I start my chirstmas shopping on January 1st and don't stop until Christmas eve. My closet is about half full of net years gits. I don't go out looking for stuff, but as I do find things I buy them and put them back. I have pj's for everyone, lots of jewelry items for my dds and nieces. I have a variety of toys for the grandkids (my kids are too old for toys). I have a good variety of bath and makeup sets. Near November I go through it all, decide who gets what and write down what I have to buy to fill in the gaps. The one exception is my kids each get one big gift that I decide upon closer to christmas to make sure it is something they still want.
