I usually try to shop a little all year. Like my daughters clothes - I will shop clearance at the of seasons and then for winter clothes, I give them to her for Christmas and summer clothes are for her birthday in February. (example - went to the Limited Too the other day, never shop there regularly, too pricey - they had their summer clearance on sale an additional 50% off. I happened to have a $15 off $40 coupon. I bought some stuff, added it up for original selling price - got $171.50 worth of clothes for $27! :mickeyjump:) I'm all about the clearance sections! DD hates that, but it's the only way she will wear name brands. Ok, getting off topic here.
I try to have most of my shopping done before Thanksgiving for everyone else.
This year I think DD is getting an I Pod Nano. So I may wait until Black Friday to see if there are any good deals. I don't know if it's worth the stress though. I may just pay the $149 and get it sooner.

Gail, I'd just get it now (iPod). I think they might be harder to come by the closer to Christmas we get.
As for me I also try to get some shopping done all year long. I haven't this year b/c of our trip to Disney in December. All *extra* money is going towards that.
