to...but everyone else I have to start from scratch every year! :(

I started Christmas shopping earlier this month. I usually like to get a good head start on my shopping before the holiday season hits. I can't stand last minute shopping and big crowds.

I know, the crowds are overwhelming!! And I can never find any parking spots. My problem is that I can never get people to tell me what they want early! (I can do the great idea/spur of the minute gifts any time, but the lists are hard for me to get!)

I always have a hard time getting my husband to tell me what he wants for his birthday or Christmas. I usually try to make a mental note of anything he mentions that he would like to have, even if it's months in advance. I usually need all of the help I can get with him!

We have a couple of gifts for our daughter already but haven't really started Christmas shopping yet. We had too many other expenses that needed to be addressed first.

I've picked up a few things here and there for my grandbabies when I've seen something especially cute, but I haven't bought anything for anyone else yet. It feels too early!
