Normally by mid-december but I realized I am already done for this year.
I used to be one who bought throughout the year - like when I saw a good deal on something. But my kids were really young and didn’t care about trends or “the latest thing” or even knew what a Christmas wish list was.
This year I haven’t started, so we’ll see how it goes.
Most years it to get the big things out of the way and then shop for stocking stuffers throughout December. Most my stocking stuffers are bigger than what will fit in a stocking, oops!
Mid November. But that’s for the previous year.
@phendrick Excellent answer.
I shop all year so I’m ready
Isn’t that what the summer is for?

This year? What holiday shopping?
I start my shopping the day after Christmas and find deals all year long

I have a 3d printer so I am printing all my gifts!
I get all my holiday shopping done by buying things.
Before the next holiday?
I shop all year but I also have butthead brothers that don’t tell me what they want till like the week before Xmas so they delay the process.

@UpbeatDuck Last year I used Meh bags as “stockings!”
My wife… “Thanks honey”!
