I've started!

[taggy321]

I've finally made a start on my Xmas shopping having ordered a pair of Crocs each for my mum and dad.

I'm normally half done by now but held off this year. How is everyone else doing?

Wrapped?????? Holy moly!!

I am almost done. Need one thing in the black Friday sale and have a few friends left that we're waiting until December but I know exactly what to get and from where so mentally I feel done.

Now thinking I should get wrapping 😂 I worry that the paper and trimmings would get trashed between now and December if I started wrapping now.

Which 3d pen! I missed this!

Stockings done for DD.

Main gift for DD2 done.

After half term I will make final decision for the kids. I want everything bought and wrapped before December this year.

One present bought and wrapped. I don’t have many to buy. It’s DD’s 22nd birthday on the 29th of November but still I certainly won’t need to be buying lots of things.
I’ve got a good idea of what I will be getting for most people. I can understand people starting early if they have a lot to get but it’s not my cup of tea. The lights going up in town is my cue to get things really going.

Half price from Smyths - £14.99! Got them one each, arrived really quickly too.

Thank you!

I made a big dent in it today! All that's left is about 6 bits for DC, a pack of Christmas cards and DH who I am stumped on.

Couple of last few bits to sort but the lion share is all done. Only wrapped the in laws gifta as we visited this weekend so took them up as won't see them at Christmas and will save postage. I like to be done by mid November on the shopping front but enjoy wrapping in December with some Christmas music/movie on and the lights etc, all part of getting me in the mood.

Another two gifts sorted. A Guinea pig mug for DD and the Private Eye Annual for DH.
I’m pretty sure I know what I’m getting for everyone and I haven’t got that much to get.

I've still not got a clue what to get DH
