Christmas Blog Party ~ Day 3~


Today is Day 3 of the Blog Party going on over at momDot. Todays Sponsors are Appledonia, Hippos Toes and My Bag.
The topic for today is: Have you started your Christmas shopping yet? Do you budget for the holidays? Do you always stick to your budget? Share with us any budgeting tips you may have!
This is the first year that I haven't started my holiday shopping yet. I usually have everything ( well almost everything ) bought by Thanksgiving. This year I am switchin it up a bit by going Black Friday shopping with Katie. Hopefully I get some really good deals and get most of my shopping done.
Budget? What budget? Haha, no just kidding. I usually have a specific number in my head of how much to spend on each person. And I am glad to say that I usually come in under the number that I thought of. Pretty good.
Thanks for stopping by!
And - is anyone else having problems spacing with blogger?? My lines havent been spacing the past couple of day! AACk!

I am finding comfort in today's question because I have found out I am not the only one without a budget! Comfort in numbers, lol

Good luck on Black Friday, you must be a brave girl! I've only gone out a few times, and it just seems like pure madness. I can't take it.

Oh good. Another person who doesn't know what a budget is. All these organized people were starting to make me feel inadequate - LOL!

Black Friday shopping is the best! I always do it online though, no lines, same prices.
