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've never heard anyone say happy holidays or seen it written anywhere in England |

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! |

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 |
