If people wouldn't divroce/split up/get new partners christmas would be a lot cheaper
I too am a poor student. I always feel bad considering the hassle my mum goes to in buying me nice presents.
Family however... :S I've bought the most for mum, will participate in a portion of dad's expensive gift.
It's no doubt over 200 quid, maybe around 300. I've kinda lost sight of how much I've spent on gifts as I have spent at least equally much on my horse and I just don't want to know the damage.
My ray of light is that I got a salary correction in December which doubled my salary for this month. Great timing. :shocking:
£45 bro and sis
£20 grandparents
£120ish boyfriend
£20 friends (secret santa)
All in all about £245ish , hence now I'm completely skint.
Tenner each on me ma and da and brother and sister, fuck it I'm skint like, would spend more if I had the money like.
I don't really believe big in Christmas.
My boy and my nephew get spoiled.
Got the mrs a new contract phone, perfume, make up, boots, an enlarged framed photo of her and the baby, random other things..
Spent too much again, next year wont be as I'm saving for new house deposit.
