What pressies have you bought so far?

So far most of the kids just the a few bits to get and the stockings and 2 family memeber and some of dh's need to get 9 more family but were going shopping in the city at the end of the month so will get them all in one shop.

Everything, all done and dusted, going to start wrapping them all up soon.

All I do know is pick up little bits and bats/stocking fillers etc.

nearly all of them!

Ummmm still to get....

MiL (know what we are getting, needs to be closer to the time)
and DH

think thats IT!

Nothing.

Just starting to think about it now.

Any ideas? :)

Almost all of them, just the adults on DH's side to do (six of them but as three couples we tend to buy them joint presents). And DH but I know what he wants.

The boys' main presents and most of their stocking fillers.

MIL's stocking bits

Most of DH's stocking

Quite pleased with progress!!

Done 2 kids, 2 more kids and 8 adults to go. No idea what to get anyone. Will probably procrastinate til mid december and then get gift cards. I hate christmas shopping. Am very bah humbug about the whole thing. Never know what to tell anyone who asks me what I want. Wish presents were banned...

2 books for little nephew
bracelet for sister, necklace for sil (beautiful, I know someone who makes her own glass beads)
soft shirt for dh
book and dvd for brother
make-up kit thing for dd1

I'm doing alright. I never normally start this early.

Done 11 out of 13 kids
Done mum and Brother
Only 2 friends I buy for-Done
3 adult couples to buy for and I'm done

:o

All done today :o

Stockings for adults?

Really?

Yep - Dh and I always do each other a stocking, legacy from my parents always doing one for each other, and as MIL always stays with us Christmas Eve I think she would feel a bit left out if she didn't get one too. I love doing them.

As for presents being banned - they pretty much have for the adults in the family this year, on DH's side at least. We all picked one name and are buying only for that person, £30 limit. As it was pick a name from the hat, it has had hilarious consequences regarding who is buying for who. Should be funny to see what they get!

Pretty much all of it.

I still need to do my M&S order and stocking fillers for DS.

I started well, but hit a finacial hiccup so have had to stop . I have loads to still get, but already have

ds2's main present
dd2's main present
ds1's main present
dd1's bits and bobs
Christmas Eve pj's and dressing gowns
a few stocking bits

Have got loads still to get as dc's tend to get lots of small bits at Christmas.

Need to get more organised when i get paid!
