Well are you a last minute shopper or have you been ready for weeks in advance?
Me personally, Im a last minute shopper, you'll will see me on Christmas Eve running and racing trying to remember who I have to buy for and what in the name of all thats holy should I get them.
Last minute,i try get everything in advance but i never do
There's plenty of time yet........:cool:
Usually last minute, but I got most of it done early this year. Couple last minute bits as usual, got the ole doll to do them for me. Ole dolls are great. :)

My problem is Im waiting on this months wages, once they come along, there will be no stopping me!
Ive done all of mine and all of my mum's for her too - the advantage of being unemployed :)
Ordered most of mine, just waiting delivery. Internet is great - no shops, no queues at ATM's, no stupid Doris's dragging around 10 kids with them getting in the way...
I think I might give the whole gifts thing a miss this year.
Will tell the family after they've given me gifts though.
I hope they understand.
Christmas eve is the day to do your shopping.
You just run about and you don't have time to think about what you are getting you just get it!!:o
I have no presents bought at all yet so it will be Christmas eve again this year
Whats an ole doll?
Its Donegalish for Mammy!!:rolleyes:Quote:

I plan to be finished by opening hours ;)Quote:

Have nearly all mine. Need your advice though.
My godson Shakedown's 23. Interests - Martial Arts, Athlone Town, Liverpool, Music, pints, women (has a gorgeous girlfriend though so he's behaving himself), X Box ( has everything in that genre) along with loads of other things.
I want to surprise him this year - anyone got any ideas?? I'm giving him money and music gift tokens and so on but I'm looking for that something special.
Really would apreciate any advice as many of youse are in his age group.
Why don't you pay for his annual subscription fee to foot.ie? All cheques or postal orders can be made out to :Quote:

They're a lot quicker tha West Ham's shop - waiting for stuff from them which I ordered before I ordered from the Toon. Just a few little things for myself, y'know.Quote:
