Bloody nuts ! Pollution/landfill/general horrid materialism .......buy 50 goats for those in the developing world ! What you are doing buying 50 bits of tat I don't know - what a dreadful example to your kids.

My 3 children.

My parents and step parents.

Sometimes a prezz for one or two of my close friends.

I love giving presents, but I prefer to do that on birthdays.

18 adults
11 Children

Even though I have a list I didn't realise there were quite so many! Shock We have already ditched buying gifts for DH's siblings and just buy for the children.
And 2 nephews have birthdays in december.

Thanks to Reasties christmas bargain thread I am already underway and many of the presents I have to buy are just small token gifts plus I will make a fair few too.

9 down, only another 20 to go...

Ragwort - I really love Christmas shopping actually, and didn't realise we bought for so many until I just counted it all up! Usually DH and I go somewhere like Kingston one weekend and Bluewater the next and just get it all done in two big goes. They're really lovely Christmassy days, we stop for hot chocolate or lunch, we shove everything under / on the pram and make trips back to the car so we're not laden with stuff and we make sure we don't wear huge coats! Grin
I can't leave anyone out, as I have a huge family, lots of neices and nephews and cousins that all go to my parents house for Christmas and everyone buys for everyone. The presents we buy for adults are usually small and joke like, or else something like food or drink.

(And just for the record, I don't buy 50 pieces of tat, to whoever said that! Wink)

14 adults. 2 are friends, the rest is immediate family. No children in our family.

We have this year decided to buy for the in laws cat as well because I saw this and couldn't resist Grin
