Why has Christmas shopping become so hard?
I have given over 40+ answers to people wanting to know what to get for others for Christmas this year. I made my answers fairly quickly. Why is this such a hard decision for so many people?

Money is tighter these days, perhaps? I guess people want to make sure they’re making a good decision regarding their money instead of just buying willy-nilly.
Either that, or people are just really unimaginative.

I think tree gal has something there – people have so much already that it’s difficult to buy anything for them.
Another reason, I think, is that people get hung up on the idea of the ‘perfect’ gift, usually something very expensive that the ads have been touting for weeks.
Thank God my family are all book mad.

…because Christmas has become soooo commericalized, we forget the reason for the season: the baby Jesus. This year, I made it a point not to stress out myself shopping for gifts.

It’s really not that difficult for normal people. If you haven’t noticed, the majority of the people asking said questions are teenagers. Today’s teenagers are used to their parents micro-managing most of their decisions. You take the parents out of the equation, and you have a bunch of questions being asked on Y!A.

Because we care. And because there is so much to choose from these days.
