The longer you wait to do your gift-buying, the more money you're likely to spend. Shop before "Black Friday" rolls around if you can. That allows you to spread your Yule shopping budget out over several weeks, rather than just a few days. Better yet, shop online from your favorite retailers - most will waive shipping if you spend more than $25 -- and that way you'll be less likely to grab those "impulse buy" items at the cash wrap.
