Oh, my goodness, but you're making me CRY! lol It feels so good to get that out of the way! I used to have all my shopping done by the first of October, but it's been a very long time since that happened, mostly when our two daughters were young. Now we have 11 grandkids too, including our granddaughter-in-law! Sometimes just figuring out what to get any of them is overwhelming, since they all seem to change likes and dislikes so often.

I keep a box in a closet that I put future presents in. If they are for a specific person, then I will put their name on it. Otherwise, I just buy and save it. Then at holidays I just shop from the box. Also great for last minute items also.

That's great! I'm so jealous! I start buying mine the day after Christmas for the next year. I actually started making a Christmas quilt this week. That's early for me!

I always hide them where I'm sure not to lose them and then do Honey buns usually finds them and asks me about my Christmas stash and can he look.
