I spend less than $300. More people are not buying gifts in my circle this year.
-
How ever much I want to. I don't worry about if they spent the same amount on me. That is not what it is about. I gave something to someone a few days ago and they said but I didn't get you anything. I said I don't care. That is not why I done it.
People complain so much about Christmas and I think I have seen it on here as well saying how they can't wait til it is over. I always hate to see it gone. I love this time of year. If you don't want to celebrate Christmas then don't but don't push your hate on everyone else. If you don't want to buy gifts then don't. But the rest of the world doesn't have to know it. As for how much I have spent that is none of any one's business. Everything I purchased is paid for and how much I spent doesn't matter.

Every year id a little different. It depends on what my kids are into. Some times they are into things that are not that expensive so I may spend more or less one year. It also depends on the amount of people I am getting gifts for. Last year I did not get gifts for my kids teacher, but I did this year because they went to a different school and I really like the teachers there.
-
$200 for each of my kids, $100 on ds's gf, $20 for each niece and nephew, $100 on dh, $25 for each of the two names we picked. About $600 by the time it's all done.
-
Usually $300 each Christmas on the wife... sometimes a little more.
-
I spent 200.00 have spent more in the past, you know if I had the money in the season I did give. One year, when my kids were young, some how I earned 500.00 I didn't put it in the bank like a normal person, I gave a holiday, I hope they remember me. :santa:
-
around 300.00 I'm gonna start in febuary and just have a place for xmas gifts not all but some.
-
Zero.
-
I don't spend as much as I used to when my nieces were little plus I have less people to buy for.
-
For christmas i try to get what family has asked for spend more on kids Well most gifts I make from the heart but in all like 500.00
-
We spend much more this Christmas because the year is pretty good for us and my husband have a better income this year. Thank God and Merry Christmas to all !
-
About 300 as well. Did a lot of saving online.
-
To be honest, I haven’t spent a dime for many years on Christmas gifts. :moneymouth: If you have young children in your household, it’s acceptable to buy gifts for them only if money is tight.
-
Honestly, it depends on the gift. I really can't set a budget though in my family we really aren't the fancy type. So during the holidays when I buy a gift, I look for a specific item for a specif person. When I find that item I look to see who has the cheapest and go from there. It's not a sky's the limit thing since I don't have very much to spend but I scrimp and save all year so I could have enough to figure out what item I want to get for my family.
-
The amount of money I spend on gifts vary. This year, however, I spent much less than last year.
-
I usually spend around $300-$350 but this year we didn't buy much. We just bought a house last month so we are trying to save as much as possible.
-
Honestly, I try not to spend too much. I set a limit on each person and that is based on how much money I have saved during the course of the year for the holidays.
-
This year not much and that it fine because I got a little something neat for each of my sons and that is all I bought for this year. I have a new house and plenty of bills so that takes up most of my income and I need to have work done on my car and I have to put responsibility first. My one son got my other son and I each a $10 gift card for chik-fil-a and we enjoyed a meal out and that was plenty.
-
that all depends on how much money I earn online that year. I only use the earnings from working online for Christmas :)
-
I didn't really keep track, but I know it was under $100 total. I only had four people to buy for (my mom, my sister, my dad, and my partner). No friends to speak of, at least not in the same state/country as me! And no co-workers. Hope everyone had/has a happy holidays! :present: :present: :present: :heart: :heart: :heart:

I rarely buy Christmas gifts but I do get my love one something
-
Each, time I get a new niece/nephew my Christmas spending gets lower! Have to spread what little monies I have around!
-
Spent a ton on presents this year about 3500. Was a spicy enchalada for sure
-
Spent less than last year but still way too much! Had gift cards from other survey sites that really helped this year. Going to try and save all the survey sites earning for 2018 Christmas
-
I spent anywhere between $200-$300 for Christmas
-

-

-
Unfortunately, more than I wanted to spend. $20 for each nephew and niece, $50 parents, 2 brothers, $200 on friends. So almost $600.
-
I spent very little this year yet got everyone in my family great gifts. I won most of my gifts on Dealdash lol I started in June and by the end of November I had a stockpile of gifts. Everyone loved them.
-
I spent about $150 - $250 for Christmas
-
Every year I try to get gifts that fit my budget, cause pay checks maybe more or less from the previous year. Some times a card is what I can give and other times its more.
-
This year I got surgery and had many medical payment to do, so I only bought my grand children and my daughters. I spent around 275.
-
Way more than I had intended. Just couldn't quit buying for my 9 month old grandson!
