I have already bought some presents for Christmas and today I bought some more. I only bought books online today, it is always a good present I think, one book for each one of my kids and another one for a friend. My kids always ask for Legos but it is a little expensive here, even though I will buy it by the end of this month as there will be promotions. Have you had already started your Christmas shopping?

I bought books for me, then I will buy something for my husband. We only exchange a few little things, just for the tradition.

I think books are a great gift but maybe that's because I like reading.

I like to read and as I like to receive books, I always think that others also like books.

It's good to get an early start before the Christmas rush happens. I've only gotten my granddaughter and great-grandchildren taken care of, and my daughter who moved to Texas. I only have my younger son and grandson as my older son wants nothing to do with me.

Hmmm.. Books and Lego. Me and your kids can be buddy since I love both It's a good choice to give some one book as present - especially if they are a reader. Do you like to read as well?

It is good buying things early, this way we find good deals and don't get stressed near Christmas.

Giving books to others as a gift is a good idea.

If you don't have many presents to buy, you still have time.

Children always prefer things instead of money, but money is a better present

It's always nice to buy gifts for your family. We celebrate Christmas on January 7th so there is still time for gifts.
