I have 5 brothers and sisters, 11 nieces and nephews, parents, and a few friends. Costs me the national budget of a small country every year.

My parents, gavins parents, my niece, his 3 kids and Skye.

SKye counts for about 10 people a the moment though, given how much we have got her. Its my first year of being santa properly and I think I might have gone a bit OTT. Not even finished yet. Its really stupid because we are insanely skin, but I cant stop buying stuff for her..and we are pretty much living on beans and toast because of my compulsive spending :joker:

A few family members and a girlfriend, so sod all basically.

One of the few times in the year it pays off to have no friends :hugesmile:

None, I'm probably about to make my parents sound awful :laugh: but tbh by the time I was about 14 I'd lost all interest in asking for things and getting them whether it was for a birthday or for Christmas, always felt a bit guilty just getting stuff for absolutely no reason so over the years we've just wound down on the whole present giving thing; nobody ever wants anything, we're not doing Christmas presents this year at all. My brother wanted a new TV so he went halfs on it with my parents. I don't want or need anything and neither do my parents.

Never had friends who do the whole present swapping thing either, usually the 23rd-27th of December I'm in my house more or less the entire time and then celebrate the period leading up to and including Hogmanay with friends

10+

Far too much really that's the downfall of having a huge family, 14 of those are kids/teenagers and that's before we even count anyone else, plus 2 people in my family are pregnant again atm so that's another 2 extra kids next year :bored:

..around 200, but a lot of those I only spend about 10p on...maybe 20-25 are more expensive family/friends etc...

Sometimes I think my parents have engineered these family fall outs just so they don't have to buy Christmas presents for extended family, sounds like a pain in the arse buying presents for nephews and nieces and grandparents and whoever else
