There's Black Friday and the desperation for last minute Christmas shopping. How much money do you usually spend during this time of the year?

Last minute desperation for Christmas shopping arrives at 5pm on December 23rd. If I have bought all gifts by the end of November I call that a success. Usually I don't start before mid December.

@horgen: I'm usually done shopping right after Black Friday. That's my last minute with holiday shopping starting between July and August for me. Not surprised that others does this differently.

I usually do my holidays shopping in September/October so I can get that out of the way. I hardly shop for anything on Black Friday but I was gonna wait to get that MSI GTX 980 ti on Black Friday but I ended up buying it 3 months ago and didn't want to wait for a sale. As far as how much I spend, my spending's range from between $500/1000 and I can tell you know that I'm a big spender. Also I like to point out that I do however shop during Cyber Mondays after Black Friday and Cyber Monday's is the only thing I'll do and it's easier to shop on sales then walking into Black Friday.

Already pre-ordered Fallout, Tomb Raider and Battlefront, so that's $141 or so already

I've done black Friday only once, but there's plenty of people to buy gifts for so it adds up.

@Allicrombie: PS4 has good games as of now, but still lacks good quality of exclusive games outside of Bloodborne, it's pretty much it. Drake's Collection was release last October and nothings coming out this holiday until like Uncharted 4 at least. The last time I played my PS4 was Destiny: The Taken King.

On games? Not much, really depends on how money I have earned in Bring Rewards. Usually I earn about $500 a year, and use about $100 on games, the rest goes to buying Christmas gifts from Amazon.

Things gotten worst. The kids today now only want iphones and ipads. It was so much cheaper when they asked for Hess trucks and tickle-me Elmos.

@Legend002: The 1996 factory sealed Tickle Me Elmo goes for over $100. But yeah, my little metroid has finally evolved to the point of wanting video games for Christmas (that or art supplies) so it's not too much of a hassle.

It's far easier for me to buy gifts when I am done with my exams...
