Most expensive item you bought for a Christmas gift this year?  |
|
With the economy circling the drain, I am interested in whether people are really cutting back on their holiday shopping this year. My husband and I bought Nintendo Wii for my 9 y.o. son ($200), and an iPod Nano Chromatic for my 7 y.o. daughter ($150 plus $50 in accessories like a case, etc.). Those are the kids' major gifts. We also bought them several less expensive toys and games, as well as lots of clothes.
What is the most expensive gift you will give this holiday season? What did it cost you?

3. DonnaLawson (2801) | 1 year ago | Thank goodness my son is over that stage, he is now grown and married.. We did go through all of the game systems and they were not cheap.. Now that he is older, married and out on his own, I no longer have to buy the expensive gifts, so this year I bought him a Bluetooth for his phone, and a hoodie, which he has mentioned needing and his favorite cologne, which is fairly expensive also .. I also bought a few of the less expensive items that he has mentioned and have quite a few gifts wrapped for him and his wife.. Most of the gifts are for his house, being newlyweds gives me an edge on the gift buying, and they are gifts to both of them, not just the one.. Thanks heavens he is over the games systems, as I don't think that I could afford another one.. The most expensive gift is the hoodie, it was almost 50.00, and that was a bit much but when buying for the "Big and Tall" man, you have to pay more..

6. lilybug (15437) | 1 year ago | The most expensive gift I bought this Christmas was a $30 game for my son for his PS2. I probably spent $100 on him total. My daughters most expensive gift was $8. She is still little though and does not care about how much a gift costs.

| 7. michiganrawfood (75) | 1 year ago | I'm not getting anything this year except a $25 gift certificate. My extended family is really large so everyone draws a name and gets whatever the person put on their card, and the limit is $25. Even that will be tough for me this year, but I dont' feel guilty about not buying anything. I don't do Christmas cards, or wrap things either. I love the holidays, but I find all that stuff makes me stressed out so I just don't do it. I think if you enjoy buying gifts and can afford it, enjoy writing cards, and wrapping and decorating...than do it. But if you don't, or can't, than don't do it either because the real gift is spending time with your family you don't get to see the rest of the year!

8. mlhuff12 (404) | 1 year ago | Be that I don't have much money, this gift isn't that expensive. I bought my mom a new dirt devil vacuum cleaner. I bought this at a discount store, kind of like TJ Maxx and Marshalls. So I got a very good deal. It was worth $250, but was for sale at $99. But I am only paying half of that because it is from both me and my sister. So then the most for me to spend on one gift is only $50.
