Post subject: Christmas Shoping - How Do you Do It? | |
|
Normally my parents brought everything and we got in under the Tree on Christmas Day(Remember Hardly Sleeping Christmas Eve as a Kid).
This Year we are just buying stuff and keeping it straight away and calling it our Christmas Presents. Getting the Collingwood 2007 Season Preview Next Week this way
How do you do it? _________________ I am Da Man |

I budget a certain amount for each person.
Then promptly spend double the budget.
Such is the allure of bright shiny things. |

I don't do Christmas shopping, I rely on Santa to deliver the goods and just leave out the stubby and some cheese and bikkies for him. _________________ Every dead body on Mt Everest was once a highly motivated person, so maybe just calm the **** down. |

I buy things during the year & put them aside, thus avoiding the madness that is last minute Christmas shopping.

Do it during the year, mostly on line, unless I'm somewhere foreign. As gifts, I prefer people give 'me' http://www.sendacow.org.uk/ or some such.... |

We go the Cringle routine every year.
Each of us buys for a different family member each year, with a limit of at least $50. _________________ Whale
