What is your budget for your LO?!

[LaDY]

So how much have you budgeted for your LO's this year? I am now £100 over ...iv got a little carried away! What about you? xx

 

[mandy81]

my budget this year was £250 for each child (because we have a very busy year next year)
but that has went out the window lol
tbh I don't even know how much i've spent on them xx

I don't really set a budget, I just buy what I can afford. This year I have spend about £700 between the 2 of them . But that includes a tv which is for both of them.

I've never set a budget but did try this year. I was going to try and spend £150 on charlie, £200 on callum and £400 on nicole, but that went out of the window a long time ago. But i think ive now spent well over £400 on callum and that doesnt include his and charlies big present!!!

Umm I did have a budget but its gone out the window lol to be honest we dont have to worry about money for a change so I will probably spend a bit but not TO much as they have to much as it is x

I'm not setting a budget as such, just getting a 'big present' and then some little gifts. Probably spend about £50 altogether. His big present is an awesome Pirate Ship Ball-Pit that was on offer at £25, then we got him some Dinosaur Pyjamas, a 2010 House of Fraser Bear (as it's his birth year) then little bits and bobs as we see them. He's already got a pile of presents in the cupboard, so he's not going short, but I'm not spending a huge amount of money either.

I initially said £200 but ive lost count on how much ive spent :S and ive still got more to get. I think ill just do whatever i can afford each time im out

 

[HannahGraceee]

[Laura--x]

ive spent about £150-£200 so far.Didnt want to spend that much this year but its just so hard to say no! Not getting her anymore toys now though just clothes and little bits that she needs xx

 

[missjess]

wow !!! You girls are nuts! Where do you all find the money?! lol

We are spending 250$ on Josh. And we're not giving big presents to anyone this year because we cannot really afford it. I just think it would be stupid to buy it all on our credit cards, so we are just using our spare money xx

I must add, I am a major bargain hunter. I think it helps a lot to keep the costs down !!

 

[Tasha]

£250 for each of them. I have not reached that much on any of them yet but I do think I will eventually go over a bit.

 

[LaDY]

Im glad i am not the only one going a little crazy on presents!! I feel a little better now xx

 

[amie-leigh]

my budget was £200ish and im going to end up going over by about £30 because we are getting morgan a playhouse and we decided to get a better one and already spent a lot on everything else
but in all fairness £30 over my original budget is pretty good i think x

 

[amygwen]

My budget is $200 for Kenneth, which is about £130ish.

 

[MichaelaD]

Trying not to spend too much this christmas as were hoping to move, trying to limit myself to £150. It's so harddd!!

 

[history_girls]

My poor LO - Our budget is about £70 all in for LO.

 

[ames_x]

My limit was that we spend £75 each on Kane, of course I have already gone over. I seriously can't help myself, I vowed no more toys apart from what I bought as my house is like toys r us. So instead I keep buying him clothes and pjs

We have spent about £300 on Eloise for both Christmas and her 1st birthday as that is on New Years Day
