The pressure of Holiday shopping is something I do not deal with well. My tendency is to put it off to the last minute, as if my state of denial would actually make the task go away! It never happens that way, yet my habit persists. I would publicly like to state that this year will be different.

My goal is to have all shopping done by the 15th of December. That may seem late to many people, but it is a huge leap for me, since usually I am shopping on Christmas Eve.

With this goal in mind and list in hand I have found a few sites for unusual, not too expensive, socially conscious, or green gift ideas. Not that any gift has to meet all of that criteria, but I do strive to be a conscious consumer.

I have simply compiled a few links to other people's great research - no need to re-invent any wheels.
