The girls have added up too £500 already so ive gone well over so ive gotta stop ( i start very early i just never relised what i had until i took a visit to the loft EEEK!!!)
About £150 on Eloise (+ £100 for her birthday on New Years Day!)
£100 each for me and OH
£100 each for both sets of parents
£20 each for Sister + Bro In Law, Niece, Nephew, Grandparents both sides, friends etc
£400 for nicole but only that high because we've got her a laptop and i always have to buy her a shed load of clothes at christmas.
£200-250 on callum, majority of that is clothes again
£150-200 charlie, mainly clothes
£100 on oh
£100 on family.
I always try but fail
we're spending £200 on Charlie, as we're planning to buy him things that he'll be able to use over the next year (bigger sizes in clothes, 6m+ toys etc.)
we aim to spend £20-25 on each close family member, that's about 10 people altogether so £250.
when it comes to the kids in my family (niece/nephew/younger brothers & sisters) we try to stick to a limit but if we see something that we know they'd love then we buy it for them and then try and buy things of equal value for the rest. i'd say about £150 there.
me & OH spend about £150 on each other, and then about £150 for the christmas food shop & extra bits & pieces.
saved a small fortune at the card factory this year, got 3 large gift bags, 4 medium gift bags, 5 small bags, 5 rolls of really nice wrapping paper, and 60 really good quality cards all for a tenner! x
