I'd say Christmas eve is when I really feel the Christmas spirit. Not one decoration goes up in this house earlier that 10-14 days. Mostly because I like it to be up for as shirt a time as possible. The longer the house is spruced up, the more I miss it after it's all taken down.
I love Christmas eve, a pile of beer, and instructions to a load of toys to battle through before bed.
Glass of milk and a cookie set out for Father Christmas, and something for the reindeer too. All of which has to be slightly nibbled and drank (of course).
With the children around, Christmas feels special again

September 
I don't put my decorations up until a fortnight before but I do start planning three months in advance, I love Christmas
I can't stand the thought of shopping in December when all the shops are packed and the best stuff has been picked over plus last year the snow was so bad couriers weren't delivering round here.
With that in mind I've done about 80% of my present buying already, about half of that online.

About 14 days before, that's when we drive down and choose a tree.
We have done quite a bit of our shopping already though, as mentioned above, if the snow is bad this year it makes it Hell getting deliveries.

I've been buying pressies for a few weeks now, but have to agree. The coke advert makes Christmas for me. Oh and Alistair Sim, Scrooge. Then I know it's Christmas.
