How much have you spent on buying everyones pressies this year ?

I normally spend around £300-350 for everyone but this year its likely to top £400-500 now we have LO
:D
 
Hallies inc her Christmas clothes have gone over £500.
Darren's I've spent like £200 but will be getting him a laptop in the sales too, it's his birthday on Christmas eve though so it's bound to be expensive.
The rest of the families I got for under £100 though as they just get token boots 3 for 2 gifts.

I've spent about £1000 on Christmas including my Christmas day clothes & Hallie's Christmas day & boxing day clothes. I think thats quite good for everything, but we don't have to pay out for food as we eat out all over Christmas in familes houses :)
 
Mine is US dollars so not sure what it converts to for yall so I didn't vote. But we added it up and we have spent about $465 on Landon, right over $500 on Casen and $425 on Hayden. We still have to buy our parents something, which probably won't be much I think we are making them either a calendar or a photo collage of the boys pics we just had done.
 
I spent more than 500 on Caitlyn alone. Bad person!

Spent 30-50 on family members depending who they are.
 
i usually spend about 300-400 in total cuz most of that is my oh.. i like to spoil him for xmas as he does me.. and i feel bad so i get him loads usually a big thing and loads of little things but this year.. were not getting each other anything because were going to london just after xmas so were saving for that :) so we can spend there..

i think i spent 150 in total friends family, and something small for oh even tho im not suppsoe to lol
 
This year has been my most expensive ever and I am shamed to admit it. I have spent about £5000 on Emily alone (but we have bought her a pony which to be honest if it had not come along at this time of year would not have been for Christmas) I have a large family and friends group as well as Gabriella. In total, including Em I have probably spent about £6000. To be fair I work hard and we do not have big holidays etc before I get jumped on and it is all bought and paid for.
 
I spent $200 on Kenny, $100 on my niece Lily and about $70 each on my mom, dad, two sisters. I spent about $40 on my two brother in laws! And that is it!! (Thank god!) :flower:
 
i spend about £400 on each of my kids but i start shopping in July so we dont get into any debt :thumbup:
 
Christmas is soooo expensive for us. The older four get between 400-500 each. My OH has 11 brothers and sisters who all have at least 3 children each, so the whole family agreed to a fiver per child. a few of us get together and pool our money if one of the children asks for something which is a bit more expensive. We have a secret santa ring for the adults which is 20 each, so every adult gets one present. Our parents usually around 30 each and if we have any money left over we spend about 100 on each other. We start buying/saving in July though, or we wouldn't be able to do it all.
 
I've spent £160 this year, that includes stack loads of stuff for Holly (though probs only a tiny amount compared to the rest of you by the sounds of it) and £80 on everyone else. I got my OH's present on credit so that doesnt count til i have to pay in 2012 ;)

Thats not including food tho cos were doing xmas at mine this year so that will be another £100 at least.
 
TBH I dont have a clue :shrug: I dont count up what I am buying, I just buy what I can afford, but a rough idea would be about £250 on Dec and about £600 on Dan but thats rounding everything to the nearest £ and counting roughly in my head :haha: I voted 500+
 
I have a huge family I buy for over 20 people so I said £500. OH alone was £100 and Chloe and Jaycee got about £100 each with all their bits.
 
Wow :o Over £500 is winning, am I a scrooge or just too careful :wacko:
Think as little one gets older she will be getting the most out of everyone, I'm on Maternity leave at the mo and thought even up to £400 was too much
 
Wish I hadn't just added everything up! In total we have spent £1400!!!!! ooops oh well its Chritmas!!!!
 
I read it wrong :doh: I did put £200 - £300, but thats just on Evie, I reckon if i add it all up i'll be nearing £600 - £650 :|
 
iv just count up jesses presents and hes got £620 not including his christmas outfit and one or two bits i havnt got yet, when iv finished it will be £700 on him round about

OH has had £350 on him

my mum and dad £80 between them Inlaws £40 between them

mine and OHs siblings £80 between

my niece £30 + friends kids £20

my 5 cousins £35 between

friends £50 between

so all together £1385 not including what OHs got me! eeeeek
