Just thought I would ask when everyone starts their Christmas shopping?
I like to start early, but usually I don't get started until after Thanksgiving. What kind of stores do you usually go to? Small/large retail....malls...specialty? I like to shop at Penney's, Kohl's, Target, and Wal-mart (it's closer to me than the other stores). Do you go to the sales the day after Thanksgiving? I went once to Wal-mart with my daughter and daughter-in-law. People were so rude and we had gotten up so early that I've never gone back for the early morning stuff. I live too far from a large city so to go takes all day and I don't like crowds or waiting in line. How about internet shopping? Do much there? I love shopping on the internet. Last year I ordered stuff from Kohl's and Penney's. I figure that the shipping is cheaper than me driving 100 miles, eating out, and spending all day shopping.

I put a little money back every week in the bank Christmas Club. They sent me my Christmas Check today. Now I'm ready, but as usual when I get money, I don't want to spend it, except on me and my son!!!

Linda, you are going to have to start doing what I do. That's start a Christmas Club account at your bank. Most accept $5, $10, $15, $20, and more a week. Rick and I put in $20 each a week, so you figure how much we have for Christmas. We do put some toward house insurance....it always comes due around then too. Then they just mail you the check with interest for Christmas. I just rec'd mine yesterday. If I didn't do this, there would be no money for Christmas here either. Give it a try....You can start one right now or whenever.
