When will you start (or did you start) your holiday shopping?


Douglas Hollis

"Thanksgiving. The day after. Everybody thinks of that being a big sales day. It's enough of a draw to get me in the store on that day."

Ceres Chua

"After Thanksgiving, because then I'll really have to go shopping whether I have time to or not."

Timothy Hwu

"I'll start it when my paycheck comes in. That'll be when I get a job some time in
December."

Vanessa Pitts

Education

"I will start it this weekend, Oct. 12. I'll make a list for the seven nieces and nephews and cousins, go to Walmart, get a bunch of toys and put them on layaway. I do that to get it out of the way. I hate having to think about it in December."

Charlie Reese
Custodian/Crewman II

"My wife takes care of that."
