Have You Started Yet ?
I mean christmas shopping ?
Bought a few things today :eek: The penny jar is filling up nicely, should be full at xmas so i can haul it down to asda to that change machine and buy the turkey :D Told the lads not to expect half as much as they have had in previous years, at 16 and 18 ...time to cut down. :D |

Christmas shopping? Wow.. No, I haven't yet.
I've only just bought my friend's birthday present, and her birthday's in november. Hmmn, I guess I should start looking around for Christmas presents. :P |
Re: Have You Started Yet ?
Nooooooooooooo! Don't even think about it yet!

Re: Have You Started Yet ?
Yes, I think I got the first Christmas presents for this year sometime in July......sad old bird that I am!
|
Re: Have You Started Yet ?
I started some time ago. When I see something that would make an appropriate gift for someone on my list, I make the purchase.
Of course, when I was in the UK in July, did a pretty fair amount of shopping for Christmas. |
Re: Have You Started Yet ?
yes i started buying them a couple of weeks ago
|
Re: Have You Started Yet ?
I keep a 'Treasure Drawer'....I add gifts to this all year round and when a birthday creeps up on me...as they sometimes do, I go and see what presents I have in my 'Treasure Drawer'.

Had me scared there for a second Jimmi5bellies. Had to recheck the calander, yup it's not Decemebr 24th yet so I'm still in good shape!:rolleyes:

Re: Have You Started Yet ?
Jimmi5bellies......just out of curiosity how much do the change counting machines at asda charge you ? here in California the machines in the supermarkets charge 8.1/2 % , extortionate in my view , but the banks refuse to take coins in quantity unless counted and wrapped into rolls and even then charge a fee.
I think some banks on the east coast have free coin counting machines but not here , maybe someone can put me straight . |

I've never encountered any bank that charged for taking properly counted and rolled coins here. Did have a bank that tried to charge an organization I belong to a "cash handling fee" but we promptly took our business elsewhere. There are a lot of nasty little bank charges these days if you are not careful. |
