[QUOTE="Hound dog, post: 224995, member: 84"] This is going to be the first xmas in a while that I've made it under the 500.00 mark. Which is saying alot as the family is growing, not getting smaller.:raspberry-tounge: And there were presents to buy for K, her husband, and Kayla, Alex, and Evan too. husband has been telling me for the past 6 + months that I've been holding onto money so tight I've got the Presidents screaming for mercy. :rofl: Yup. That's what I've been doing. Oh, and it doesn't help that I have Darrin's birthday added into the mix for december either. I'm just about done shopping. I've only got Nichole, husband, and mother in law to buy for. And to pick up the gift card and xmas card to send it in for K and her husband. I'm rather proud of myself. I found the bulk of the grands presents on sale. The family went in together for easy child's gift since it's so expensive. Travis actually told me something to buy him, and heeded the 20.00 limit I set on him. So he got what he wanted. sister in law got a truck hitch for 20 bucks. (still can't believe that's what he really wanted lol) And Nichole has picked 3 things within the 20 dollar range for me and easy child to pick from. Oh, and the topper........This includes the 90.00 it cost me to send the presents to missouri. Thanks to the kids all pitching in 20.00 a piece to help with the cost. And still, everyone has gotten something they really wanted. So how did you all do?? [/QUOTE]
