I've been looking at Christmas sweets and chocolate. I'll start buying gifts soon and pick up small grocery items as I spot them in Supermarkets. I hate doing big shops.

It's taken us a while but what my family do for Christmas is enjoy our time together. No wasting money on profit driven companies and desires, just to try to be together, considering we are a family of shift workers and distance.

Amongst us are Jews and atheists but it's a time for family.

I can't stand Xmas

Rammed down our throats for months.

Too much stress, makes people angry when they're shopping.

I've got absolutely no present ideas yet because I've got three family birthdays first.

But I do have a nice hotel booked for my office Christmas party

Problem with bubuying early the is sales start in December!

I like to be organised, but last couple of years I could have saved £100+ quid on the stuff for kids and family just by waiting until December.

I might fight the urge and wait this year!

little house on the praire

In later years I've decided to buy people what they want when they want it, I still give people I buy smaller presents for at Christmas, but I tend to get theatre tickets, concert tickets or big stuff as and when.

I've just bought the kids a tumble dryer for Christmas and they could do with it now so they've got it now
