Re: christmas shopping
Hmmm, I seem to remember you wanted to celebrate the Christmas spirit about the 25th of November last year, now we are just into October!
Christmas and shopping? The second word has to be OFF!

Re: christmas shopping
Nope haven't started yet!! but I am gonna start next week!!
I always think " oh there is ages off yet, I'll be ok " then before you know it, it's the 20th december, the bills still need paying, the pressie list is still mounting, and the sleepless nights are threatening!! lol
Ahhhhh the joys of Christmas

Re: christmas shopping
I've bought one so far, a Tickle Me Elmo TX Limited Edition. Cost a bloody fortune but sooooo worth it. I'm going to get some bits next week. Still don't know what Harry's main present will be, i'm thinking about a drum kit but sending it to my Dads! So I don't have to put up with the noise.

Re: christmas shopping
Xmas shopping has become more tricky for me with having two boys aged 14 and other will be 16 Xmas day and they never seem to be able to decide what they want.
At least when they were younger you could decide what they were getting and they were happy with it. Even stocking fillers have become a nightmare and a lot more expensive too.
I usually start shopping after my birthday on 1st nov and try to have it done by end of Nov...but hasn't happened that way for about the past 3 or 4 years
I am definately with willow hate shopping when I don't know what I want to buy...feel like I am just aimlessly walking around shop after shop trying to get ideas!!!!
