For years, I always start my Christmas shopping on October because last minute Christmas shopping can be very stressful, and it can also be very difficult finding exactly the right gifts for everyone on your list.
I know, it is only October, but if you have a limited budget you have to start thinking about Christmas now.
Finding your Christmas gifts early will not only save you time, but also save you money (if you buy from the right places). So, what I’m going to do is share with you a list of some Christmas gift ideas for under P500 only and let you know where to get them.
