Santa - So, who else has not finished all their Christmas shopping yet??

So, who else has not finished all their Christmas shopping yet??

Last year I was frantically wrapping Christmas presents on Christmas day before meeting up with family for a BBQ lunch - LOL! I told myself last year that I would not do the same thing this year, that I would be prepared. I can see myself doing the same thing this year! It is hard. I run my own business and this time of year is very busy. I work longer hours than normal and although I buy the presents early I tend to put off wrapping them until the last minute. I was lucky to get all my Christmas cards out last week! LOL. I still have not put up our Christmas tree either... *grins* I can't be the only person that does this, can I? Now I know I am not alone! Thank you to all who have replied. I hope you manage to get things done for the day... I hope I manage to also! :) I wish you all a safe and merry Christmas and all the best in the new year.

i haven't even started, which is good obviously. but luckily my missus will be buying the family presents, i just got to get hers. whoot! go me. leaving things to the last minute lol
well i am broke and unemployed, thanks god that i dont have any kids yet.
Actually most of America hasnt. Studies prove that the two weeks before Christmas are the busiest shopping days of the year.
How is that i have not even startet yet lol
Well I'm not finished with all my gift shopping...I got like only one present so far..lol
Finished? I haven't even started. Why the rush?
Xmas has crept up on me. I had a dream that it's the 28th and I suddenly realize our whole family had plum forgot! Still no plans. Our friends group is big on gift cards, which I don't recommend. However, I did put up a fiber optic mini tree before Thanksgiving.
im not yet prepared for christmas yet. i still have to prepare lots of things like buying gifts and foods to be serve on Christmas etc...im planning to finish my preparation next week
me, haven't finished the tree, haven't started baking, and I need to start my shopping....this week we had a lot of snow and some ice, roads are not safe for traveling....week before children were sick, but if I don't get any of that stuff finished.....Christmas will still be wonderful because the older children are coming home this weekend and we will celebrate Christmas and the gift of Christ.
As I have had this same problem I will let you in on how I solved it Have your presents wrapped at the store. If you say that you don't have time when you get a hand full drop it off at the wrapping dept and continue shopping. In the end you will only have a few things to wrap! I also took things to my office and wraped as I talked on the phone! Merry Christmas
your not the only person who does this. last christmas i was very unprepared and was running around the shops on christmas eve getting the last few things that i needed. this year, its a different story. i've wrapped up alot of my presents so that i have some spare time to relax. my tip is that when you buy the presents and receive them, wrap them up before you go to bed. that way you'll have them all done by christmas day. good luck
I need too get my boyfriends, just dont have a clue what too get him hes got like nearly everything!!
i don't, my family didn't put up the tree till the 24th and didn't do shopping till the 22nd
I'm gonna do this as every year - last minute shopping and wrapping :P
I haven't even bought my cards yet!!! I always have to end up scribbling people's names on the cards :(
Christmas... CHRISTMAS!? Is that really the date???? Slam! (sound of footsteps running to town)
Not only am I not finished.I haven't even begun.It will be gift certificates.Also baked goodies so i still have some time left.
