Default Christmas Shopping (Bah Humbug!)

How much does everybody roughly spend on Presents each Christmas?


I am a little scrooge and only spend about £300 in total. lol. but they are good gifts.



(please minus my Karma, it's a good thing, it for a game, i need minus karma to win).

Me and my friends just suggest not to buy each other anything so we don't have to fork out, so I only really buy for a few friends - bout £20 each and then family - Mum: £100ish and sister: £50ish.

Everyone I know is fairly sensible when it comes to Christmas which makes it more enjoyable. Instead of shopping it's nice to work in the Christmas hype and enjoy some more money.

I spend the most on my mum, about £250.
My nan about £100.

Usually my sister about £150 - but she's been a right cow to me all year so she's getting £50 this year.

Brother's about £30 each (x5)

Dad about £100.
Aunt about £30.
Friends about £20 each.
