'Have you done your Christmas shopping yet?' poll

XRAT

This year I've bought nothing, usually I pick up all that is needed for next year but over the years I think that I have enough to cover next year too.
As the credit crunch takes effect I am finding that I'm working longer, and doing more DIY for myself. I have little time left to go to the shops and the effect is...., I'm spending a lot less just by not visiting the shops! Who'd have thought it???

Not bought anything for Christmas 2012.

I make my own Christmas cards, made tags from this year's cards and have loads of wrapping left that I bought for Christmas 2010.

Have put aside some of our "unwanted" gifts and chocs (those with long dates anyway) to regift as birthday/mothering Sunday/anniversary gifts.

You just know what can happen between now and Christmas - people (especially kids) will want/like different things by December and unfortunately some people may not be part of your life by then (fall-outs, death etc.) Depressing thought but true...
