Dh and I have been together about 12 years, in the early years we did each other stockings with little bits and pieces in them and bought each other lovely surprises and swore that we would never become one of 'those' couples - the ones that either didn't bother with Christmas presents or who asked each other what they wanted.
Well further down the line we seem to be going down the 'those' couples route and I really don't want to but don't see an alternative. We have a budget of £50, which for us is a LOT of money and seem to be stuck in a rut of buying the same things each year - book, dvd, aftershave, music which we add to our collection of ever growing 'stuff'.
I love us opening presents from each other on Christmas morning after the children have openend theirs, but we really seem to be stuck in a rut and money is very tight - what do you do?
