Common Christmas mistakes

The perfect Christmas is impossible…because something always goes wrong!

Here’s the most common Christmas mistakes, according to SWNS:

  • Leaving the tags on gifts
  • Running out on wrapping paper on Christmas Eve
  • Sending out your Christmas cards too late
  • Not getting someone a gift who bought YOU a gift
  • Getting too drunk on Christmas Eve and being hungover Christmas Day
  • Knocking over your Christmas tree
  • Drinking too much in general
  • The presents you mailed out don’t get there
  • Forgetting to put your “happy and surprised” face on while opening a gift
  • Screwing up Christmas dinner

Others include having the wrong person open a gift, accidentally breaking a gift you just received and your kids CATCHING you wrapping presents.

Sound familiar? 😂🤷‍♂️🎄
