(No negative comments please, yes I spend a fortune, yes I have gone overboard, yes they deserve it and no they are definitely not spoiled, they are amazing fabulous kids)

I can't believe people are getting their kids so much for Christmas!

My stockings to my kids consisted of fruit and chocolate coins.

And mostly secondhand presents which I tried to buy in their original boxes.

I found most of the things they wanted were fad stuff they didn't care for after 2 weeks. Total waste of money.

Good for you, but I only have one teen and I earn a City law firm salary so why shouldn't I get her what she wants for Christmas even if it's "just a fad" 🤷‍♀️

Only just started shopping but my list for dd14 is…

hollywood mirror
squishmallow
Elf make up items
Personalised name necklace from etsy
gold bracelet from hot diamonds
hair straightners
body sprays
hoody
baby yoda note book
smart watcworeless headphones
fine tip art pens
crystals
lego minifigure set
some mystery books
thigh high fluffy socks
heatless hair curler
some chocolates

stocking is usually just fun random bits i pick up that i think she will like!

Thanks for sharing your lists. Lots of ideas for me as my 13 yr old doesn’t have any ideas at the moment.

So much for people not having a lot of money! I've never had surplus money (never will now) to spend like that! Luckily, my family members (3 teens, 6 adults, 2 young kids and a baby) have never been materialistic. They don't ask for anything, they are happy with whatever they get

Hi, it was from Etsy - the seller is called ‘coloured cork boards’. Lots of colours, 10% off and free delivery.

Ha!
The competitive no spend gift givers are out in force, I see!

On MN, you MUST get your dc's gifts out of a skip, ideally found under a dead fox
🤣🤣

Most people I know plan and budget for Christmas to give their kids/loved ones nice things
🤷‍♀️

It's not a weird thing to do, honestly

My 14DD is getting.

• England away shirt with player name on number on the back
• Sheet Face masks
• Dior bracelets
• Chocolate orange
• Orange Toberone bar
• Magnetic lashes x 2 sets
• 2 x Pandora charms

Plus I brought a Elle beauty advent calendar as you get a monthly subscription to the magazine too

What are the bubble tea kits please? I have some nieces who I think would like the sound of that! What's a decent set to get?

I've got my 12 yr old Neice a costa mug with a full size tin of costa hot chocolate as she loves hot chocolate and she'll feel very grown up having her own costa ones! 😆 they are £12 for the gift set in costa shops.

And even if there is no suggestion for cheap presents go and make your own thread!! Jesus its the same crap every year from people judging how people spend hard earned money, good for you for buying second hand i wouldn’t dream of buying second hand for my children at christmas but i don’t judge people who do, each to your own and all that. Thanks for this thread got some good ideas for my overly spoilt children who will be bored with the "tat" in 2 weeks

Some great ideas here, thanks for sharing!

@DonPeggyJoan i have got DD a bubble tea kit from Amazon previously and she loved it. It’s her birthday soon and a friend has got her one from Asda. She likes the popping bubble ones.

I have DD 15 (SEN) and DD nearly 13. I’ve got them tickets to the Strictly Come Dancing tour. Other than that, so far I have books for the youngest as she’s a bookworm and a bubble tea squishy. Eldest DD has just got into Guardians of the Galaxy so got her a Lego Groot. Good thread for inspiration OP, thank you.

This is where I've ordered for my DD. Have had kits from them before and it's always gone down well. Also bought the reusable cup and straw from here https://www.manhuacha.com/products/customisable-bubble-tea-kit

After reading here and some help from lovely posters on my own thread, my DD (13) is getting

Main presents from me and extended family:
Electric wax burner that matches her room and wax melts
Large band poster
Urban decay make up

Murder mystery books
Venus flytrap

Stocking
Fluffy socks
Chocolate Santa
Back scratcher
Eyeliner
tenzies game
Mini jigsaw

Wow some brilliant ideas here. Makes me feel quite stingy though!

Hot glue gun
Rolife model set
Heated throw
Glass bird paperweight
Pretty thermal socks (M&S)

I love reading what everybody is getting!

@Borris what is the "spot squeezer"?! My DS might appreciate one of those!

I ordered so many things from people’s lists already- love this thread 😁

I wasn't being judgey! Apologies if it came across that way. If anything I'm a little jealous of what others can afford.
I LOVE buying presents and would happily spend a fortune at Christmas if I could. I say go for it!

I'm on here looking for inspiration for my nieces and so far have a few things to look at so thank you all for sharing your lists

Plscemarking but feeling v inadequate lol!

@thaegumathteth can you recommend a bead spinner? I've not heard of them before but having looked at them I think my DD might like this. She loves making bracelets out of the clay bead sets on Amazon & I've been after something crafty for her at Xmas so this might fit the bill.

I'm sorry I can't I just bought one with decent reviews but haven't used it yet

@LifeInAHamsterWheel It's in the picture below. I'm not sure if it's any good but I'm hoping it'll be better than the tweezers that she currently is using!
