Yeah food and non food stuff like foil, wrapping paper, crackers, batteries all the stuff you need at Christmas, I find it a good way to budget buying a few bits every week

No not presents but they could go in a cupboard as well I suppose

I always buy my wrapping paper just after Christmas and put it away.

I have started stocking up on some goodies that I put away when I do the shopping each week.

Should be abolished

No but I want to be more organised this year, I want to start Christmas shopping very soon, it's hard to find vegan treats where I am so I really should pick up a few things to have over the holidays as I spot them. I also haven't decided what I'm making this year, maybe a nut roast.

I have a big box in the garage and like you I usually start in the next week to start buying bits so it doesn't all get left until the last minute and mentally I don't feel I have spent that much lol...
