How much do you spent on meat over Christmas?

I remember being horrified as a young adult that my parents spent £70 on Christmas meat. This was 1999 and was from the butchers. Turkey crown, ham, possibly beef, sausages and bacon. They were short of money and I couldn't believe how much it cost. That was for the 2 of them and my sister, brother in law and their young dc who'd barely eat any of it.
I dread to think what that would cost now especially as someone in the family has just spent £150 on turkey alone. I saw a headline about shortages this year but recall that in previous years too so it could just be typical scare tactics.

I am spending £35 at the butchers for a Turkey crown, pigs in blankets, sausages, bacon and a giant pork pie. It’s a deal for 4 people but very generous in amounts.

I’ll get a supermarket gammon too and probably some more pigs in blankets as the dc love them.

About £70, but feed about 12 usually so not brilliant but not too bad

A whole goose which I bought from a farm near my parents home which cost 20Euro ( not in the UK ) and a whole duck from the same farm for 5Euro.
A total of 25E.
Both are residing in the freezer.
