Christmas is the most important and biggest social gathering of family members and friends all over the world. It’s the celebration of the birth of Jesus Christ and Christians celebrate it by inviting their relatives and friends to lunch or dinner. Also when it’s Christmas, you have to get presents for each of your family members and if you are invited to your friend’s house, you probably want to consider getting presents for each person in that house too. Although nobody will ask you or blame you if you don’t get gifts it’s like an obligation or an essential tradition. Around Christmas when you have to buy presents for a number of people which include younger, teenagers, adults and grandparents, you have to dedicate quite a time to come up with an idea to get such a present for everyone which they like. Females are a lot more expert than men in these situations but some of them also don’t know what to choose or simply don’t have time. The best thing you can do is to prepare a Christmas gift list.
It’s a simple list which includes the names of the people that you want to get presents for, your relationship with them and what they bring you Christmas last year. This way you can come up with an idea for each one of them and you can also estimate the money you are going to need for the gifts. Once you have updated the list with names and gift types, you can ask each one of them if they like anything particular for Christmas or you can get them whatever you want. Usually, people that are close to you such as your spouse, kids, and parents can ask you to bring them a specific gift that they need or will like whereas friends don’t do that unless it’s very close friends. You need to use your imagination and intuition in order to get these people presents. If you are planning to organize a party, you can also use this list to check the coming guests and afterward, you can mention it on the list what they gave to you as a Christmas gift.

Christmas Gift List Guidelines:
- Put the date of Christmas date on the top of the list so that you always remember how many days are left in Christmas and how many gifts you have to buy.
- Then mention the budget that you have in your pocket and that you want to shop while staying inside that budget. This way you can divide that money into equal parts for each one of them.
- Then enlist the names of all the family members that you want to buy gifts for. If anyone has mentioned a specific gift, put that in front of his or her name.
- Then put the estimated money for each gift in front of each so that you can make sure there is no need for extra money and this amount is enough.
- When you buy a gift for someone, mention that on the list so that you remember you have bought the gift already.
