How much have you spent on, or are you going to spend on Christmas this year? - Page 2 - YorkieTalk.com Forums

Well I was going to say $200-$300 but now that you mention airline tickets...it's costing me almost $900 to fly out my sister and my newphews so that I can meet the new baby. Then of course we will go to Disney Land, Hollywood, Midevil times etc. As for presents for my son and my 3 nephews we decided they would rather have lots of small presents instead of a few big presents. I just got out of the navy so it's been Wal-mart, Big Lots, and the dollar store for me. So I guess more is less in this case as in more presents for less money. Big things would cost a fortune to ship anyways. It also makes unwrapping longer, which is more fun

I also did go out on Black Friday (I stood in line at WAL-MART for the first time ever!) The line wrapped around the store. But I got alot of cool presents like Barbies, light sabers, and cabage patch dolls for only $5.

I will probably spend $500 or less this year. And most of that is for my hubby. I posted before that he is very ill and this will probably be our last Christmas with him, so the boys and I are trying to make it extra special. The boys actually said not to get them anything and let them spend more on their dad. Of course he is getting things to make his life easier and more enjoyable. Electric razor, warming throw and a dvr so that he can tape the programs that he likes when he has to go to bed and can't watch them. Of course the boys are going to have stuff to open, and we always go shopping the day after Christmas with my Mom so will make sure they have a little money to spend. This year more than any is more about spending time with the ones you love and not how many presents we can buy.
