What are you doing in preparation for the Christmas season so far? Actually, we've set up our 4 year old Christmas tree at home. My son excitedly helped me decorate it especially now that our Christmas three motif is royal blue, his favorite color. Then, last payday, me and my girlfriends decided to go shopping for some gifts so we won't get too much affected by the last minute shoppers come December. Also not to get too shocked with the bill by doing it the one-time-big-time way.
So I believe it does help us plan and budget the gifts we're giving this holiday. Have you done any preparations as of yet?
