I've finally finished my Christmas shopping so now I can spend the next 4 weeks buying silly little bits I see in shops that nobody needs or wants Grin 🎅🏻

Congratulations!!! I'll be joining you soon, a trip to town Thursday and that'll be me done. Haven't wrapped a single gift or put the tree up yet tho.

UtterlyUnimaginativeUsername · 26/11/2021 10:13

Well done! I am too. It's so restful Xmas Grin

ChristmasTreeBee · 26/11/2021 10:59

Last few bits arriving over the weekend them I am done…

Wrapping starts tomorrow night when the kids are in bed.

I feel decidedly good about it all I don’t think I have much left to do.

Christmas hamper from the butcher ordered
Christmas food shop for collection on the 23rd 🤞🏻

Those Christmas novelty bits are so hard to resist! I've not got much left to get so I can use my Dec money to buy food. I booked a click and collect slot at Aldi yesterday.

Noimaginationforaun · 26/11/2021 11:24

Apart from a bottle of whiskey, me too! So now December pay is just for the food! Excited for December to be about putting up the decorations, wrapping presents and eating food!

Justmuddlingalong · 26/11/2021 11:27

It's a great feeling isn't it? I'm all done, wrapped and bagged...and relax.😌

gamerchick · 26/11/2021 11:29

Yeah, until the twitch hits. Grin I try to leave a couple of things until the last minute, to thwart it a bit.

RJnomore1 · 26/11/2021 11:38

I’ll be picking up maltesers and ordering a bottle of mezcal today and that’s me.

I need to get wireless head phones too but that’s for my daughters birthday on 27tg December so doesn’t count

TurnUpTurnip · 26/11/2021 11:40

I wish I was done 😫

SmallProvincial · 26/11/2021 12:05

I think I'm done, but I need to get everything out of the various stashing spots (hopefully remembering them) and lay them out to be sure. It's plausible I've got WILD, or gone... MILD as I've been buying bits and pieces for what feels like months.

Largethighsbadeyes · 26/11/2021 12:12

Not even close to done! Luckily I've got 2 Christmas markets this weekend though so hoping to pick up some nice things

I do love a Christmas market

😊🎄

Bubble54 · 26/11/2021 13:06

I've got a few things left to get for my PIL then I'm done too 😊 I go so quickly between being bored or too busy so I prefer to be finished with buying sooner rather than later... Putting the decorations up tomorrow then I'll be writing Christmas cards and wrapping by the light of the tree🎄🌟😊

AperolWhore · 26/11/2021 13:14

Meeeee too! All presents are bought and wrapped, the house is trimmed up and we are collecting the real tree on Saturday. All my online food shops are ordered including the Christmas one and I’m going to enjoy December doing Christmassy things and relaxing 😌

maofteens · 26/11/2021 13:16

I'm done with my son. I need my daughter to get specific - I've got her a cashmere jumper and a few smaller bits but she has yet to tell me her main gift.
I know what I'm getting my stepsons and in laws, which makes me feel I'm done with them too!
All the new decs have arrived (new house) and I want to get them out of the boxes and up but can't bring myself to until Dec 1!
Food all ordered as well - Tesco in SW London had plenty of slots yesterday.

Nidan2Sandan · 26/11/2021 13:20

I was done for the kids, then found a fab gift I knew my eldest would love. So now i have to find something else for the other two to even it up.

Havent even started DH yet.

Frymetothemoon · 26/11/2021 13:23

At the rate I'm going, no-one is getting anything from me...

17caterpillars1mouse · 26/11/2021 13:42

I've finished too and it's all wrapped other than 4 presents I'm still waiting to arrive

DH hasn't started his yet lol

Hetyanni · 26/11/2021 14:14

I'm done too! All wrapped apart from the couple of bits still to arrive in the post. I'm wrapping as I go. I've got a turkey, duck and dessert in the freezer and a stash of Christmas chocolate in the cupboard. Just need to book my supermarket slot and pick up a few more food and booze bits. Really looking forward to enjoying December with it all done! Xx

PizzaCrust · 26/11/2021 14:28

Well done! I’ve my kids completely sorted so just bits and pieces to buy now. So glad to get the bulk done before December, can take it easy now Smile

OhGiveUp · 26/11/2021 14:36

Well done all of you who've managed it. Put your feet up with a cuppa and a mince pie 😁
I'm just waiting for a couple of bits to arrive from online shopping.
I suppose you could say in theory that I've finished it........

foxgoosefinch · 26/11/2021 14:52

I think I’m nearly done! Have to sort out my cards and maybe some extra bits and pieces if I see something I like, but overall I think I have pretty much everything. Phew.

Lovemusic33 · 26/11/2021 14:53

Same, I already twitched today and bought dd2 the new David wallliams book 😬😬, I really have finished.

Agadorsparticus · 26/11/2021 17:08

Mostly done. Still got a few to buy for but fairly straightforward. All I have is wrapped. Still have cards to do but that is because we are moving house in the next few weeks, I'd like to include our new address in the cards when we have a date.

User5252727 · 26/11/2021 18:20

Me too! It's such a weight off my mind.
