Is there anyone who hasn’t started Christmas shopping for presents?

Me.

I have 3 dc and 7 other family members to buy for. Not bought a bean yet.

I know what to get though. I'll probably start next week.

Three or four evenings online ticking off lists. Then a day in town buying stocking fillers, wrapping paper, cards etc. Then a couple of mad days of deliveries. Then a sort out, calibrate and write a final list day. Then one more day of online/Town shopping to mop up anything I'm missing.

Takes max of about 10 days start to finish.

Me, I’m really stuck for ideas 😢

Me.
Lots of birthdays in November, so I don't like them to overlap.

Me. I don't have much to buy. My teens are easy and I do want, read, wear, need plus stockings.
Mum insists I don't buy her anything.
I do have to buy something for my niece though.

&romany4 Flowers so sorry

Never start until December. Like some PPs, birthdays in November take priority.
Fewer to buy this year anyway. Having told DH that if he wanted presents for his siblings, their partners and adult DCs then it was entirely up to him to sort. Amazingly he managed to negotiate no presents with them I'd been suggesting it for a number of years

Me. I never start until December. Make sure all bought or ordered by 14th Dec. That's two weeks to get everything, really not a struggle.
