Onceuponatime Posted November 11, 2010 Share Posted November 11, 2010 How will you be spending money this Christmas? Are you feeling the pinch, trying to stay out of debt, or going ahead as usual? I can't seem to spell curious right today. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
~Jo Posted November 11, 2010 Share Posted November 11, 2010 We could spend the same but we have decided that we need to cut back. I don't like Christmas to be about what you are getting but I do love to give my children gifts. I read on the board about someone that does this: 1. Something you want 2. Something you need 3. Something to play with 4. and something to read So we're going with that this year and then we also have stockings (those are fun!) and we also have the tradition of home-made PJs to open on Christmas Eve.

Prairie~Phlox Posted November 11, 2010 Share Posted November 11, 2010 I put as usual, but we really don't spend a lot to start with, maybe $30/child. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OnTheBrink Posted November 11, 2010 Share Posted November 11, 2010 Happily, the furnace folks will take payments, and I get a bonus and holiday pay this year, so Christmas will happen here! :D I think I'll be able to spend what I normally spend on the kids.

Gwenhwyfar Posted November 11, 2010 Share Posted November 11, 2010 voted 'other' ~ because i don't know yet... we're last minute christmas shoppers and my dh is the one who makes the money & deals with whatever bills there are - so i'm not sure yet what we'll have to work with. i'll know closer to december. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gwenhwyfar Posted November 11, 2010 Share Posted November 11, 2010 I don't celebrate Christmas. :P So... Other. i figure that if you'd find questions or comments crazy offensive, you prolly wouldn't *say* anything in the first place, so i'm just gonna be nosy and ask 'why not?' *curious* Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
