These are great tips. I usually do my shopping in advance and most of it online. I make a list with everyone’s name, my total budget and some ideas for gifts. If you think about that person and what they like to do, it isn’t too hard to come with an idea that is affordable. Magazine subscriptions are usually a good deal. People love them and it’s like getting a gift every month.

Very reasonable guidelines, James. It really pays to be prepared, I’ve got a little index card where I write down ideas for gifts beside the names. Very handy. Most of the time, all you need to do is just listen what people tell you throughout the year and you’ll stumble across many ideas for presents. Jot them down in time, then you’ll have them when you need them.

Thanks for the comment George. I believe festive shopping can be a great part of Christmas. The goodwill, the decorations in all the shops… Unfortunately, because we don’t do any planning beforehand it’s difficult to appreciate it.

Great tips. I would put the early tip in first place, as I think most of the problems come when you are late, especially when you are last in shopping malls when is already a big mess and most of the good products have gone. That makes you anxious and the quality of your shopping will decrease.
