Christmas. Organized.

Do you get so busy with the shopping and prepping for Christmas that things start to fall through the cracks? Or maybe you want a good way to keep track of what to buy, when it is bought and given?
Each year, I create a spreadsheet where I list all of the people I buy gifts for and the budget for the gifts. Â Once they are purchased, they are assigned a receipt number and I track when they have been wrapped. Â It helps bring me peace of mine that all the gifts are purchased and make it under the tree.
Assigning a receipt number makes it easy to find the receipt in case an exchange is needed since I am pretty terrible at remembering to get gift receipts.
I’ve shared this handy little sheet with you in case you want to start using a similar system. Enjoy!

Wow! What a great idea, I will definitely have to try this out as I have such a bad memory. Thanks for sharing.

Something I do is put a post it note on each wrapped gift that has what is inside written on it. Sometimes I forget what I’ve purchased for people, how bad is that?!?!
What a great printable! I’d love to have you link this us to Titus 2 Tuesday this week on Cornerstone Confessions.. I hope to see you there.

Very organized! I only get organized near the end of the season… “What? You still don’t have a present for your dad? Okay, get out a piece of paper and write down ‘Dad’ on it, and I still need a present for my brother, so write that down too…” You’re clearly way more organized. 🙂 Thanks for sharing at The Fun In Functional!
Love it! I have mine all filled out! Lol.
