Organised mum has already bought and wrapped presents for next Christmas

A super organised mum has already started Christmas shopping for her huge family.

Tina Quarrel is clearly not a fan of last-minute shopping and on New Years' eve she shared a photo of her pre-wrapped gifts on 'The magical holidays of Christmas' Facebook group.

She is mother to six adult children, with an additional 16 grandkids to shop for.

In a bid 'to be organised like I used to be' Tina doesn't want 'all the Birthdays in between' to get in the way of her Xmas shop.

But it's not just Christmas she's preparing for either, as she's also bought 'a couple of Easter decorations and chocolates bars for Easter'.

"They are in date as it 6/23 that’s so far," she explained.

"I have also have a not pad with everyone’s name down what I have bought and who it is for I will continue buying throughout the year and hope to be finished by the end of November x."

Lots of people seemed were in awe of Tina's organisation.

One person wrote: "I would love to buy early but my kids switch up their hobbies and likes so often that it's better to wait until at least next August or September.

"At that point I have them write a list.

"But great organization! Happy new year."

A second added: "Just don't lose that note pad whatever u do!!

"Lol How very organized of u, if I had that many to buy for I would hope to be as organized as this. Well done!"

Someone else said: "I’m in awe of your level of organisation! I aspire to this but I’m totally skint after Christmas so can’t afford to start buying things yet lol."

Another user asked: "What happens if someone buys something you purchased already?"

Tina replied: "I wouldn’t know until Christmas but if it is for a grandchild I usually tell my children what I have bought or they tell me what they might have got it always works out somehow x.

"Also I don’t buy really expensive things for grandchildren, I buy a few smaller gifts plus I give money too as the older children prefer money, but they have something to open too my grown up children again have money or vouchers and some gifts to open x."
