Anyone else in the 'I've bought sod all for Christmas' club

[BigJanette]

Just that.

Haven't even made a list yet, but have friends who have bought and wrapped everything!

Anyone else 😬

I'm in your camp !

Yes me, but I'm not worried.

Me neither.
We have a Christmas Savings account that's pays out in December so I never get anything before then .

It’s still early November, it’s barely on our horizon yet.
we don’t do a lot of presents now dd is grown up though.

I bought a packet of currents to make the cake. - I’ve not made the cake.

I bought two gifts this week. That's it. I don't even know what I am doing for Christmas yet.

This is me every year. This year I’ve decided this isn’t going to be me!

I’ve made lots of lists, started buying what I can food wise and freezing. Most of immediate family presents bought. I feel so much better about it.

Just need to remember to wrap it all before Christmas Eve… I always seem to leave it last minute!

It's still early November... I haven't even thought about it

Yes cos it’s multiple weeks away and I have more important/interesting things to be doing with my life than worrying about making a roast lunch and wrapping some presents 😂

Nothing. It’s the what to buy that’s the problem.

We have November birthdays first. Dc are asking for one high value item that will take their whole budget but not sure they really understand that. So in reality not much to buy and wrap.

Yes. Christmas is about three days max if you count Boxing Day and Christmas Eve.
It’s a consumerist festival and while I will enjoy festivities, it will be for a short time and about hanging out with family.

I asked the DC’s what they want for Christmas last night and made some notes. Mainly because DC1 was home from uni for a reading week and is going back this morning so I won’t see him until Christmas.
They both want some electricals that I can get cheaper on Amazon in November. But apart from that, I’ll be buying the rest for them and everyone else in early December. It feels far too early to be buying presents.
Thankfully a lot less to buy this year due to being single so it won’t take a lot of planning.

I think this is quite a big group?

Maybe I don't count, just realised I preordered my food the other evening.

And only did that as things start to sell out.

I just remembered I actually bought a bottle of M&S Winter Berry spritz yesterday to try out.
Does that count?

Not started. I have an older DC with a birthday on Monday and I’m not quite finished sorting stuff for that yet. Christmas organising can’t begin until after their b.day.

Same.

I was away at the end of October and then a close friend died. So I'm a bit behind where Christmas is concerned. I need to sort myself and get into gear. I've bought a few bits to send to a friend in Australia, but that's about it. I'll get there though. I always do.

Yes me, other than a set of little penguins and no idea what I'm going to do with them

Yep! I haven’t bought a thing, I have no intention of buying much if anything either.
I hate Christmas, the commercialisation and the ridiculous amount of money spent largely on tat.
And I’m much happier for it.
I will send the DGCs money and that will be it.

Me but I've never bought anything yet. For me Christmas shopping is something done when it's actually nearly Christmas. But then I am very fortunate that I can afford to do it like that, I know.

@RememberBeKindWithKaren so cute.

I did buy a decoration recently as was on a city break.

Haven't considered it to be a problem tbh.
