    about £750, argh, but i did start in early october which is how i have only manged to run out of money now, woo. About £300 quid of that was on my boyfriend though, i wanted to get him something really good this year cause for his 21st i was a bit skint.
    If people wouldn't divroce/split up/get new partners christmas would be a lot cheaper :p

    About £110. 30 quid on each of my parents, £17 on my brother and about £40on my boyfriend althought I haven't bought him much yet.
    I too am a poor student. I always feel bad considering the hassle my mum goes to in buying me nice presents.

    I spent £100 on 4 people. Half hour in Argos did the trick last night. Sadly though all the good stuff had sold out so i had to get them the shit no one else wanted :D

    I once bought decent gifts for my friends. Got some of the most utter crap I have ever seen in turn... Next year I lowered the amount I spent drastically and received more trash (one of my best friends even gave me a set of earrings when I don't even have any piercings! And one of those free perfume tests..). I've felt inclined to ask them to rather just not give me anything this year. So I spent the minimum I could on them.

    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:

    Oh gawd knows. Not even going to try and work it out, if I do then I might as well shank myself with a sprig of holly right now.
