Christmas shop well for less

[NRPDad]

Currently watching

£3500 on baubles for multiple trees. £1800 spent on memory baubles bought on their Disney holidays! £300 rugby tops for their twin boys

Lo and behold I bet Steph and Alex if they had a 'normal' Christmas like most people they'd save £15k+. What a surprise!

Anybody else watching?

I thought the two guys were lovely. I can sort of see why they spend so much on all 4 boys but some of the other spending just didn't make sense.

Why would you replace an electric toothbrush every Christmas? Why would you spend so much on an electric toothbrush anyway? Also £18 for handwash!!! Some of the cheap ones smell lovely.

Surely they must have either been born rich or come into money? I don't know anyone that would spend that much on things like handwash, Christmas crackers, baubles etc and I know people ranging from not that well off (like me and DH) to fairly well off

It was a silly premise for a programme because the majority of people who would watch the programme wanting to get ideas on how to save don't spend that stupid amount of money in the first place!

It kind of annoyed me to be honest. Some sensible advice to normal folk struggling at Christmas would hve been a good idea and instead we got two proligate spenders (£350 toothbrush chucked every year, WTAF!) who seemed clueless about what normal people pay for normal stuff.

It was like going to Liberty and telling people to go to Aldi instead as its cheaper, no shit Sherlock.

However, aside from that, lovely guys doing a great job.
