I started in July 2019 (Christmas In July) and I have finished 3 sons, 1 daughter in law, all co workers (45 $5.00 Starbucks cards), family and friends and 1 secret Santa gift.
I also have 4 family December birthdays that I've bought for.
I just have my grandaughter left,,,I plan to have a chat about 2-3 weeks before Christmas about her *wish* list.
Last year I just feel like nothing I got her was what she wanted or needed.
I have purchased reusable christmas bags (handmade from Etsy) for wrapping and packaging. Everything is paid for ,,NO Christmas debt this year!!!
This year will be about giving needed, useful ,and consumable items.
I plan to do a Christmas food shop and donate it to our local food bank.
I have one quick craft to make that I will add gift cards to (already purchased).
Hand scrub in a jar (I bought some cute Amber Mason Jars in the summer) .

I am just one of those people that hates shopping in the winter weather.
Wishing everyone a great start to their early Christmas shopping.
