Very cool to get these bargains. I wish I could indulge in shopping like this right now, but we are about to move 3 hours away and already have a large trucks worth of stuff to pack. I love love lovvvve end of holidays shopping. My fave finds are the beauty holiday packs on clearance

This is the best. I always love shopping in the after christmas sales.

If only I could be that organised. Thanks for sharing.

Clever planning and honestly something I tell myself I will do. But never do.
I am going to be proactive though and ensure Christmas shopping is spread out during the year and done before December. Christmas month gives me anxiety and I panic a lot.

Well done and good planning! My record for buying Christmas gifts early is 18 months! And birthday gifts I think was 2.5-3 years!

I only just commented to my hubby that we’d missed the post-Xmas sales for decorations, wrapping paper, etc. So well done.

I hate boxing day, people are crazy. by the time I make it in, the shelves are empty. I dont mind doing it slowly through the year. I pick up xmas cards, and wrapping paper after xmas, pretty much the only thing I can get my hands on.

I thought she had finished all shopping after reading the title! I like to buy things throughout the whole year where possible!

Yes great to be organised but I agree with the comment need to remember you did and remember where but if you have a great memory perfect.

I agree that this sort of planning ahead is really smart, if you have access to a shop that has the stuff you need.

Wow the organisation is unreal! We live in a small apartment so storage would be a right pain! Glad to see it works for them but we still enjoy shopping nearer the festive period

At the beginning of the year I always tell myself that this year I will be more organised. Then I start buying presents towards end November and beginning of December. One thing I’d never buy early is anything electric. By the time the gift was given the warranty would have run out.

  I agree with your common sense approach to electricals and warranties.

I feel like I am pretty organised person, but i wouldn’t even think of starting to look for christmas stuff until Octobrr

I’m generally organised, but this is next level.

A new table setting every year? That’s impressive. I was avoiding the shops this year when the sales happened and in terms of Christmas gifts, that’s too risky to buy early.

Some lovely things for Christmas but not really presents I think

I tried to get in but I didn’t brave the boxing day sales as I hate crowds and I’m heavily pregnant so didn’t want to risk going out in a mass of bargain crazy people.
I went to the shops two days after and there was pretty much next to nothing but damaged goods left so will have to wait!
Also, I like seeing what new things they have each year.

The heading is a tad deceptive mom … “Kmart Shopper Has Already Almost Finished Her Christmas Shopping For This Year.” NOT a Christmas present in sight, unless she is going to give someone a box of glasses., but hey good on her at least the table will be awesome.

  I agree I was thinking presents haha. I was interested how she would know what people want and ensure they wouldn’t get it through out the year.

I always keep my eyes open for bargains throughout the year and put them aside – I loathe last minute shopping!

I do buy them when i see the bargains throughout the year.
