Christmas Planner Spreadsheet

Christmas, sorted. Gifts, budget, cards, the food shop and the big dinner, all in one spreadsheet that does the maths for you. Most Christmas planners are pages you fill in by hand. This one adds everything up, tells you who still needs a present, what's still to wrap, how much budget is left, and exactly what time the potatoes need to go in. WHAT'S INSIDE (11 tabs) - Dashboard: days to Christmas, budget, spent and left, gifts to buy / on the way / to wrap / wrapped, spending by category with progress bars and a chart, plus countdown, cards and food progress - Setup: Christmas Day date, total budget, and 8 budget categories (gifts, food and drink, decorations, cards and postage, wrapping, parties and days out, travel, charity) - People: up to 50 people, each with a budget, what you've spent, gifts wrapped and a status (No gift yet / In progress / All wrapped / Over budget) - Gift List: 200 gift rows with a person dropdown, price, and Bought, Ready and Wrapped columns. Status updates itself - Other Spending: log everything that isn't a gift - Christmas Card List: 120 rows for written, sent and received - Christmas Food Shop: a starter list sorted by section, with an estimated total - Christmas Dinner Timer: type when you want to eat and your turkey weight, and add each dish's cooking time - Timeline: every dish in the order it starts, with the time, ready to print and stick on the fridge - Countdown: 36 Christmas jobs already dated back from Christmas Day, with Done / Overdue / This week WHAT YOU GET - 2 versions: £ (GBP, UK food list and dinner) and $ (USD, US food list and dinner) - Quick Start guide (PDF) Reusable: change the Christmas Day date next year and every date moves with it.
