I was finished two weeks ago! I like to shop all year long. If I happen to see something immeidately after Christmas that I know someone will love for a birthday or Christmas gift the upcoming year, I pick it up and keep it until the right time! Haha. It sounds nuts, but it helps me in two major ways:

(1) I don't have to worry the entire month of December that I won't get my birthday/holiday shopping done in time (my two sisters and my dad have birthdays in November, December and January).

(2) I don't freak out like I use to in December when my bank account is suddenly cut in half from shopping. I keep myself on a pretty strict budget each month, so it makes it more affordable to just buy gifts throughout the year rather than set aside money for shopping only in December.

Good luck finishing up your holiday shopping!!
