I, like most Americans, often wait until the last minute to buy Christmas gifts. This year I decided to try and do something differntly. I try to shop a little as the year goes by - especially now. I am on the lookout for items that I think my friends and family will want. I then buy them now, or sometime wait for them to go on sale. Then once they're home, I wrap them up.
I personally love to wrap presents, but I hate to do it when I have a gazillion other things to do. Buying gifts slowly gives me pleasure since I spending money on others and I get the joy of wrapping presents for them.
Of course, there are some gifts that are a better price during the holiday season (or even right after the holiday season). On those items, it might be better to wait for the big sales.

Here's a popular and inexpensive christmas gift idea for those struggling to find the perfect gift this holiday season. It's called a personalized christmas ornament. Personalized christmas ornaments make excellent gifts that friends and family absolutely getting. I would add that a personalized ornament is not only a beautiful Christmas tree decoration, but a unique keepsake gift that captures a snapshot in time of precious memories and the events of ones life. They’re also fairly inexpensive gifts (under $15), something to keep in mind if one has a limited christmas gift budget.
