Will anybody else not get any Christmas presents?

My parents have said that they know I'm skint, so we won't bother exchanging presents this year. DDs too little. DDs dad's horrid and abusive. My friends aren't exchanging gifts afaik. Which I'm happy about tbh because I am really broke, and need to spend any spare money I have on DD. It's my birthday in a few weeks as well and highly doubt I'll receive anything. Not that I expect it. But might hint to DDs nursery teachers that I'd love a card!

I just keep seeing posts about boots 3 for 2 bath sets and stuff, and people being annoyed about getting them. And I just think, god that would make my day! Blush anybody else presentless this year?

P.S disclaimer, I know - first world problems. I have bigger things to worry about. Have had to borrow some money to make rent this month due to no maintenance and new job wage problems. Feel very lucky I had already got my little DD everything on her list (she's only 3, so had asked Santa for a bath bomb, Lego, chocolate coins and a toy mouse Grin)

Hello everyone

We've had a number of reports from people concerned about this thread so, as we usually do in these circs, we're putting our heads round the door with some important reminders.

Right now we can't see any evidence to indicate that the OP isn't above board – if we did, we'd remove the thread straight away. But the truth is that, sadly, we at MNHQ can't know with 100% certainty that any poster is genuine, no matter who they are or how long they have been here. As frustrating as it is, we're not able to vouch for anyone here.

So we always ask everyone to remember that not everyone on the internet is who they say they are – and remind folk not to give more to another poster, either financially (in cash or gifts) or emotionally (in time or care and support) than they'd be prepared to lose if things went wrong.
