I have, I know, I know - I don't like the way ppl are gearing up for xmas months before but I hate shopping when the shops are totally packed from mid December onwards...but then that means I have to start shopping early so I can avoid the crowds....but then that adds to the early Christmassyness of the shops, aaargh! So really the shops force us to shop early!
And I've been buying stuff on eBay and online shops, cos you have to buy it at least 3 weeks b4 Xmas to guarantee it'll be there in time what with unreliable royal mail etc.

Yup, I started around two weeks ago and I'm almost done. I work in a mall so it's easier for me, I guess.

Wow, sounds like you are busy. I always do my shopping in the last minute. I know, it's bad but I am very busy.............doing nothing most of the times.

Started and finished. Ive got enough to think about at xmas without the hassle of shopping too.
Kids xmas concerts, then kids off school and having to re-arrange shofts at work to cover childminding, having to work extra, parties, after-work drinks with management, Sorting out all the xmas food shop, I dont get the time I need to do it all so i shop for xmas through the year, a lot less stress, plus it makes it easier on the purse.

Yes, I have. On a different topic, it really irritates me to see the word Xmas. That is like crossing the Christ out of Christmas . Originally, we were supposed to celebrate his birthday then but everyone has turned it into a materialistic holiday. Just something to think about.
