Christmas Budget...

How much do you spend on each of your kids? I spent about $130 so far total for both of my boys.... they are 3 years old and 22 months. but I feel like I should have spent more because they only have 4 gifts each... now I feel bad


Just wanted to get an idea of how much you usually spend and how many gifts you end up with.

This year, $50 plus stocking stuffers

I spent about $200. I only have one kid, though.

We spent 200 altogether for our 4 1/2 year old and 2 1/2 year old. So it evens out 100 a piece.

This year it was probably around $250 per kid. But they each got a bike and helmet which took up about half of that budget.

They each have 5-6 other little things as well. Plus 1 present that they are giving each other.

about $150 on my dd,But my dd is 2 and she is spoiled!
a barbie jeep $89
leapster $20 black friday
game $12
Little mommy doll $16
a few other small things

I got my hubby a tv for his birthday which is a month before Christmas (black friday $200) and an xbox 360 for Christmas (split the cost with my brother so $150 each).

1 kid and about 500

I don't do dollar amount. I go by gift amount. This year, we did 4 small gifts each, 2 big gifts for both of them and then they each got their own stocking stuffers. My MIL got them a smurf load of toys but my parents will be getting them clothes (which I prefer). My kids aren't really big on toys.

Oh and we purchased things for 3 kids ages 5, 4, and 2.

We didn't do a budget this yr because DS gifts are getting more expensive. We did buy them the same amount of gifts though and tried to make as many toys as possible price match wise.

I didn't set a budget for them, just made sure they had the same amount of gifts.

My son (3) we spent about 350 on and my daughter (7 months) we spent like 160 on. She got "baby toys" so they weren't nearly as much as his gifts.

I have one child. I've spent roughly 400-500 on him.

Ds1 has way more toys but we spent more on dd. Growing up my parents had 8 kids and our limit was $200 a piece.

I have 3 kids and spent around 900$. And They get about 5 gifts from us, and 9-10 from santa. Except my 1 year yr old that got 5 from us and 3 from santa.

1 kid...

$400 iPad
$20 farm toy
$15 iron man mask
$60 imaginex castle
$14 toys for the castle
$10 helicopter


And I think that's about it

i spent only $300 on my kids this year. they each have 4 individual gifts and one shared gift from santa.

I usually spend more then double that... But this year we are spending christmas morning with my family... so since my mom got them a like 5 things each.... i didnt need to spend a lot.

eta: i have 4year old and almost 2year old DDs
