I'm going shopping this afternoon and will probably do a bit of browsing for christmas pressies.
I tend to be the forager type of shopper (go out with no particular plan in mind, see something that'd be perfect for someone and buy it - could be in july that I'd see an ideal present and put it away for christmas) rather than going out with a list of gifts and recipients.
Also I love buying pressies for people so it's usually good fun.
Do other people enjoy buying presents for christmas or see it as a chore? (bit of a dull question - sorry!)

i absolutely love christmas shopping, and buying pressies for other people! i'm a bit of both, i'll make the list, then probably forget to bring it with me, and then find something completely perfect out of nowhere instead!!

I'm a weirdo....I HATE shopping! I get all annoyed with crowds etc...the only time I like going into town is if its really quiet, like a monday morning! I'm a catalogue/shop on line queen!
This year I'm not spending much on prezzies...witht the wedding and all...so all prezzies are coming from Avon! (and I'm a rep so I get them cheaper

).

I love it - but only if i start early and not rushing in on christmas eve to get stuff. Don't like buying for my sister in law though - cause she's a fussy sod!
