Have you started Christmas Shopping yet?

Thanks to Amazon's Lightning Deals, I am almost finished with my shopping! (Granted my husband may not actually WANT a 9.99 iron, but it was on sale!) [I didn't really buy him an iron.] I am looking for a deal on a couple more 'accessory' type things but other than that, I am pretty much done.
What I really could use now is more wrapping paper.

I have started and am almost done. I keep buying stuff for myself. I am waiting for a couple of boxes from Amazon. Just need to finish shopping for the kids.

There are some seriously weird things on those lighting deals, I'll give you that. AND some of them sell out quickly. I think the oddest one I saw was a ukulele tuner - and it was 63% sold out by the time I saw it. A lot of the stuff I was already looking for popped on lightning deals this weekend, so I grabbed them when I saw them go up.

I had intended to get most of ours done via laptop over the weekend, but every time I sat down and logged into eBates I had to get right back up and do something else. As a result, I have bought exactly 2 Christmas presents so far. Neither were purchased online.
I really hope to have a few minutes tonight to get some shopping done!

We're pretty much done. I think we have one person to buy for, and I have to figure out the Mrs, but that's about it.

We've got quite a bit done for the kids. Just have a few more things to pick up then some stocking stuffers. We only have a few gifts beyond the kids that we need to get so it should be fairly simple to get it all done. I did purchase a gift online for our son on Friday. He wanted a range finder for when we're out hunting. We'd looked at the Black Friday ads and found one at Sportsmans Warehouse for $120 and it had really good reviews. I found the exact same one on Amazon for $116 plus I had a $20 coupon from a gift I'd purchased my husband for his birthday. So for less than $100, I got the same gift and was able to avoid the crowds! Gotta appreciate a good deal like that! And, it was free 2-day shipping so should be here tomorrow!

Kiddos and the BF's big gifts are done - Sanata still has shopping to do but since they are only 7 & almost 10 that will be easy enough

I have no idea what I'm getting anyone! Need to get out there and walk around to get ideas.... Since I'm in Miami for the foreseeable future - will try to do that this weekend.

Did some cyber shopping this morning for my BIL at Cabela's. Hope he likes the panoramic scouting camera! Everyone else is being slow getting me their lists.

Done.
Started at about 9:30 Saturday evening and finished in under an hour. Nine gifts, all ordered online.
My wife does most of our shopping, mostly online as well.

(Granted my husband may not actually WANT a 9.99 iron, but it was on sale!) Is a 9.99 iron almost a pitching wedge? I haven't started shopping yet, but my family stopped exchanging presents a few years ago since we already have so much. We only get gifts for my niece and nephew. There are just a few friends I shop for.

I've purchased a few items, but still have 3 nieces and 2 great-nieces to buy for. Other than that there aren't a whole lot that I buy for and my husband and I don't generally exchange - we usually get something that we want together or for the house.
