Usually Christmas eve (seriously)

The week before I go into a mad panic, because no matter how hard I try I never have any money til then! SO usually it winds up christmas eve. it's great fun though, because it's all these guys who are panicking too because they never shop before christmas eve!

I start right after christmas and do so all year.

Sometimes I buy gifts more than 6 months in advance if I see something I think would be a good gift at a good price.

Christmas Eve

I am just waiting for my wife to return from Australia and then we would decide the date to pick up some things for our grandchildren. Perhaps my wife may have done the little shopping in Australia and so that's it.

I generally buy all through the year and put away, so I don't do "Christmas Shopping." I only buy for the kids in the family for the most part. My family stopped the buying for everyone. It takes away from the joyous season. And we've started giving our gifts on New Years rather than Christmas. We reserve that time for real Christmas activities.
-
Usually right after Thanksgiving.
-
23rd December... I will still be doing it on the 24th (unless I need to pre-order something, or buy something online when it could be much earlier).

It usually co-incides with my December payday!

My Christmas shopping will begin 20th November, pay day :) Plenty of time to get things for everybody!

The year before when I visit second hand shops.

December 26th last year... just kidding.

No not yet. I usually start it the first week of December.

I usually buy a couple of things throughout the year but finish the bulk of my shopping in November when I'm finishing off who/what's going on my list. There always seems like there's one gift that doesn't get bought until December 22, the oh crud I can't believe I forgot ..... present.

G'day Norman, Thank you for your question. Generally in November. Hopefully it goes more smoothly than this. Regards
