early november

I usually pick a few things up here and there. But I do most of it right after Thanksgiving when everything goes on sale.


aero_girl97 on 25 September, 2007 at 1:46 am #

If I’m out, and something like: >BAM< it hits me, then I will be like “OMG ____ would love that!” Then I will buy it.
But mostly all of my shopping is on Black Friday (good deals, good deals!!)


Sam;*Sports Fan* on 25 September, 2007 at 1:19 pm #

Early November or maybe earlier than that coz the prices are still low and whenever I find something “inexpensive” and nice

In two weeks, I’m going to my cousin’s for the weekend. I do this every year and she has a huge mall near here. I will try to get some of my christmas shopping done then. I can’t wait til the last minute.

Generally October 29th. After I’ve cashed my birthday checks from the day before, I go out and spend it all on my amazing friends and family (:

One would think it would be terrible to spend all your birthday money on others, but it really just makes me happy :)

lol pretty much a week or so before Christmas. Just because In my family we we’re never brought up celebrating holidays (part of my moms side does Christmas the other half Hanukkah and on my dads side Hanukkah so it’s totally split up). When my grandmother was still alive on my dads side we used to go there and it was the best thing ever, but after she died in 2002 we haven’t done Hanukkah or Christmas (well we only did Christmas one year but that’s it) We still did high holidays for my grandfather because he was religious but he died this summer so goodbye all holidays. lol

^ lol my life story

like a week or two before Christmas I go buy something for my best friend, and that’s my Christmas shopping.


jushoney on 30 September, 2007 at 12:09 pm #

I normally shop during the year if I find nice things or sales. So I normally start after Christmas is over looking for presents for next Christmas.


♥gb♥ on 3 October, 2007 at 10:01 pm #

NOW!!!!! I START NOW!!!!!!


Scooter_the_fat_cat on 6 October, 2007 at 5:40 am #

I try my best to do it after thanksgiving but i always end up doing it about a week or so before Christmas lol!


Blue-♥-Berry on 9 October, 2007 at 8:54 am #

Actually, I think I’m just going to save myself some money and bake something this year… Though haven’t planned that out yet.


billy billabong on 12 October, 2007 at 1:44 am #

in the january sales.


Momma of 3 Beach Babies! on 14 October, 2007 at 5:11 pm #

I start in October, usually. I find some really good deals this early, they actually have super deals at this point in the year. Then, I go the day after Thanksgiving and find lots of good deals.


Jerry S on 16 October, 2007 at 9:56 pm #

i start x-mas shopping about the same time you do, after
thanksgiving.


Mr. Wisdom on 19 October, 2007 at 9:48 pm #

Early October is the new early November for me ha ha :)
No, I’m a liar. I’m one of those idiots that do those last-minute shopping the DAY before Christmas. Sometimes on Christmas morning, if the stores are opened…


CO will be blue in November! on 21 October, 2007 at 12:25 am #

Shoot I’m almost done. I don’t like the crowds.


Haley ♥'s her contacts on 22 October, 2007 at 9:27 pm #

I’ve already started actually! I’ll use any excuse just to go out shopping! lol


Jenn Brewers Girl on 25 October, 2007 at 11:27 pm #

Greta, oh no! You just made me stress. I need to get moving. I usually start about this time-ugh, that’s where my money goes every year.

I attempt the shopping after Thanksgiving every year in Green Bay and end up looking like a mad woman after a few hours of that. Darn those deals, and the horrible lines to get them.


Tyler B on 29 October, 2007 at 2:12 am #

wwwwwwwwwwwwhhhhhhhhhheeeeeeeeee!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


Heidi ♥'s Perfect Symmetry on 29 October, 2007 at 4:23 pm #

Usually right after Halloween. But I do get a lot on Black Friday, lol.

November 2nd


SomeoneWhoNeedsAnswers on 1 November, 2007 at 2:18 am #

Walmart 3AM on Christmas Eve


mykatesmom on 1 November, 2007 at 6:49 am #

Usually around the middle of October, and I get about 75% of it done by Halloween. Then I finish up on Thanksgiving weekend.


