Who has started Christmas shopping already?

Iain

It is just over 7 weeks until Christmas so it seems a good time for those of us who are disorganised to start planning and avoid the anxiety of last minute purchases.

Who has got their present / card purchases all sorted out?

Who is struggling for ideas?

I though this could be a good prompt to get people thinking ahead and working through some of the struggles for decisions on purchases to make the whole thing a bit easier this year.

I've got my main present sorted out and am working out what to get for the other 4 people on my list. Cards I'll be picking up this week (with a few spares just in case) and will soon be sending my international cards as well as they seem to take forever.

How about you?

  • Hi I'm new here. My name is Maggie, I'm autistic.

    7 weeks until Christmas? Yikes! Can't believe how fast this year has gone. Congrats for starting your Christmas shopping. I've been meaning to but haven't gotten round to it yet, I've been at home writing mostly though I'm intent on going out tomorrow. So maybe I'll begin then.

    I have a good idea what I want to buy. Bath bombs for my Mum. Tools for my Dad. LEGO for my sister and my brother is into Doctor Who so I'm hoping to get him a Doctor Who sonic screwdriver toy/model.

    I've managed to get Christmas cards already - traditional ones with Santa on them and a red post box in snow with a robin sat on it. I like traditional cards and always try to get them if I can.
