When do you start buying your Christmas gifts?

I start in begin of December till wast moment. I don't understand why someone not buy gifts, have so many options for non commercial gifts- like handmade gift or gifts that donate for good causes, most organization have it, like Born free or WWF.

I'm done by Halloween mostly. There are just times where I want to get it out of the way. Granted, I'm not getting too many gifts for people this year. Whoever didn't tell me what they needed is getting money. That's just the way things work. I'm on a time table, I don't like being out in the holiday season with all of the insanity, brawling with people over the last of a certain type of electronic. Granted, I do most of my shopping online, but still I like to get it done most of the time rather early. If something gets placed on back order or something along those lines. That can really inflame my nerves to an absurd degree to say the very least. Christmas gifts are to be bought rather early. I got that tradition from my parents and it's carried on.

I always say I am going to start in July so I can have my stuff finished before the Christmas rush but I never do. I haven't started buying before November before. I am also usually out on Christmas Eve getting the last minute stuff too. I went to Walmart at 4am this past Christmas Eve. That is the earliest I have ever been but I managed to beat the rush and get the stuff I needed.

I don't buy Christmas gifts. I give cash to my loved ones, put it in an envelope with a Christmas message which I personally make, instead of a Christmas card. With the cash, they will be able to get whatever it is that they want. I cook something special, too. Have a peaceful, meaningful and joyous Christmas, ygna.

I started to buy my Christmas gift this week.Christmas is drawing near and the sales on the street also seems becoming near.The atmosphere seems make people feel warm though it is winter now.lol,i love Christmas and i will have my new start after this.lol

Never. I don't buy Christmas gifts. I never did and I will never do. I don't see the reason why you should give presents at Christmas. Christmas was officially the celebration of "light in the dark", the longest night. Long before the christians came. Also the christmastrees with candles stands symbol for that. But the presents, Santa Claus it beats me where they come from. I can understand the being together, cosy candle nights, some food to keep you warm (nuts, chocolate, fruit) during those days but the rest? A big no.

I finished all of my Christmas shopping in October this year, because I got a big payment at the beginning of the month and decided that I should get all of it done while I had the money to be able to do so. I don't normally do it that early but I thought that it might be a good idea while I had the money to be able to at that point. I am very glad that I have got all of it sorted now, because it's meant that I can have more time to wrap the things and also to stay nice and relaxed about everything that I need to do to get ready for Christmas Day.

I do buy some last month when a mall had a mall wide sale.I do bought some stuffs for my family and of course for me.I still buy some for my friends and godchildren in this coming days.

I usually buy a month earlier but now that I'm being very busy at what I'm doing, I'm planning to buy two weeks before the celebration. It's fun giving and getting presents at holidays!
