Tipex Posted November 12, 2010 Share Posted November 12, 2010 Camera = £150 Laptop = £350 ish Stocking fillers=?? And you say you are skint? LINK That isn't struggling to make ends meet as you would have us believe. Our kids got somewhere around £100 for presents at Christmas (two of them) Now the grandkids get £20 each (six of them) Think you just busted her.

warrior8 Posted November 12, 2010 Share Posted November 12, 2010 Two daughters,laptop,i-pod touch,plus extras probably looking at £1000,very over the top,but only trying to give them what i could never have...... Gosh I think that is way way too much. You are teaching them that they can have whatever they want and thats how kids end up spoilt brats. That is probably some people's yearly salary in some countries. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
InBlack Posted November 12, 2010 Author Share Posted November 12, 2010 Not busted as I have nothing to hide! Was just wondering how much other people spent on their kids. Some of my child's peers are getting far more than mine is, much more - I was just wondering where my spend was in the grand scheme of things. As for teaching children what the meaning of Christmas is....isn't it a Pagan festival stolen by the Christians in order to rid the world of an old religion? - that's my understanding of it!

Guest Posted November 12, 2010 Share Posted November 12, 2010 Both mine will get well under £100 each this year £75 if they are lucky. Unfortunately paying bills and a roof over our heads comes first. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You don't sound like you are stuggling if you can afford all that for a christmas present. Its more than I spend on all my relatives and partner together.
