Will you be buying a lot of Christmas presents this year?

I do not celebrate Christmas and even though I do normally get some presents I think I will just get some for the grandchildren this year and not for the adults.

I like giving presents however it seems to become more and more difficult to work out what to buy for adults as I do not like giving something a person possibly will not use.

Last year we donated to charities of our choice instead of giving presents

I agree, the adults I know, have everything so they are very hard to shop for. Most of my gifts are homemade.

Not really no. I've pretty much done my Christmas shopping, and I only buy for a few people, mostly my immediate family. The kids are getting mostly stuff they need for next year (clothes, educational stuff) as Christmas presents with just one or two toys and books.

I have already started to buy a few small things on line.
I also will be making a few, and have also started on that end.

Hate leaving it till I run out of time-and energy!

I have started to think about them because I like to get them out of the way. I haven't bought anything as yet because we haven't yet drawn names for K.K. So, no will not be buying as much as we have done in previous years.

I am a giver rather than a taker, and I do not need an excuse or occasion to give gifts.I will most likely only give gifts to my son and the little chldren in my life!

We will be making most of our Christmas gifts in the kitchen or craft room.

I usually do buy a lot of Christmas presents for family members - I enjoy giving presents. This is the first year that I will not be able to visit my family for Christmas and I am not looking forward to it

I am mostly done. My kids had some specific items they wanted and I have gradually bought them over the last few months. Most people on my list are getting homemade gifts.

No not many presents. My husband & I just buy each other something after Christmas, when we need it. We but our daughters lots of things, & of cause for our 2 little grand-daughters also. My mother is 93 & doesn’t need anything. if we're having Christmas with my 2 sisters, (every 2nd year,) we go KK. 1 year it was to buy something under $20, & the year before last it was a $30 food hamper. A much better idea, than the 1st time around!!! We buy the grand-daughters things we may find during the year.
