CHRISTMAS SHOPPING? Do you buy more stuff for yourself or for others?

Everybody I know goes out to shop,

then comes home with more for

themselves or their house than they

do for their 'Christmas shopping list.'

Is that why we have all the

last minute shopping?

    I almost never shop for myself. I usually have a list for who I need to shop for and that's all I get. (Besides, I don't usually have any money left for myself - boohoo!)

    I usually set out with a list and then find all these great things on special or unique items that i fall in love with, and end up buying myself heaps of things!! i'm terrible...especially if something is sooo cute...as things tend to be at xmas, they have very special things for sale!! :) But that's why i love xmas shopping coz i will get things for myself too!

    I always buy more stuff for others than myself and my home at the holidays. Sometimes even putting off getting things that I don't absolutely need in order to buy gifts.

    I shop for neither. I think it's ridiculous. Save your money. I just think it's crazy the way people go shopping and fight over who's the first one in the door etc.

    I buy more for others at Christmas time. I buy what I want or need thoughout the year for myself.

    i get more for others. my niece is the one who gets more from us. we spoil her with everything.

    she sees something, asks for it, and then we get it for her.
