Christmas is right around the corner and this year I am way behind on my shopping! With the pandemic, I haven’t been the most enthusiastic to do any Christmas shopping. By December 1st I would have had everything done by now. My list is definitely smaller this year and I definitely like to budget my Christmas list. Can you come up with 5 ideas? I know! It is super hard to come up with ideas for every person on your list! How about 25 Christmas Gift Ideas on a Budget, under $20?! This list will definitely help you ?

List & Budget

I make a list of everyone who will get a gift and who is just getting a card in the mail. Next to each name I write down what I may get for each person. That way when I am out I will have a better idea on what I am looking for and not splurge.  I make a budget and stick to it.   This will be my first time Christmas shopping in store in quite a few years but I am a bit excited to do so.  I honestly enjoy online shopping.  It is amazing!

When to Shop

I will start my Christmas shopping this week! know, I know! But I’ve noticed, it seems many people do this. I plan to just go in store and shop this time around, since I don’t have much time. My list is smaller this year but who said it gets any easier! Black Friday is not the only way to get deals. Honestly, there are deals every week leading right up to Christmas. Try to shop online if you start early or if you are starting late like myself, plan to shop early morning or in the evenings during the week. Skip the weekends if you can help it. Even though we are in a pandemic people are still working even if it is remote and kids are doing remote school, as well. Therefore, the days are busy and people will still shop on the weekends.
