    What we asked:

    Q: Have you already done your holiday shopping?
    (331 votes total)

    No, not yet (146) 44%
    I won't do any holiday shopping (73) 22%
    Some of it (48) 15%
    Most of it (44) 13%
    Yes, all of it (20) 6%

    Nearly half of the people who have voted in the poll (44%) last week haven't done their holiday shopping yet at the time of voting.

    22% of those who have voted, however, won't do any holiday shopping for one reason or another.

    15% of our visitors who have voted in the poll have already done some shopping, and 13% most of it.

    Only 6% of all the people who have voted have already done all of their holiday shopping last week.

    Such is the power of procrastination. I'm not a bit surprised.

    Well, when voting, it was the not yet option. But, as usual, I have managed to already have two gifts without having to go shopping :) . Usually I succeed in getting all my gifts with little to no shopping.

    Huh, how can you get gifts with no shopping? Do you give people your second hand things you don't want any more?

    Well, I usually give things together with other people, a gift from both/all of us, because the others want to give gifts that are too expensive for them to give alone, so we split the costs, and I have a gift, gotten by someone else. :)

    You sound like a dutchman. More than half the fun is shopping for it. some might spend it all at once, but I like to spread. Also, and that is the dutchman in me, I buy much after the festivities.
