We put ours up last weekend. We had to buy a new one and we wanted to make sure it was working the way it should

When I go out shopping with DH we go to Cracker Barrel or Ihop for breakfast. If I'm with my friends it's Starbucks and donuts!

Sams, aafes and ulta

I got my packages started!! Still looking for a couple of things. Hoping to be finished by next weekend❄

My guys love Starbucks so I put the bottled frappucino and a gift card in the stockings,toothbrush,socks,car freshners,beef jerky,protein bars and candy. As mentioned above phone chargers and ear buds, they go through several a year. DH gets about the same.

sweet spicy cinnamon scents and sugar cookie are what I end up burning all winter.

I do the majority online. I still like to hit a few stores with my DH and then we go out for breakfast.

I picked up a couple hallmark ornaments on sale at JC Penneys, snoopy and Star Wars.

I start wrapping when my tree goes up. I don't have a set schedule. When I find free time I shut myself in my room and wrap until I'm tired. I like to have a mix of wrapped gifts and gift bags under the tree so that makes it a bit easier.

Usually the week before Thanksgiving but I have to buy a new one this year so it might not go up until after Black Friday.

We do one for my DH's work party. It is a $10 new gift per person and the dirty part is being able to steal. Some of the items from previous years were fast food or coffee gc, scratch off tickets, candy, alcohol, coffee and beer mugs, and dvds and cds. Last year the men were all stealing a remote control truck from each other and the women were going for a Godiva mug filled with cocoa and candy

I would be happy with the newest Janet Evanovich book, new slippers and the entire series of Dawson's creek on DVD DH disagrees and thinks I need to upgrade my iPad

Direct tv has Christmas with the cranks playing on the fx channel on demand

I think I will have around 25 to 30 to shop for this year.

I just told my sister it was time to pull out the Elf DVD.

I bought a PS4 during the amazon prime sale A pair of Sperry boat shoes during a Bon ton sale A few clothing items during the year I feel way behind schedule

I hit Walmart and the only thing they had left was candy and wrapping paper.☹ -
I have one gift and one gift card left to buy. I have wrapped everything as it has been bought. Just finished stocking stuffers today. As with the above poster we have college tuition payments and fraternity dues to pay so I didn't shop as much as usual. I have not even started on my baking and candy making. Will hit the grocery store tomorrow and get in the kitchen Thursday. Cutting it close this year. I'm still waiting for it to actually feel like Christmas.
-
We usually put lights up around the house but so far DH hasn't done it this year. I have a Christmas flag and wreath on the door.
-
Nothing strange this year but when my middle son was younger he asked for a case of yoo hoo and a SAMs size bag of beef jerky.

My main tree went up early this year, the first week of November. I started working on the mantle and my snowglobes today. I might do my kitchen tree this year it has been awhile since I've put that one out.

I hope you have some help with all the clean up!
