Do you buy a christmas gift for your partner / husband / wife / spouse?

My husband and I decided not to buy anything for each other this year. It is much more important that we get to spend the time together and neither of us knows what to buy the other. We rather save the money and use it for a holiday in the summer. Are you buying a gift for your partner?

Yes, I usually do buy my husband a few presents. I am not sure if I will be able to this year because I have not be able to find a job. I have been out work since I had graduated with my Bachelor's Degree this past summer. I have a degree in elementary education. I was hoping to make money online, but I have not been too successful.

So sorry to hear that. Maybe you can replace it with homemade gifts so you'll still have a nice christmas?

That's nice. You show that you thought of them - it doesn't always have to be a big gift.

Well, is singles and young people like me can post a response? LOL. I'm not yet married or engaged but I'm in a relationship and I don't know if I'll buy a present for my girlfriend, but I think I will and I'm saving up some money and trying to earn here on the internet so I wouldn't need to ask some money to my parents. LOL.

Of course you can! If you haven't talked about it, it certainly is safer to buy your girlfriend at least a small gift!

That's the most difficult. What to buy??? That's part of the reason we decided to stop buying each other christmas gifts.
