Here's your annual reminder that some people are way more on top of things than the rest of us. It's the middle of October and 2% of people have already finished their Christmas shopping.

An online poll from YouGov yesterday found 2% of us have already bought all the presents we're planning to give out. Another 5% said they're mostly done shopping.


25% of people said they've started their Christmas shopping, but still have a ways to go. 54% haven't bought anything yet and 9% don't plan on buying any Christmas presents this year. Women were more likely to say they're finished shopping and men were more likely to say they haven't started yet.
