How many gift do you give each member of your family? I try to give them two each and one might be the big one and a smaller one. The kids get so much from all the other family members that they dont know what to do with them.

We spend to much at Christmas time on gifts...we did cut back this year and it worked out much better. We look for the bargain deals. Nothing wrong with that they are getting good quality items..clothing at an even better price. We will cut back even more next year...

we do that too, but another great way is to keep an eye on sales all year round. if you see something on sale get it and put it up, you never know who that will make happy when christmas comes. makes the shopping less when it comes to that time of year. my sister inlaw told me to do that and it helps alot

Family members get 1 gift, usually a gift card or money. Kids are grown and married so it gets more expensive as the family grows.
