i know morgans has come to no where near this amount but teens are teens , in mens size clothes that cost more :growlmad:
 
Well my brother's 16 and as much as my mum would looooove to say ''enough is enough'' she still can't help picking up and picking up. He's into the same kinda expesive things as your boy, adidas, nike and ''Gio-Goi?'' I'm only 19 and don't even know what it is, just that it's damn expensive. Cutting back as they get older is definitely easier said than done and my mum fails every year lol! xx
 
thank u for reply xx

now weve got morgan aswell tho there has to be an end ! :? got him a phone yday aswell :? only cos he keeps using all my credit and has broke his phone , so ive him a phone with a 30day day deal £10 a mth wth 500tx 100min :lol:
 
My brother just turned 17 on the 23rd so we have the same dilemma :dohh: boys are so expensive! Mine always want games and stuff as-well which look really little wrapped up but cost so much. He has a twin sister and she never gets as much spent on her but gets more stuff because the stuff she likes aren't so bloody expensive!
A moped! :shock: I thought my brother wanting an i-phone was bad :rofl:
 
yep a moped and a car next yr :rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl: i was exactley laughing like that !! LOL
 
its just taken us 5yr to save for oh to do his driving/pass and get a car :lol:
 
My niece is 16 and she has asked for:

Ipad or Iphone
Nike trackies bottoms
REAL Uggs
Digital Camera
Make up [only Benefit nothing else lol]
Perfume
Pauls Boutique Bag
the list is endless.... good luck to my sister is all I can say, apparently the older they get the more expensive they become!!!!
 
I was out shopping with my mum in town today and she was buying for my 12 year old brother!!!

He has got -

Kinect for the xbox (£120)
Some kinect games (£100 or so)
A new Coat (£35)
A hooded checkered shirt (£17)
Tracksuit (£60)
Xbox games (£60)
Firetrap Gutties (no idea on cost lol)
And loads more expensive stuff including a pair of Nike Hitops at £101!!!! :shock: I spent £1.50 in asda on a pair of shoes for me :haha: then felt really guilty when I bought a new changing bag earlier for £50!!
 
I have always found girls easier to buy for.... even when they are little :)
