I have a 3 year old daughter and have yet to spend more than £50 on a present for her whether that's birthday or little bits.
Most of her things like cot, toys etc have been second hand and clothes are from Primark or supermarkets.
Purely because I know she'll outgrow them soon or because she does receive a lot from family and I don't want to set a trend.
My husbands ex on the other hand has spent a lot on her son (my SS) and birthdays and christmases tend to be very expensive for us all.
But, it's her daughters birthday this week who's just turning 5 and shes spent an eye watering £300 on a switch for her?!
I mean come on, is this the actual norm for families now?
