Do you show up at parties fashionably late? Do you wait until the last minute to start a project? Are you the final passenger to board the airplane? If you answered yes to any of these questions, it's a good bet that you haven't even thought about starting your holiday shopping yet.

And you're not alone. Last year, 30 percent of December shopping on MSN� was done the week before Christmas.

If the prospect of parking lot congestion, stressed-out salespeople and long lines at the mall isn't making it any easier for you to get started, don't worry; there's another way. In the United States, MSN Shopping's Procrastination Central, which launches Dec. 10, (http://www.msnshopping.com/), has great gifts you can purchase without leaving your home, from hundreds of top retailers including Barnes&Noble.com, Blue Nile Inc., Dell Inc., Eddie Bauer Inc., JC Penney and Red Envelope Inc., to name a few.

Each day Procrastination Central offers a "cheat sheet" for last-minute shoppers, with listings of all the stores that can deliver gifts in time for the holidays. Even if you shop as late as Dec. 23, you can still find that perfect gift.