Joonya Papi (Mike J) on 1 November, 2007 at 9:50 pm #

well im 15 so i don’t really do a lot of it haha

but i get my cousins, parents and brothers and sisters things for christmas.

so i usually start pretty late lol. like the 20th of December


♥SadieJ♥ on 2 November, 2007 at 6:19 pm #

I do the exact same thing. It just makes since.


† Rainbow Jo Eckstein '76 on 5 November, 2007 at 3:42 pm #

I prefer to do it after Thanksgiving so if something happens I must return the gifts, I’m not stuck with not being able to return them since that places usually only allow you 30 days to make a return ( though some places can be less than that). And I find it easier to shop in stores because if you have to return something, you have a hard time to impossible time trying to do it online.


Kate on 5 November, 2007 at 4:44 pm #

my family does ours all year round, whenever we see something on sale or just something we know someone will love


crazychick on 8 November, 2007 at 9:20 pm #

I’m 13 so i only buy presents for my brother and parents…. I usually start looking around this time of year….. But i don’t really have to worry about my brothers present, for him i always just sneak in to his room and grab his fav tee or 50 bucks out of his drawer, He goes crazy looking for the stuff and then he opens up a box on christmas to find his missing stuff lols:D……


stacy a on 9 November, 2007 at 8:53 am #

The day after Christmas the previous year. I also shop on Thanksgiving day and the day after.


bambam.kaboosh on 11 November, 2007 at 11:14 am #

lol


B.T on 14 November, 2007 at 9:29 pm #

Early December!


kaith_pasamba on 15 November, 2007 at 4:56 pm #

I actually start just befor christmas eve


luvchoclat on 17 November, 2007 at 12:27 am #

I’ve never started before Black Friday. Some years I start as late as around Dec. 10.

I do as much as possible online or at Wal-Mart or Target.

This year our family is on a tighter budget and a cash basis. The online orders will be on credit cards, so I plan to start my online shopping earlier in November so that I can have it paid by Christmas. In past years, I was still paying for Christmas in January.


Dar-E-O on 20 November, 2007 at 12:21 pm #

like a week before christmas, i know its the worst time to get them, but i always seem to get good stuff ^_^


joseja25 on 22 November, 2007 at 4:46 pm #

simple3d on 25 November, 2007 at 11:04 am #

rune caper on 27 November, 2007 at 10:41 pm #

roadkill ☠ on 29 November, 2007 at 11:30 pm #

We are almost done this year….. we actually bought some gifts (niece & nephew) last January when the stuff went on sale


Tiffany S on 2 December, 2007 at 5:00 pm #

I am starting right now because time goes by so fast this time of the year. I am doing all my shopping this year on yomili.com to find the lowest prices due to the current economy.


**Mrs. Absentminded** on 3 December, 2007 at 9:46 pm #

Before last year, I was a last minute shopper. (I mean…the week before). Last year and this year, I started in mid October.


reshmi on 5 December, 2007 at 1:50 am #

throughout the year or first week of December


Feline05 on 6 December, 2007 at 6:32 am #

This year will be a small (very small) family gathering. So I have been doing shopping off and on since January. I just really wish this holiday would just go away…… :( sorry :(


fudge937 on 6 December, 2007 at 8:09 pm #

I start Christmas shopping on the first day of December.


fieldhockey_queen16 on 10 December, 2007 at 4:05 am #

I’m just like you.. My christmas shopping starts with Black Friday deals… and i continue to shop from there


i ♥ the PHiLLiES ☮ on 11 December, 2007 at 12:30 pm #

ealry november


Ruth F on 12 December, 2007 at 3:10 pm #

I would go Christmas shopping on like December 2nd so you dont have to go through tough crowds and when you fianally there is no more people there will be nothing good to buy.So this is why i tell you to go on that date.


gherkina on 13 December, 2007 at 10:10 pm #

I usually start thinking of ideas in the summer and then start buying in September/October. If you know what you’re looking for, you can always be on the lookout for a good deal and not end up paying a high price just because it’s advertised as “on sale.” I do a lot of comparison shopping via the internet and regular stores so I can feel confident about getting a good deal.

…but in the end, I always end up running around for something at the last minute anyway. ;-)
