Oh my god, Christmas shopping is oh so very near!!!! Eeeek
Well it is getting near that time again and I have just had panic thoughts mainly along the lines off ...
... "AARRRGGHHHHH, 2 and a half months till christmas and I haven't even thought of things to buy people, been out christmas shopping, and I have the one most awkward, most difficult person to buy a present for in the whole world!!!!" Sooo is anyone else having the same thoughts? Done any christmas shopping? Have we got any pre planned and organised shoppers here? Or are you all just christmas eve shoppers (all the blokes I presume!  )? I think I am going to have to buck my ideas up and get in the shops! Oh what a shame

I'll start thinking about it at the end of the month, might buy the odd thing if I see something perfect but otherwise I'll start shopping in November.
It's mainly thought that goes into it before hand and then go get it all in December

Bought quite a few pressies this week for Sarah and the family. One thing that I am hoping goes down well are the digital photoframes. Got a few of these for the Mum in Law and Mother. About £30.00 each delivered from eBuyer. I keep checking Hot UK Deals for other ideas and stocking fillers. I am hoping to have most if not all of the presents done when my bonus comes in October. That will just leave a special one I need to get for Sarah and Alexander to get in December. It's a little bit daft but it will make them smile when they open it

I'm still trying to pretend it doesn't exist.
Bought a few things though, mainly to take pressure off when it does get nearer as there'll be enough stress as it is.

Bought some things throughout the year when I see something someone will like - easier on the stress levels and the pocket that way.
