I was able to get 4 presents out if the way. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-started-your-christmas-shopping-yet/page/2#post-1194459 Mon, 04 Nov 2013 09:45:34 +0000 LuLu Mom 1194459@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes, I got some done yesteday. LO got a present and her BFF got the same thing (B. Toys Musical drum set.) And I got my Goddaughter a North Face fleece as well. I have my lists all made out, so I'm just goign to pick up items here and there when they go on sale. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-started-your-christmas-shopping-yet#post-1194411 Mon, 04 Nov 2013 09:21:54 +0000 looch 1194411@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I don't have a lot of people to buy for, so not yet!</p> <p>My husband and I are not exchanging this year again, so we just need a few things here and there for other people. My aunt/godmother is the most difficult for me to buy for. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-started-your-christmas-shopping-yet#post-1194407 Mon, 04 Nov 2013 09:19:47 +0000 blackbird 1194407@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Ugh, nope :( </p> <p>I always buy online, though.

But I weird like that!

But for some reason, I'm not as stressed about it this year. Since I'm now staying home, we decided to cut our gift budget pp in half. Alls good with me :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-started-your-christmas-shopping-yet#post-1193465 Sun, 03 Nov 2013 11:13:54 +0000 Mrs Hedgehog 1193465@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yep.

I have no idea what all the kids want except for my SD wants a scooter. My son is overloading his list with video games and whatever the newest playstation is, he will be disappointed Christmas morning ;) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-started-your-christmas-shopping-yet#post-1192380 Sat, 02 Nov 2013 12:02:00 +0000 Mrs. Pickle 1192380@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I've bought one gift so far.

Not yet. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-started-your-christmas-shopping-yet#post-1192250 Sat, 02 Nov 2013 10:07:01 +0000 Cole 1192250@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I am totally stumped this year! I really want to start shopping but I can't decide what to get anyone! We do secret santa for my side so I can't really start until they pick names which will be Thanksgiving. I feel like for my husbands side we just buy variations on a theme every year, no one does clothes and his dad and brothers are the types that just buy the few things they want. We are headed out today though so fingers crossed we find some good options! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-started-your-christmas-shopping-yet#post-1192058 Sat, 02 Nov 2013 07:02:45 +0000 Mrs. Jump Rope 1192058@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Just browsing so far! I was actually surprised that we got a target and TRU catalog in the mail this week! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-started-your-christmas-shopping-yet#post-1192040 Sat, 02 Nov 2013 06:37:41 +0000 honeybear 1192040@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm done, except for my husband's gift. He's so hard to give things to! I have a running list that I work on starting in the summer in order to find deals, and I don't really have a lot of gifts to buy because we mostly don't exchange gifts with the adults in our family beyond photos. I have my stash for Toys for Tots ready to go. I just buy multiples of what I get my son. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-started-your-christmas-shopping-yet#post-1192038 Sat, 02 Nov 2013 06:37:17 +0000 swedishfish 1192038@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Pen: @Arden: I usually have my budgets set by September but DH is being obstinate this year. Ha. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-started-your-christmas-shopping-yet#post-1192036 Sat, 02 Nov 2013 06:08:35 +0000 HLK208 1192036@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Just a few small gifts. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-started-your-christmas-shopping-yet#post-1192031 Sat, 02 Nov 2013 06:02:53 +0000 Bookish 1192031@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes! I have ideas for all the presents, and am slowly starting to buy them. My Stepmom, one nephew, one niece, and nearly a few others are done. I plan on finishing a few more up this weekend! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-started-your-christmas-shopping-yet#post-1192014 Sat, 02 Nov 2013 05:21:52 +0000 BananaPancakes 1192014@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I've just started making idea lists. We drew names this week for my husband's family since we do secret Santa, but I haven't gotten much further than that. I like to get ideas then wait for sales, anyways. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-started-your-christmas-shopping-yet#post-1191886 Fri, 01 Nov 2013 21:19:22 +0000 Arden 1191886@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Pen: We set our budget for the holidays back in August. Heh, is my crazy showing? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-started-your-christmas-shopping-yet#post-1191873 Fri, 01 Nov 2013 21:12:02 +0000 MrsStar 1191873@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yup, almost finished shopping for LO, and know what I'll be getting dh and my mum. Still need to get another present for my nephew and need to sort out the secret santa names for dh's family so I know who I need to buy for. I'm hoping to get it done reasonably soon. Even have some of LO's gifts wrapped up already. </p>
