G - Other
I am one that could almost fall in all of the above.

a - I like to shop on my own
b - I like to shop by catalog (usually do this to compare prices and see what I want so I can save time at the stores when I do shop and if its cheaper in the catalog, I will purchase through the catalog
c - I like to shop on line (for same reason as b)
d- I have made my own gifts in the past

Hmm I am an A, B, C'er

I do love Christmas shopping as I am able to shop in stores when I am with my Mom and Sister . Here at home, I prefer the catalogues and online.

I'm and E, G.

My wife does most of the holiday shopping. We discuss what to get, and then she shops.

Hi HIL, I'm really enjoying this new thread you started.
I definitely use the combination of
A and C. As they years go along, I have been doing more and more of my Christmas shopping online. I usually like to hit the stores for stocking stuffers and other odds and ends.

g. I tend to buy things I think folks will like as I see them through the year. Spreads the pain a bit. I also like to make things when I can. I shop online for gifts, too, mostly for folks who don't live nearby -- easier to have the gift shipped directly than do it myself. :-)

All b and c. Sometimes I have to do a little a to complete my son's wish list at the last minute.

A. I shop year round and am always on the lookout for special things that I put away for Christmas. Of course I have to keep a list or I'd forget half the stuff and where I put it.

C. I love to shop online and do a fair bit of that too.

D. I have some homemade goodies that I do as well for gifts - the mailman, the paperboy, the sister-in-law that bugs my ass so I don't want to spend a whole bunch on her.

A. I love to go shopping with my daughter for gifts. There's something about just wanting to see the items, for me.

C. I shop online when I know what I want, but the store isn't in my area.

D. I make breads, cookies and candies for neighbors at Christmas for gifts.

A and C.

Would prefer a straight C, but doubt that will ever happen.

I am an A, B and Cer too. I love Christmas and picking out the gifts for everyone. If I had to choose just one though, I'd have to say A.

D and G. I have a little something homemade for everyone. Darren and I shop together mostly, especially for the kids. Then we each take a kid shopping so they can buy a gift for each other.

I hate to shop....always. Last year I went shopping one day with hubby to buy things for my daughter. Then I went one day with my daughter to buy for everyone else. I haven't shopped since.

Thank goodness I have a husband who loves to shop. He does it all other than Christmas.

I guess that makes me an A.

Hope you are not expecting just one answer, Lori.LOL

a. I prefer to go to stores myself, only when the main gifts are bought and the pressure is gone; for stocking stuffers for example

b. I prefer to shop by catalog.

c. I prefer to shop online. There just aren't a whole lot of places in Canada, that I know of anyway.

d. I prefer to make my gifts. I usually make some myself, if I get my act together and start early enough.

C I've done most of my Christmas shopping online for a long time. This is especially great for gifting people who aren't local, which is pretty much everyone.
